When would it be? If it takes a larger membership for an event such as this, how do we create size without having something to grow into, develop and progress.

I do not necessarily see this as a platform for people to "see the Fjord". Although it certainly can be advertised in such a fashion that the non Fjord owning public is very welcome to watch and hopefully it could be held in a full size coliseum that would be conducive to a large audience..I see it as an avenue for US, the current membership to have a common place to perform, compete, learn, administrate, listen, speak, sell, buy, meet and see -on a national level. And I agree with Mike - all Fjords can come. Where would we be if those who started the NFHR didn't think it couldn't be done, or the time wasn't right. - Pat > >
