Hi All,
Well its been a long road organizing ILTCO, but were finally there!
The organizing committee (OC) has been at it for 11 months, with about 2000
email messages on the OC list alone. Weve had several face-to-face meetings and
over 30 hours of conference calls! With that said we have discussed and
rediscused many topics exploring each from the perspective of new club - old
club, big club - small club, from the angle of how to govern to what
relationships to foster with other entities such as; NMRA, GATS, LEGO Direct
etc.
Our goal was not to have all the answers but to create a framework that can
accommodate and support different types of memberships, future decisions about
governing, and new relationships. We know that there will be holes uncovered as
we grow from zero members to the current breath of clubs out there today and
perhaps even more as we grow into the future. We ask that members take an active
role in participation and help strengthen the organization. L-gauge is already
an active and viable model railroading alternative that you all have made that
happen. Being organized will only cement its position as one of the fastest
growing model railroading alternatives.
So what does this all mean...
Individual membership enrollment is now open! So please drop by
ILTCO and join now by clicking on the word and
JOIN found on the right side of the
page just below the gray horizontal menu bar. We encourage you (as required by
the membership application) to read the Bylaws,
Policies & Procedures, and the
Terms of Service. These along with the
FAQ will answer many questions you may have. For
further questions please ask your club representatives, they have been through
this process already. If you are not a club member and are joining as an
individual you may submit questions directly at QandA@ILTCO.org.
Thanks for your patience and we hope that you would consider joining
the ILTCO.
Steve Barile - President
