We've had it happen not once, but twice! In addition to the scenario I outline in that episode, there was also a guy who came out to our weekly jellies. He thought the community bit wasn't important. Filled with impatience disguised as enthusiasm, he set out on his own. He opened five months

Angel, Thanks, and good suggestion! We're actually looking to open up fundraising in the next few days, and one of the things we're hoping to do is offer discounted memberships for those who sign up in advance (as many of you have done). Additionally, I got some "fun" news this morning.
