[NSRCA-discussion] Contest in the Louisville/Fort Knox area?

Mon Jan 18 09:04:37 AKST 2010

 Actually I was about 20 years old when that was all decided and guys like Rhett Miller Sr, Chidgey, Penrod, George Hill, Dave Brown, Don Lowe, Ed Keck, Jimmy Grier, Jim Whitley, Kirkland and guys like that made the early decisions. 
 I have fond memories of the early days of our organization. It was formed because of frustration with the AMA. It was full of purpose and determination to get things right.
 I guess the borders are OK just big. Mike
