The 2013 World Union Trial was voted on back in 2001-2002 time frame. It was talked about at the first meeting when Gail Hardcastle became President (Jan. 2008) but I don't remember if anything was voted on then and I believe it also came up at the July 2008 meeting. When I had to run the meeting for Gail in April 2009 I realized that we needed to begin planning for our 2 big events and we had a meeting in July in Lexington to start the ball rolling.

The members are never asked......you elect the board to conduct the business and that's it. If you have opinions now, it may be too late. I think contracts have been signed.

I have to admit, I just went over minutes from the board for the last year, and maybe it was decided before then. ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2010.
