It is important to realize what a contribution to our club this program has been. Lew has taken a great idea and made it a central event of our national. Anything that helps the members enjoy this sport, and work towards a goal is an addition to our sport. Rather than find fault with the program, we should all thank those who work so hard to find ways to improve our club. That is what the Regional Club competition has done. Some Regional Clubs with less than ten members may have a problem, but they too can enjoy the sport. They may have less points, but winning is not the goal. Fun, success and friendship, that is what it is all about.
