Absolutely, but I was not just referring to their time
invested as in the host club's, I was also referring
to our time invested  meaning the AGA's time invested.


I am probably over analyzing it but in a perfect world
we would have more than 1 club trying to host an AGA.
A true bid situation. Can you imagine muliplying all
of the emails we have had with GWAPA and then SFBAAPS
times 2 or possibly 3 clubs? 

I guess I am switching topics here because I totally
agree with you about the Nov 1 deadline for a prelim
hotel contract. I was just going off on a little
tangent just trying to think of a way to streamline
this part of the "preliminary" process.

If we are going to make a change to the convention
document maybe we could put in some more details about
how the hotel bid will be graded, ie room cost,
banquet cost, proximity to airport, facilities, etc.

This is probably not the time to re-engineer all of
this but I wanted to see what everyone else thinks.
