Just asking...not inferring anything Deal with all the legal issues perhaps. Our church had an adult who worked with teenagers and was over huggy with the females. He got told to stop and threatened to sue council for defamation of character. Still waiting for my summons 20 years later. (How was the meeting? Great, I'm getting my ### sued) Edited April 16, 2018 by JimF-LowBari 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldBones Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 1 hour ago, George Dixon said: wow - that's so not what happened with Legends. and I'm pretty sure Raiders went through the evaluation for different reasons than a "new board" - but hey, whatever. I love the "they should have paid the price" -- who exactly should have "paid the price" - the 2017 Legends members? Anyway - back to YEA! - I believe the external reviews by DCI are highly warranted and it's likely helpful to get a third-party perspective as well during all this. Also DCI's "blessing" (should one be forthcoming) will add further confidence to the organization by the public, fans, donors and most importantly - members, staff & volunteers. This is a GOOD thing. Yes, Raiders also had financial issues in the past. All taken care of and heading in a totally new direction now. Unfortunately, the members are ALWAYS the ones who pay for poor decisions made by Admins and Boards. You dont have to look too far back in DCI history to see corps folding on tour. Unfortunately the DC Community did not reach out and help them. I seem to remember a lot of ridicule towards them. I feel sorry for the members in Cadets, and only the members. Hopefully YEA passes the eval, that WOULD be a good thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There seem to be 2 separate issues YEA has to deal with. First is GH and any/all legal issues. The Chicago law firm would deal with that. Second is YEA's financing. I would think that would include an audit by an accounting firm. Edited April 16, 2018 by rpbobcat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
