The HAA stopped from lack of funds because the last president "arranged" a quorum and changed the constitution to pay herself. All previous presidents worked for nothing for the HAA. $80,000 a year for three years and the $240,000 that was in the bank was gone and so was the HAA. legitimate robbery, or was it??.
Membership fell because no renewals were sent or acknowledged for months after the meeting that started the end. The President herself said the money she was being paid would be recouped from new memberships ending up numbering none.
It seemed to some who took notice at the time that everything was designed to empty the bank account, that happened.
If this is not the case then in the words of some actor, "show me the money", please.
Heli, this is not criticism these are the facts as we know them.
Please don't get any more "icons" in the mix, there are plenty of worms in the can.
