I know those who are on the board. I know them well, and know they have the best interest of the club in mind, and do listen to the members. I find it hard to understand why the issues that have been brought up about shortening the national, etc. have not been addressed. I suspect the directors may be divided on this, and no strong point has been reached. I have faith it will be resolved, and maybe this is something we need to push. We need to make our ideas heard, and our directors informed. As for a party on Monday night, I see no problem there, you need not come if it is too difficult. But, I do agree, we need to start on Wednesday until the shows grow to the point where we need the extra time again. I used to hate getting to dinner at eight, and to bed at midnight, and up at five the next day. But, those days are gone, and we need to eliminate some of the extra stuff. It will upset some, but we need to find a way to make the nationals available for everyone.
