I wanted to respond to AC’s gracious move of stepping aside to allow the RCIA to flourish. I know things
have been tough here for several months due to the perceived conflict of interest AC acknowledged. I
wanted to step forward as the founder of this board and as President of the association and thank AC
for this selfless display.
It is important to point out that although there was a perception that AC had taken advantage of the
RCIA and of me that in-fact none of that was true. AC did what he was asked to do and communicated
with the board of directors on each and every thing he did. On the topic of AC owning the corporation
this was an unfortunate fact. However he was tasked with starting the corporation by the BOD and did
EXACTLY what he was asked. At no time did AC ever profit from being an executive officer of the
association! AC was holding the stock of the org until we made up our minds whither or not we wanted
to start a 501c3 corp. or move the current corps stock into the ownership of the members these things
take time and AC was willing to take the risk of ownership.
I for one am very glad AC was able to spend this short time helping with the initial organization of the
RCIA Association as our VP. His ability to step things up and work in my place as I battled health issues
and his business background and other talents were of great use. I hope AC will stay on in an advisory
capacity so the RCIA can continue to draw on his nearly 20 years of experience in the roof cleaning
industry. Good Luck AC, we appreciate you!

Well said. Look forward to review AC's vendor products for roof cleaners.

The top of the day to you.

Thanks Chris! Your a great friend.

AC

You too AC, thank you for all you have done for RCIA, and we wish you the best of luck in all your affiars!

So its like that. Chris I follow you. Been trying to save something.

 Well. Do we have people for these places?

 

Some members here are very short term goal oriented and distrustful that they just chased off one of the best chances of RCIA becoming anything.  Chasing of talented people just because they may make a buck off members by being a vendor did not further our cause.  It will set it back several years.  Are you'll going to step up to the plate and fill AC's vacant shoes?  Almost every organization that I have known of has had vendors on the BOD.  There has to be a reason to want to be on the BOD while everyone else is cleaning roofs & making good money, and put up with everyone's crap. 

Another nail in RCIA's coffin...

Good Bye,
AC

I choose also my words carefully, and will not use this board recklessly. (as some have)

As some have? Are you talking about me? What the $@*€ is that supposed to mean?

Just kidding. Good post!

AC: Sorry I didn't personally do more for the organization. Gary, Chris, Bill, And AC: Thank You Thank You Thank You.

It is my prayer that this organization will grow from this, not die as some perceive, but flourish from it in the near future. I choose to continue supporting this organization. I choose also my words carefully, and will not use this board recklessly (as some have).

There is nothing wrong with questioning the leadership of any organization, but there comes a time you have to trust those in charge. Chris trusted AC, and that should have been enough for all of us.

I never understood the personal attacking.

To the extraordinarally critical and short-sighted: Please take this time to call on your vast resources and limitless time to pick up the flag that has now fallen, and press on.

May God Bless The Former BOD, the future BOD, and the rcia.

LOL, RCIA DIE  Not on your life I ran it before, and I will run it again, with some help. Certifications WILL be happening shortly, in fact we have a final meeting about them in 15 minutes! Stay Tuned 

 

What a SHAME!

AC,
You were not liked by many....but I am sure you've had better people dislike you.
Good luck and give me a call sometime. We still need to do lunch!

AC
 If you ever make it to Long Island and need help with anything. Please feel free to call me. I will be glad to help you anyway I can. Good Luck with your Soft wash Systems.
