ED,
THANKS FOR RESPONDING. NOT BEING AS CLOSE TO THINGS ARE YOU ARE, I'M SURE ALOT OF THINGS HAPPENED THAT THE AVERAGE PARTICIPANT DOESN'T KNOW ABOUT.
I WOULD IMAGINE SOME PEOPLE EVEN COMPLAINED ABOUT THINGS YOU HAVE NO CONTROL OF. AS A RETIRED POLICE OFFICER, YOU KNOW YOU CAN'T PLEASE ALL OF THE PEOPLE AND WE SHOULDN'T EVEN TRY.
YOU ARE CORRECT WHEN YOU STATED THE FLING STARTED OVER SOME COOKIES AND WITH A SMALL GROUP OF PEOPLE. THE SMALL FAMILY SURE HAS GROWN AND FRIENDS HAVE BEEN MADE NATIONALLY AND INTERNATIONALLY.
I'M ALL FOR FLING #4 -- I THINK MOST PEOPLE KNOW WHAT A JOB IT IS FOR YOU -- THE AMOUNT HOURS AND COMMITMENT YOU AND YOUR FAMILY PUT INTO THIS MUST BE AMAZING. IT'S EASY FOR ME TO SAY, LETS HAVE #4, BUT I DON'T DO THE WORK--YOU AND YOUR FAMILY DO ALONG WITH SOME VOLUNTEERS.
YOU BRING UP VALID QUESTIONS, ONES THAT ARE NOT EASLY ANSWERED AND ONE'S THAT PUT YOU UNDER THE GUN WHEN YOU TRY TO PLEASE EVERONE. I'M NOT SURE HOW TO ADDRESS THE ISSUES AND THE CONCERNS YOU HAVE. MAYBE THE THING TO DO IS PUT ALL OF THE ISSUES ON THE TABLE EVEN THE HIDDEN ONES AND THEN TAKE THEM ONE AT A TIME. MAYBE A BOARD OF DIRECTORS COULD BE APPOINTED TO HELP WORK THEM OUT.
WELL, ED WHATEVER HAPPENS I'M WITH YOU AND I KNOW YOU HAVE SOME MAJOR DECISIONS TO MAKE. IF I CAN BE OF ANY ASSISTANCE PLEASE LET ME KNOW.
MIKE
