why do groups still continually chose sites
that are way beyond accessible? By the way guys... The ones picking the
sites to use is as liable for suit as the site owners over the
accessibility of the site.
I agree that there is a legal and a moral issue to provide services to
the handicapped participants at our events but the problem as I see it is that
there are becoming fewer and fewer sites that meet not only the
qualifications for camping, fighting, horses, archery and merchandising, but also the
needs of our disabled neighbors. The alternative isn't pretty. I can see
sometime in the future, with the complete lack of adequate sites available and the
sword of lawsuits hanging over the BODs heads, that the Society will no
longer be able to hold camping events. Either that or the cost of the site will
become so prohibitive that it would be cheaper to stay in a local motel.
According to my wife- that isn't such a bad thing.
The one solution would be to have corporate land upon which each kingdom
can provide to it's members, but due to the legalities of our structure- it
ain't going to happen.
