Overall this thread is disenchanting. I understand the issue at hand, What I don't understand is why some of this information needed to go out to the entire membership. It seems some people are using this as a place to vent or offer up their specific preferences, It all seems unnecessary to me, BVARC has shown it is more than capable of putting on a first class event. I am not sure how this one seems out of reach.
Might I suggest the interested parties call a meeting and stop spamming the entire club with this nonsense? Have Fun, Jeff KC5TT P.S I don't eat Broccoli after Dark on Tuesday for less than $35 dollars but that's just me... :) On Fri, Jan 12, 2024 at 8:59 AM N5LNK - Sean Linkenheimer via BVARC < bvarc@bvarc.org> wrote: > Good morning everyone. > > It is not my intent to belabor this topic.
