7. Sea-King District 2 Executive Director Report: Tom & Marilyn Doyle  Correspondence. None.  Board Philosophy. Because of an on-going controversy with one of our leagues, Tom asked the board to respond to his interpretation of the role of the District Board. The board acknowledged their understanding of their responsibilities as follows: board members represent their leagues. They should bring their league’s positions to the board meetings and promote and “sell” their league’s reasons for taking a particular stand on an issue. Then it is their responsibility to listen to the debate and make a decision that is in the best interest of the District and the kids in our district. That decision may be different from their league position if the debate sways the representative to believe that the District is best served by their new understanding.  Web Site: www.seaking2.com.
