I understnad that some folks may be a little bit impatient ... and would like to know the actual date that the first shovel full of dirt will be taken out of the hole ... but as most CLUB MEMBERS know, this is a long term project.

In addition, nobody promised a brand spanking new building! The club may rent a store front in a downtown building initially, or maybe rent space in a Library or on a University campus. Perhaps some benefactor may step forward with a substantial contribution or a club memeber may bequeath a large collection ... or some other unforseen scenario. But there is no doubt in my mind that some day it's going to happen and I'm proud that the club has taken the first steps to accomplish that eventual goal.
