A flippin' nightmare. You saw my post a while back about the struggle between the chapters. Well my chapter's leadership didn't inform everybody until last week. That PO'd a lot of people as you might imagine to get blind sided by this news.

Three chapters are fighting over the school districts and it's getting ugly.

You may have heard there was a challenge to leadership within the UIL chapter down here and the incumbent president narrowly missed getting removed from office by only a few votes. It is a shame too because I think that might've been the impetus to some real change but it's more of the status quo now. Sad to say, I'm at the point that I don't care which way the lawsuit goes as long as it gets settled so we can move on.

Oh and TASO doesn't have a record of me paying this year despite the fact I sent my dues to the chapter. Fun times all around.

That all sounds so painful - especially them losing track of your payment. Such a mess. Sorry you have to go through all that and possibly (probably?) lose out on a lot of games.

I am feeling VERY fortunate that I have the option of working for the chapter I am in. I will be thanking my lucky stars a little bit more tonight. Sorry for your pain, though.

I didn't know he had moved out that way. I know its bad out your way too so maybe he'll feel right at home.
