From what I just read in an Irish Central article, it sounds like CLRG could be gone in a matter of weeks if the teachers and adjudicators don't agree to bail them out financially (and parents too, though they get no vote). I say good riddance to CLRG. -- New England Irish Dancers

It seems a lot of people are ok with cheating as long as it benefits them, so the organization may have some staying power if they can be fiscally responsible moving forward.

My understanding is that the reps vote yes for increased fees then funding will be available to bail them out for now- I don't know many Irish Dance teachers that would vote to have their business destroyed in a matter of weeks.

[> [> [> [> Subject: You're probably right about the voting. But I don't think teachers who vote against this travesty are voting to have their businesses destroyed. We'd still have IDTANA and NEIDT, and they could work out a way to hold Worlds without CLRG. And if they can't do that in time for next Spring, we could skip a year like we did during Covid. We'd all survive and we might be a lot better off without the current CLRG management.
