    Hello @Giovanna_BCNA
    " I 
    understand that there has been consultation with our members regarding the proposed changes and I will keep you all updated regarding any new developments" - WHO WAS CONSULTED ?
    It makes me wonder who you have consulted as the ladies who have responded are not impressed.
    Whilst we all say that BCNA is the very best organization, this name change is distressing to many, especially to the lesser-known male members.

    Have to agree with you, @Summerhill38, which was the main reason I started this discussion.

    Have to wonder about the consultation. There must be some focus group or similar. I would've taken part if I could.

    Curious to know what's wrong with the current name. 

    It has stirred emotions. 

    Discussion about Pink Lady apples, chocolate et cetera 

    Can't get past pink lady apples!!

    Dear oh dear!

    .... and I was thinking that perhaps I was missing the day BCNA put the word out about the name change and asked for comment ... ?????

    Interesting to know as to why the need for a name change.  Yes to quote @Zoffiel it does sound like a brain fart!
    Good idea @onemargie
    Hopefully feedback will come and yes you have to wonder why they didn't consider a post on this forum for suggestions. Maybe this is like glad wrap they didn't consult with those that count and then had to revert back
