OT for Chuck Bower

Explanation of some other post, just ignore this post if you're not Chuck.


The truth is, we do have the ability to make the room private and only allow registered USBGF Youth members and their coaches and approved volunteers (who have already given much of their personal time and effort getting these kids involved and helping them learn the game) into the room.

Instead of fighting us, it would be lovely if the backgammon community would support this effort and help encourage the growth of the game and help support the volunteers and the organization that is working very hard to grow the game.

Why distract us from our volunteer efforts by having to defend ourselves and answer accusatory letters and posts over this? Keep in mind, we are all volunteers--none of us are being paid or expect to be paid for our efforts to enlist college (and high school) students, teach them the game, organize events, set up a room for them, find sponsors, get them boards, find additional volunteers to coach each team and help with the program.


As you can see: word "volunteer" is twice not just mentioned, but even explain that volunteers give their personal time and money.
