[D-plan-net] FW: Bow Sprit

[glenn111 at bellsouth.net]

Hi all,

These are comments from D15 Planning Chairperson (P/DC Bill Dietrich). Just 
an FYI.

Glenn Roy
D15 Cdr.
Louisiana to the Pan Handle of Florida



Well done presentation BUT,  How many of our people know what the
"Bowsprit Program" is?????

At this time how many care?????

The ideas are good but we must make it a GOAL to strive for, and until
they(we) know what  it really is, where are we going???

I've seen more on Bowsprit in the last couple months than in the
previous 5 years!  The "Why Refocus" is a reason!

I'm in agreement that it would be better from the Squadron UP, in that
it can then be participated and appreciated by a much greater number of
members!

Your turn???

Bill Dietrich
