You get what you pay for, Kevin.  I, for one, do not expect AMA
to go "all out" for my club.  They offer advice and a very nice
video package to help clubs out...
Have you had any SFA executive officers come out and visit/talk
to your club?  We've had 2 visits in the last 3 years.  One was
from Geoff Styles who came out here and even went with us to see
our local parks dept. along with the state congressional
delegation to talk about our field... the other was Dick Hanson,
our region 10 rep, who came to visit our club after I had written
him asking him to come out.
Can you do this with SFA?
                                       Go Nuts!
