This was one of the items I would like to see change from a regional clubs perspective. This information should be published somewhere in a checklist or something. Same with the topic of putting on a regional show. I know there is information on a national show. I want this to be easier for new clubs to get involved, rather than having MCA go out and ask regional clubs to get involved. What Phil made is a great start to a tool that MCA should consider implementing into a welcome type package from MCA. I feel That some of my suggestions fall on deaf ears. Committees are only as good as the people on the committee. Perhaps there should be a point of contact or someone who will persue and present suggestions to the committees and provide feedback to whom ever suggested the idea. I understand everyone has a regular job and a life outside of MCA. It is the same at the regional level. Why should we write an article on this subject? That is why we have forums..... This is a simple tool that I feel should be presented and even impleneted to ease the pain of newer clubs. I think simple items like this should be a no-brainer. Dont get me wrong John its nothing against you but, seems like nothing happens quick with MCA not even a simple I will pass it on. Thanks for your help!
