Re: Question for the Group

[Guest guest]

The ADA has been around for a long time and with any organization there will

alwaays be people in the community that are unhappy with its results for

whatever reason. If the ADA is so bad then would not have the numbers of

people participating in their national fund raising activits. So you need to

do what you think is the right thing to do and not be influenced by what

others think.
