Alan has been a member of the Club sinceAug 8, 2011, Althrough he doesn't post on our message board, he does read a lot of it. Alan has supported the Club in other ways. He has wrote one story about the Club that brought us some Canadian members to the Club. He is now in the process of writing another story about the shortage of meat cutters in both the US and Canada. Hopefully it may help open up the eyes of some of the chain stores to put in place apprenticeship programs again.
