text: I'm just going to start off by saying I understand your concerns . But I feel you're missing a couple pieces information the original ft x was going to cost $120 to take the advanced sere course lead by 2 other instructors course fee was there to pay for there airfare and food etc. Obviously that fell through. Additional plans were made and another instructor was found and he offered to teach for free leadership intern offered to pay for his travel since it was such a long distance away. So for the life of me I can't comprehend why anybody wood post something about not wanting to pay $50. It just might be that some are just so tuned up and have no desire to further their training in areas that they may never have access to again in the future.And the 25-member minimum was met days ago the ftx will be happening. Surely everyone understands that one instructor cannot teach fifty or sixty people efficiently and that is the main reason for seeking outside help.And if our organization had members with these specific skill sets I'm sure we would have utilized our own members but I do not know of any if anyone does ask them why haven't they stepped up.
