I think that is horrible that they would discriminate like that. Wonder why they feel that way. As you say, their loss!

They're such a great bunch of folks to be around, I just love going to meetings and being around them. They have two retreats each year, and I volunteered to be the co-chair (along with my wife) of next's years retreats. Going to be fun!
I also belong to the Hot Springs Area Quilt Guild, which is in the next county over. They usually have about 40-45 members at each meeting, I believe. My wife and I just joined them back in August. They're a great bunch, too, lots of fun.
But the county guild in the county that I live in won't let me join their guild because I am a man. :( Oh, well, their loss...they don't know what they're missing out on. :D
