But lessons were learned. When we did CzechTrek I kept a really tight grip on the donated money and was very up-front and honest about it.
I will say, huge credit to CP. A community that had gotten burned hard by a scammer were not reluctant to later on open up their hearts and wallets to the adventures of Petr.
That was a hell of a commitment and I commend it to this day. My Jagr jersey still sits proudly in my office.
If you were part of CzechTrek you have every right to be very happy and proud of yourselves. As usual, huge shout out to Steely who both saved and screwed all of my plans.
You helped make it happen man!
