Patty The persons that were involved that started up the whole mess are still alive,so I think it behooves us not to discuss it. The Club was split wide apart ,and all Board meetings had members attending with secret taping devices. Letters from the "Fly on the Wall" were circulated. It was a bad part of our early history,and we were disciplined for it. . No more should be said. We survived it,and built the membership to 6000.
