Re: Chicago Killifish Association 2002 Annual Show is canceled



Possibly it is time for a slight rule change  --  some hobby clubs  (not
killies) take the stand that once an event has been repeated annually for
three ( or some number ) of consecutive years then it becomes a permanent
event on the first weekend or second weekend of that same month each
year.  Clubs should pick a day which would least likely interfere with a
holiday for their "permanent event" --  Is something like that worth
considering or too administratively cumbersome???
