    Corporate Consulting Associates

    Has anybody heard of or had experience with Corporate Consulting Associates out of Cheyenne, WY? Recent visit from rep claims they can cancel my annual fees through the settlement between Bluegreen and Bass Pro Shops. Of course, they want a fee upfront, always a bad sign.

    Is it possible to book Bluegreen Associate Resorts?

    I'm curious if anyone has some insight on Bluegreen Associate Resorts.

As far as I remember I have...
