These are relationships we need to cultivate. Nick was not happy after the last NLM--we did not have enough help at the end of Sunday to put the room back in order. We have taken steps to rectify this in November, but going forward, we need to keep this in mind, including at our upcoming holiday party.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small">A</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small"><br></div><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div>Ann Romeo<br>Personal email: <a href="mailto:annromeo@gmail.com" target="_blank">annromeo@gmail.com</a></div>

<div>Hello All: Following is an exchange of email I had with Nick
regarding use of SBC for I/N. Ann asked that I share this with you.</div>

<div>When I sent the most recent message to Nick, I thought our commitment was
more specific than the minutes show. In any event, we need to ensure
we don’t wear out our welcome with Nick and SBC.</div>

<div>Thanks for the prompt reply, and for making your facility available for
Seattle Bridge Unit.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The Board understands and is sympathetic with your concerns. In fact,
at the Board meeting last night these issues were discussed and two people
committed as additional help for the clean up next month.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I am sure the Board will be quite willing to review and discuss all this
with you at your convenience.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I will apply tomorrow for sanction for next May.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thank you again,</div>

<div>The scheduling works fine for me. We might have a discussion on the
fee structure after this next tournament.</div>
<div>My understanding a year ago was that Board Members would help with setup
and teardown.</div>
<div>I worked 35 hours from Friday afternoon until Sunday evening last
time. If that's going to be the new normal,</div>
<div>I can't justify closing my club and losing between $600 and $700
income. It's certain;y great to have newer players</div>
<div>experience the club and possibly come back for the regular games.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I'll be contacting the board after the NLM next month with any possible
updates.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks,</div>
