Very good question! I don't really have a problem with a city official (representative) being there, but 3? Come on, it's tax dollars being spent on this mini-vacation. Will wnd pick up the bill on this trip? Maybe the casino will?

I know, I know it's only a few dollars, but they're our tax dollars being spent. Well, maybe Rick, Kent and Ken will all chip in and pay for the trip themselves?
