Met and spoke with most members of our informal core group of supporters last night. The general consensus is that anyone who was tied, even marginally, to the old club program is being ushered out the door, not be the investor/owner, but by the new GM who has dreams of starting a new club program. He obviously didn't believe he could recruit any of us (which is stupid) and wants all new bodies in there to recruit club kids for. Stupid stupid stupid.

Our program officially announced the new rec program which will start in the fall. Our club/competitive program is already in full swing. Non compete agreements prevent the former president from being a part of any new building/complex, but it has no impact on anyone else. Inquiries have come to us about interest as there are two investors who are interested in building a new complex if we will bring it all together. We've decided to investigate that but I won't do too much unless I've got some skin in the game. I will not help build another successful organization and see it yanked away by an investor who stayed at arm's length.

We shall see.
