So sorry your Friday night was rough. Can we keep that out of this post? Lots of boys and girls were having a good time at the annual dinner on Sat so I can't say its a common issue.
Well, Chris, based on previous threads I've seen about the AAC I do think this is a common issue. I poo-poo'd it earlier but now understand better the concerns. To ignore them is anathema to the organization.
Glad to hear folks were having a good time at the dinner. Alcohol and age (boys and girls) are defining factors in that. I can pretend to have a good time just about anywhere with a couple of brews in my gullet. And so can the Old Men.
I still can't justify choosing the AAC program over another offering similar content and I'm certain I'm not alone. Until the club becomes competitive in all markets, programs, gender, opportunity, you're climbing up the wrong wall. And I certainly think the conversation I had with Arlene Blum today would support that.
