I dare ya! It's the den mother holding the iPhone with the Square reader so you can't say that you don't have any cash that you have to watch out for. From what I've heard, they probably pay more in processing fees than they actually make from the cookies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Komnick and his inept rubber stamp of a board are literally doing everything in their power to destroy this once great organization, that isn't even a shell of its former self. I've said it before and I'll say it again...if CK or the board truly cared about this organization they would learn from others on how to run an organization, how to be leaders, and to own up to their failings. As an educator, who is an alum, I can no longer, in good conscience encourage students to audition for this organization. Btw...what happened to the SoundSport and WGI Winds groups? Oh...those fell apart too? i agree. it's a way to push out dissenters, and maybe even younger alums who aren't happy. Personally, I'd take it as a rallying cry, get as many older alumni to pony up, just so they can vote as a bloc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In many ways, it has helped keep the sale alive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(as with the other hand he continues his zillionth post here.) Pass the Thin Mints please* sayeth this Uncle of several neices and whose diabetic doctor forbids him from eating even one such cookie.

It’s another ####### ploy to by the inept Chris Komnick and the worst board in the activity. Nothing will change until the corps folds, as those in charge are unwilling to change, and they’ve made it virtually impossible to oust them. It’s beyond sad and horrifying.

I suppose the answer is the oldsters are the ones who are fed up and want change. None of this sounds good for the future of the Madison Scouts/Scoutettes. I cant contribute to this regime. No one is accusing them of being the brightest bulb on the string. My guess is they feel threatened. Self first. Corps second. A real formula for success. BTW that’s sarcasm.
