ARCH - What If

[Pug Bainter]

Patrick J. Cuccurello (pat at adtelusa.com) said something that sounded like:

Ok, despite being in the west kingdom, I am confused. Several people
have brought this up, so I am not picking on Pet for this.

Why does Archery deserve a GoA level award? Why doesn't Equestrian? Why
do we feel like we are being shunned when there are plenty of other
areas that are fringe like us as well? Until we are more visible, we
can't expect to be more visible even with a GoA level award. It is us
that makes the difference not a piece of regelia or a title.

Ciao,
