A Response to Comments about Notification

CavDog's opinion of application reading season

While building the new class is exciting, we are itching to be done with this process.  We know that on the other side of this is the fun part...meeting you all at Days on the Lawn!  Having an early Days on the Lawn was kind of a tease.  We got a taste of the fun stuff, but there's still a little work to be done. 

I have repeatedly assured you that as soon as I get the green light to post about a change in the notification date, I will fly to the keyboard to get an update to you.  There is no need to ask for an update.
