I know your show will be great! For anyone else who feels the need to say negative things about this National or any upcoming one please don't. You have an easy decision. You can either go or choose to stay at home. Thank you Beth....very considered comments. You are quite right about the work that goes into this. Deb Hokannen came down here in the spring of 04 right after we had checked Ford Park out. She was so impressed she wanted to come down immediately. Since the board meeting here in July 04 I honestly don't think a club has fought so hard for a national to the point of representation at most of the board meetings the past 4 years to ensure it did not get canned. We committed ourselves along with members of other clubs in Texas and even the local KC who have offered to assist us. We are not looking for pats on the back, but we are looking for people who want to come and look forward to a lot of fun and as our president just said a few days ago "the greatest show on earth". So come on down and let's all have a great show and great fun!
