Folks really have no idea of how much Phil does to pull this event off each year. I've known Phil for several years now, and I can honestly say that he puts his heart and a bunch of effort into this event. I really don't know how he keeps his job, or even stays married, because of this event.

Geez, folks, give him a break.

Phil, my suggestion would be to focus on all of the people that truly enjoy the event. Surely they outnumber the folks that don't really understand the event. I get excited every year, thinking that I am going to make this one.....and then don't. Now, it will be even more difficult to make the trip since I am living in SD. Wish I could be there to help a rotary brotha out.
