One "volunteer" I know is 79 years old, shares a room in the dump of a motel, works at least 12 hours every day, pays his way to and from Alabama.  What a rip-off artist!  String him up!

  Hey! I volunteered to be the Assistant Potentate of Porta Potties but when I showed up for the interview the  "Grand Poobah" aka Slim took My money and split for fame and fortune in the World of Radio Media!  And NO, even though I was a bit miffed I was not the culprit who put the rolls on upside down... it must have been one of them Kiwi's or Ausies.  But then again, maybe that's how they do it up in Frostbite Falls, Michigan  or where ever Queen Nancy rules...
                                                  Great to see You Slim (and REALLY great to HUG Nancy)!
p.s.  Let's All chill out a bit... We have got All Winter to light Fires... oh, and don't forget to send a donation to LANDRACING.COM and SAVE THE SALT.

Dang Bob, I didn't think you were there so I didn't try and find you.

Or maybe you saw me first and hid.   :-D

  Some volunteers hate it when I point out their benefits.

  Just clarifying that for people who think they are donating their time for nothing and paying the rip off Bendover hotel rates.

   Hey Linda and I have been paid volunteers in the  past when the hotel rates were $25 a night at the Nevada Crossing.

  But when the Linda got sun poisoning from handing out timing slips we didn't volunteer anymore.

John --

So why are you trying to disparage the volunteers.  In the whole big picture, are they ripping off the association?  Some of them?  Most of them?

Perhaps you could volunteer to be the Volunteer Czar.  You could keep track of the 150 of them before and during the meet and pay (or not) the ones that are earning their keep.

  I'm disparaging the volunteers by pointing out their not freely doing it with no benefits?

  What gives you the idea that I think anyone is ripping off the association. Read my original post, we need and appreciate them.

  Some members here and in the past had no idea of their benefits and were paying out of pocket.

  Guess you would like that.
