First it was obvious that the gentlemen had to be rounded up to attend. I don’t recall the count but it was it was less than a dozen in a small conference room.

They were courteous, listened to us and accepted MOAA applications that were annotated with the Chapter identification. Anyway none joined on the spot presumably because they were from other parts of the state and would be returning home shortly.

Of course we’ll never know whether any of them later joined MOAA but I know we both left the occassion glad that we’d (eighty year olds) made the effort.
