I wasn't being critical, just answering the question. Below is a message our club received from MARC.

As of today July 29th, the May June Issue of the Model A News is at the printer. It will be mailing within the next couple of days.
We thank you for your patience in this matter and are working to get everything back on schedule. This occurred due to our Editor Helen Ehrenhofer having some back problems.
Thank you for your understanding.

Sounds like they need to have a backup plan in place and not depend on just one person so that the whole operation doesn't go down.

Franchise ...... Next time they ask for help [backup] hope you put your name in the hat...This is a hobby not a business and should be treated as such. This Publication of the MARC took off in a super way.. when Helen / Ken took over . If you can't wait join MAFCA , A.A.C.A. and get Hemmings ..That should keep you busy until MARC mag. comes...

So you don't belong to MARC... But make a comment on how it should run... with a back up plan and not just 1 person... That 1 person fills a lot of shoes. thank you. and 1 i wish i could fill.

I'm done, obviously you have a problem with people having an opinion! All I see is people saying their May magazine coming out in August. Hopefully its not a monthly book, or yes it's very behind.

I started this thread since I was a new member of MARC and had only received one issue of the magazine. Granted this is a hobby and I truly love it! That being said I agree as a member that there should be a backup plan when situations like this occur. No it didn't kill me having to wait but MARC does have a responsibility to its dues paying members. Advertisers pay for their adds to be run on schedule and members that are trying sell items are trying to do so in a timely manner. This is not an attack on Helen and I appreciate all of her hard work. There just needs to be a plan B

BOTH OF YOU:
There is a plan B..its called KEN her husband and he has basically dropped everything to get this done, so with your dues in hand you can be sure you magazine will be out as soon as possible, He is and the board are quite aware of the situation on this and sometimes things like illness is beyond our control, with a publication as great as this you can afford to wait a bit I hope, if not well....sorry but in my opinion its worth the wait...and the advertisers are quite aware of what is going on right now.
