I touched base
with one of the big wigs at the last PDX ABFM about that <span id="misspell-5"><span>possibility</span></span> and my very basic understanding is it would
require someone to attend the planning meetings during the year and of course volunteers during Labor Day weekend. Now, I also understand that CLNW was involved in the past (before I joined the Club) but stopped because the Club was just to small and did not have enough people to help. Now, I also know
the Club has been gaining Members for several years and although we are still a small Club I feel we have enough <u id="yiv1947615278yui_3_2_0_20_134973797122876">Active</u> Members to be able to do this. The big question is can we get enough Committed Volunteers for this and is it something you think the Club should do? My plan is to discuss and vote on this during the Sun. Oct. 21st 2012 Business Meeting. Two <span id="misspell-7"><span>positive</span></span> things I feel right off the bat that would come from this are:</div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; background-color: transparent;" id="yiv1947615278yui_3_2_0_20_134973797122893" class="yiv1947615278ms__id10456"> </div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; background-color: transparent;"
