History
The 50 year history of the Society has been recorded verbatim by the WFNS historian. The record shows that despite steady progress and adjustments, at times heated arguments took place at officials meetings, as to goals, direction, finances, membership, etc., and the discussions at times have been rancorous. Nevertheless, the Society has grown and continues to grow.
