Add in the $500,000 in legal defense fees we have already paid out  
and the threshold becomes $1,800,000 dollars, then add in the  
ADDITIONAL amount that our insurance costs WILL GO UP because we have  
settled a case of this nature for $1.3 million dollars (just like  
your car insurance goes up because of a wreck) then over the long  
haul most of our insurance costs will be because of this one  
incidence and not because of all the other activities listed, of  
course we would need transparency from the BOD and an insurance quote  
for an all adult SCA and an insurance quote for a SCA that includes  
underage participants to know either way for sure.
