The association was growing by leaps and bounds. The professional staff, the association’s professional staff was growing. But we were mired in Wheeling, West Virginia. That was the historical home of the AZA. And that had to do simply with where the, and I may say it wrong, the National Recreation and Parks Association was headquartered. The AZA was a part of that, and in ’73, I think, declared its independence. Gary Clarke was a major player in that. And they maintained an office in Wheeling, West Virginia, which, you know, I have a lot of friends in West Virginia, but that ain’t the place to be for a national association.
