Ileana,
You and I disagree on a lot of things...but this time you have hit the nail
on the head...how can the board..after knowing for two years that Beaumont
was the ELECTED site all of a suden change?? Stinks to me. The board is
not supporting the local club who has already expended money and time
preparing for a National.
This really stinks. Think about it. What if your club was told they were a
National site???? and then just two years before...ooops, we changed our
minds??
