Judging by what I know about how ZCCA operates, I suspect that the club falling apart was a direct result of the pressure of hosting the convention...ZCCA wants someone else to do the work while ZCCA takes the accolades (problems are always blamed on someone/something else).
I'm convinced that if Middle Tennessee had hosted the convention there would be no Middle Tennessee Z Club today.
But you are right; many in the leadership of ZCCA have been there since the beginning...and "change" is not in their vocabulary.
