Amy NOBODY that I know of is "lynching" anyone. IF there is a discrepancy , if there is a potential issue with any of the club's shows, policies etc, we have a right to discuss it. This is not a slam against any individuals not you, not anyone in this situation, so your defensiveness while completely understood, is not necessary. This is a problem, somewhere with the P and P regarding handling of futurities. This is a problem that now needs to be addressed, particularly in these very tough economic times when entries of any kind are pure gold to clubs and exhibitors. No one said you are doing a poor job, quite the contrary, I think everyone knows you are doing a very good job, including me. If we cannot discuss and show concern and we get instead "ohhhh we are all trying" and "we are just volunteers" then NOTHING will get solved when it comes up. Yes you and others volunteered. That is terrific, and comes with it's own headaches to be sure... but defensiveness when people are trying to get the the FACTS when there is a question is not helping.
