Quote:Julie & Lawrence Brooks sure seem certain, and are leaving from Dulles on Tuesday, which is a long drive for them if there is a problem. The others in Legio XX are not at all certain: they need confirmation ASAP as I submitted their names back May 15. What happened to the Yahoo group??
Quote: NO! Several members of Legio XX have submitted their names, but are wondering if the whole event is not going to happen because they have received so little information! What's the story? I will tell them about the Yahoo group, but the event organizers REALLY need to contact all the (hopeful) participants right away with the essentials. We have NO travel information, etc.
Avete,
Although we were repeatedly assured by Mr. Cologni that travel plans were being made, by the middle of last week no confirmation had been forthcoming when all communications from him, either direct of via the Novae site, abruptly ceased. Repeated attempts by phone and email to contact Mr. Cologni have yielded no results.
As of Saturday morning, Legion VI formally backed out, and our Senate/director board decided to make it official. In a rash decision, the member who had created the Novae site on his own volition shut it down without consulting us (he had privately created the group to support the event and had control in this).
On behalf of Legion VI I appologize for any inconvience this is creating for anyone planning to continue to try to participate in Novae. However, the responsibility for the apparent collapse of American participation in this event rests with its organizers, who quite clearly promised far more than they could deliver.
