Re: timer


I'm gonna be an ass here, not intentionaly but I can feel it coming.
The self insured excuse is wearing thin. WE want to pretend lie were a
big well organized club. Well we need to acctually act like it and
stop talking about it. A display is one of the things that woyuld
help. There is expendable cash available. It may not be quite enough
for a display at this very moment, but if we continue to gain like
this last month we will be in good shape very soon. This is something
that can take us one more step to being the club most of us think we
already are. Hell Dothan(wiregrass) has a display and to listen to
everyone they are so podunk they shouldn't even be able to hold there
own events. Now I know that I wasn't there when the trailer got stolen
so I can't possible understand. However I was at the last board
meeting when it was brought up that there was enough money to consider
investing some. I know this was not the sort of investment thought,
but this can be seen as an investment in the we can acctually look
like we know what we are doing and have the first timers come back and
run(read spend more money) with us. Let the flaming begin and this is
directed an no one particular person.
