I think pretty much in this thread has been covered. What club does not have some rules? Ours is to socialize, show our cars, have fun and make friends and is the reason for the club. Kind of hard to do that if some members do not attend GTGs five or more times in a row, or even respond to our posts about GTGs. Shows a lack of interest in the club and fellow members. There are members from Dallas and Brenham who make the journey to come to the GTGs. Yes it is expected that sometimes we can't make it to all the GTGs. I even missed the one to your house Fred, my Mom was visiting from Ohio and I was going to come anyway but the reason I didn't, I got so sick, I thought I was dying and didn't show up. I had rather come to the GTG. I posted that I couldn't make it. It all comes to caring about the club and fellow members as many members do, if not, then what is the purpose.
