Yes, I still remember contributing money towards that a few years back. There was talk at the time of holding an Internat's race there because of it's central location.
Still the big question right now is, will there be a 2005 Internats?

For the record, it wasn't "the board" who did this in '99, it was Dick Tyndall. Dick & Priscilla worked their a$$es off to round up help to pull this off. Yes some of "the board" did help us out but it was after a whole lot of phone calls & requests. There were very few pure "volunteers", they can probably be counted on both hands with a few fingers left over. There were more general members who stepped up to the task when asked like Ron Byrd & some of his gang, Dara Oney (man she worked hard) & other names I can't remember at the moment (sorry). I've always believed in giving credit when due but most of "the board" sat on their hands until pressured into helping out....... <_<bzubee said:.... In the past the board has put on an Internats at a volunteered site but we havn't even got a club/site wanting to do that. At least not that I have heard from. Last time this was done was at the 1999 Internats here in Huntsville.

Well for openers until all the surrounding school construction is done we couldn't even consider it. :blink:bzubee said:Well so far everyone has volunteered other club's sites and no one has stepped up to volunteer thier own club. How about Old Dominion? Come on Don and Preston what about it?

This topic has been brought up & tabled for now. They are not ready for a 10 day onslaught of boaters in that park just yet. The Baltimore club tried unsuccessfully for many years to get into that park & the LAST thing we want is to jepardize what Larry & the D.C club have acomplished. It will be a viable option, just not right yet..........
