sounds like an ideal situation......as far as guilds check "requirements" before joining and realize that they can multiply at the next board meeting ! senior citizen discount can be dropped, work hours at annual show can increase with no exception for disability, number of oppertunity quilt tickets to be sold can increase, many things requiring time and money can change rather suddenly at the "whim" of the board.
