~~~ except for how important this election was (is) as accurately described by those who called it exactly in this thread (Rich and Reggie); our numbers are dropping to where there are just over 1000 members, including associate members and, if that number continues to dwindle I cannot see how the club can survive as we know it now -- especially our convention.

Rejuvenation doesn't happen on its own; we had the opportunity when the door was open for us to walk in and make some changes. It didn't happen...

Let's hope our club has a big turnout at the ANA Convention in Chicago; member tables, exhibits and signing up new members... I don't know where else we can turn to other than what we are already part of...
