Why is DBOA leaving TASO while dues are so expensive?

According to our District Rep (Ft. Worth), it is a mute point. All the Associations that voted to leave TASO will still be part of TASO next year. The Exec Director of the UIL backed out of everything they promised to do to help the new organization get started. So unless DBOA is going to be an independent group with no state affiliation...nothing has changed.

BTW, your chapter dues are high...we only pay $100 (half to the state, half to the local chapter)...of course we have a very large camp that raises a bunch of money.
