Hey Leo, Scott here from the UUCS. It's great to see these two groups come together! I'm not active with the group since getting in to PIT for meetings is next to near impossible for me. Anyway, you have my vote, if it matters.

Hi, everyone!
 

 
This e-mail is to advise you all of the latest information about the
Humanist Community of Pittsburgh.
 

 
For a while now there have been informal discussions about the future of
HCP, especially vis-à-vis other likeminded groups in Pittsburgh. Last night
12/21/16, more formal discussion was held with some of our HCP members
(including the officers) and our counterparts from the Center for Inquiry
(CFI).
 

 
We discussed the possibility of our two groups merging. The joint assembled
group expressed our intention of setting up a transition process to aid in
moving forward to merger. We believe that such action will be to the mutual
benefit of both our groups as well as to the benefit of Freethought in
Pittsburgh.
 

 
To that end, the 5 HCP members including the two officers; President John
Burchfield and Secretary Leo Nagorski, voted on and passed four motions:
 

 
#1 To initiate the process with the intent of merger; with the stipulation
of HCP stakeholder approval.
 

 
#2 That the current HCP Board will continue in office for the interim period
until merger.
 

 
#3 That John Hooper be elected to fill the vacant Treasurer position on the
HCP Board.
 

 
#4 That Dana Morganroth be elected to serve as an interim Board member.
 

 
That is a summary of last night’s discussion.
 

 
Now, it is your turn! In accord with the first motion we passed, we want
your vote on this issue:
 

 
“A quorum of HCP members (including officers) is recommending that HCP
initiate a process to merge HCP with CFI.”
 

 
Please vote YES or No. Voting ends 12/26/16.
 

 
Thank-you.
 

 
Respectfully submitted,
 

 
Leo Nagorski, Secretary, Humanist Community of Pittsburgh

Thanks, Scott. I’ll register it. Who knows maybe when we get the merger worked out we could have a movable meeting in an area you can get to.

 

Leo
