The books are in the hands of the two clubs judging chairman. It is my understanding that the books are "done" except for the the final approval from the two chairs. If one does not like what is presented the other must agree as well. I hope I'm wrong but this back and forth can take a while. Is it a desire to get it done right of a desire to have the last word? I don't know.

Wait until the Christmas package mailing rush is over.
That way there's less chance of them being lost in the mail.

I talked to the MAFCA office Wednesday and the lady told me they are still at the printer and are expected " any time now." She also said the printer has been saying this for weeks. Her guestimate was within a month. It will make good reading during a snow storm I guess.

I received mine last week.

I checked Mafca web site yesterday and the message there was posted on Nov 29 that they were still at the printers awaiting the start of the production run. Not too likely any large quantity are at either club headquarters. The delay seems to be from printers....

Mitch//pa · 12-09-2016, 07:32 AM

Mike V are u sure your info is correct?

RJV · 12-09-2016, 12:16 PM

It wouldn't be at the printer if both clubs/committees/chairmen hadn't approved.

Are they at the printer? Makes no sense tome that a job should wait so long (Months) before being completed. That's money sitting on a computer file. Is business so good that they can wait months before pushing a button?

As I said above and in a couple of other places, I hope I'm wrong, I want to be wrong, I want it to be at the printers. I would love it if an officer of one of the clubs could give a definitive answer.

I talked to a "high up" person today that said the revisions "are" at the printer and the current plan is to be printed in a week. While I understand it's been awhile and like a kid waiting for Christmas, people become impatient. Stuff happens and those doing the work are volunteers so post #16 is the most sensible.

That is great news, no really. That means the politics involved with two clubs joining to produce one common item is over. We just have to sit and wait.

This topic draws responses similar to those by the many people who can't seem to resist repeatedly posting and complaining when they think their bi-monthly magazines might be running late to their mailbox.

It will be available when it is available, and it will be great!

You have a tremendous grasp of the obvious. The executive must live up to a high degree or level of integrity and deliver when promised. They also can not go into hiding when a contentious issue is raised which they seem to have perfected. The Chairnan should step forward with a factual statement. Wayne

I worked my way thru college at a print shop. It was always the printer's fault if something was delayed.

Jim Mason · 12-09-2016, 08:35 PM

I got mine

Bawahaha. ..no not yet

Flathead · 12-09-2016, 11:04 PM

I don't have mine yet either. When I ordered and paid for them at Hershey they were going to be going right out. They've been teasing us for a while now but I guess we have no choice but to wait.
