@ Maz- What could we have done to make it your cup of tea? Do you belong to a knitting club as well?
@ Buzz- Thanks for participating in the Rod Building Contest. Pappy also donated a rod for the raffle that he wove the Project Healing Waters Logo onto the blank. Once again it was beautiful work. As for the CC: I would have thought that they could have had the PA System cover the entire building so that it could have been heard in all the rooms. It might have helped if I had been making announcements, but I thought that I heard Herman OK while he was doing them (and I in the room of course). I did not even hear about the presentation of the award for the rod-building contest. Also I thought that the General Raffle could have been better off in Crete Hall where the fly tying theater was. This was our first crack at this and I came away with a few suggestions for next year, if we have it in the same location. One of which is to involve more clubs in the process of planning it. Split up the major functions between the clubs and have one club in charge of one thing, like speakers, registration, auction/raffle etc. Thanks for the feedback though.
@Bamboofisher As Marty said the clubs wanted a break. After helping Herman coordinate this event I can definitely see why. The other issue is the attendance seems to stagnate if you have it in the same location for a long period of time. The same gas argument could have been used for everyone down south about driving to Redding for Conclave. Lodi is about the geographic center of the council (North to South in California). It is almost equidistant from Redding as it is from Fresno.
Anyone else?
