10-4, both are assumptions...............but mine is better.....(kidding)

As to trusting the board on this one; .......ahhhh, unfortunately our track record hasn't been that great as of late. Regardless, as a member in good standing, I am entitled to ask and to be provided with the information and there is nothing wrong with keeping an eye on what is going on........and further, there is nothing wrong with providing said information to all members. If it was to be posted in it's entirety on the MAAC website for all to see and question, there would be no need to worry about spin or missinformation because the information/facts would be coming directly from the source.

The following is the request that I sent. I'll keep you posted on what/if any response I receive.

Executive/Board:

I formally request the following information related the upcoming 2005 NATS;

The most recent budget submission by the committee in electronic format.
The total amount of funds (seed money) that have been provided to the committee thus far
The most recent total registrants for the event and the deadline date for entrants.

Thank you.
