[K3PZN-List] EDITORIAL: THE GREAT GAMBER DEBATE

Thu, 16 May 2002 23:02:55 -0400

  Tony,
  A letter is send each year. And personal thank you to Mr.
Linton from me for the club. The club even offer to help them
paint and do repair at the grounds. No calls from them for when.
  Their Board had passed a ruling that all pay for uses of the
grounds. Mr. Linton has worked with us (the club)in the past.
He's hand are tied by the board.He told me they was steadfest.
About were ruling. Now  I beleive him.
Watch one door close and another will open.
