While I can understand the frustration.........why does it have to be a club? Why does it have to demand that much time from that many people? We have had many GTGs here in FL that are attended by all who can make it, and the turnout has been great. Granted, it is a lot of work for the one or two who plan it but it does not require any more than that. We haven't needed logos, t-shirts, hats, emblems, etc. etc. to have a great time. Some have made all, some have made a few, and some have made none at all. But all of us that go have had a wonderful time, met some great people, and enjoyed it tremendously.

I think everyone is trying to make too much out of GTGs. We have a couple of great forums and CICCI that provides a most excellent means of planning and communication. It has already brought us all together for whatever reasons. Use it for what it is.....you do not need to re-invent the wheel. This club thing is being taken way to seriously. At least those are my thoughts, for what they're worth (probably not .02).
