Old Salt,

I didn't appreciate being called out for declining the "Planning Role" for COPIA on this forum. When you called me a couple of days ago,  you mentioned passing the baton to me and me taking on the "Leadership Role" for next year's Copia and future Copia's.

I always thought the Copia Gathering on Friday and Saturday nights was put together "BY COMMITTEE. " ... not by one person.  I told you that I would HELP "PLAN"  the event but not take the LEAD ROLE.

I agree with Jimbo  ... I really don't think it is that big a deal putting together our Copia gathering.  It doesn't take much time to secure rooms at the hotel, secure the back room for our gathering, figure out 2 supper meals, and setting up the room with banners , pictures etc.  Several of us bring beers and water for those QJ members attending ...so refreshments every year are easily handled.

I suggest that WE ask a few of the regulars who go to Copia each year ... who would like to help with planning for 2021 COPIA ?  ie  securing the hotel room block, the back room and 2 supper meals.
