I don’t disagree it can be done, but even then there’s a process. I can’t even go on a field trip with my daughter at school without the background check, but as we have seen, that’s not foolproof Lol remember 20 years ago when the old church started background checks on volunteers with kids. Had little old ladies ask why they had to do it now after so many decades. Best answer was that things changed and the bad people screwed it up for everyone. I didn’t work with kids but did the checks as a show that council was doing their part too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well for some it took 1 or 2 posts and the subject turned to how they ruined the activity, how they started the G7 , how their proposals for activity were for the worst. How what they wanted as the direction was terrible, how they changed the beloved activity for some, all of which had nothing to do with the topic. This has been driving me crazy for months. Thank you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Month by month. And include the cost. And if you can't do that on this Internet forum, you have no credibility. Is that the game you're playing?

That's. Some don't know the difference ( and readily show it ), of course, many do. You would think it would as you say BUT there are plenty of examples if one wants to go back and look. I don't think there is a need Edited August 26, 2018 by GUARDLING Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he was expressing the frustration many of us feel. It’s not like we’re giving up on it. I’m going to DCA in Williamsport this week and we bought our tickets for Indy in Indy on prelims day.

Terri the question below was posed "Who is spewing hatred for the activity?"...the example given for spewing hatred was..."I hate drum corps now." I may not always agree with @2000Cadet BUT he is the LAST PERSON I'd say was spewing HATRED....this was a very poor example to illustrate the point...hence WHY I said they were two different things...Having frustration with the activity is understandable though... 3 hours ago, HockeyDad said: Who is spewing hatred for the activity?

They considered us volunteers and that was their policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
