They seemed to be grouped into UT, CO and AZ. That means a LOT of driving for a very large exhibitor population in CA and I imagine, with gas prices....waaaay less entries.... What's up with that? There was a time when there were many board members from California. Now, not so much. Two that come to mind. Gail and David. Well, Sharon, but we know that she is always fighting other battles. Also, David and Gail try to deny it. We Californians haven't had a National in a bit. We were to have one years ago, and it went to Florida. We do not have the ear of the Parent Club right now, or any other body parts either. Dave is a voice of reason, but while we consider him from California, he actually claims he is in Nevada. We who live in the land of fuit and nuts need to speak out. I know most of us are so very passive, and hate to be noticed, but it is time we changed. I say, stand up, speak out, and carry a big wand. Power to the people. Make peace not war. Hell no, we won't go. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
