[Ohio-talk] Good Role Models

[Carol Akers]

Unfortunately this ballroom was not as big as they normally are.......so as they announced early in the sessions.....there were not enough seats set up in the delegations for everyone who had registered.  We may have had 132 in numbers, but I don't think we actually counted the chairs!!!  It was never filled to capacity.  The first session or so it was nearly full, but even then there were people not present.  The "teacher" does not take attendance , so the names of those present and absent will not be made public.  I just wish everyone came for the reason of learning, being rejuvenated in spirit and representing Ohio.  Granted it is nice to get away, but this is a working vacation for most of us.  Some of us did the march, came back and attended the session for the rest of the day.  Tired but envigorated from the fellowship and exercise!!

So who was staying away from sessions?  I ask because you say, "so many
people."  But someone else said it was usually packed. We had 132 people
registered from Ohio.  How much of a block of seating did we have in
sessions?  Anyone know for sure?  Did we have less than 130, I suppose, so
even if it was fairly full, there was still always some of us who weren't
there?


Thanks,
Everett
