I’ve attended this event for a little while now & was really looking forward to the general spirit of this event & seeing everyone back at Shelby Campbell’s. And for all the naysayers commenting here, I think some of you don’t realize how much time, effort, & other resources these events require. It’s easy to judge & criticize from the sidelines if you are not actually part of the planning, preparation, & execution of these voluntary events.
I don't think anyone has suggested that these events do not require time, effort, or resources. That appears to be a strawman.
