The point is noted and its a very good topic to visit and discuss. The rules are in place but that does not mean they will never be adjusted. I beleive to have a sucessful organization we must evolve and revisiting the guidelines is just one way to do that.
Jerome, as you well know we have no control over the race day fee's and the amount was approved the the majority which you were a part of. I'm sorry to hear that you have found a "better place" but we are trying to hold it together in some very tough times. Maybe the program is a little lax but (we) are more motivated by having fun and need to address problems as they arise. Unfortunatly if we don't know what the problems is we surely can't fix it. Again this is your organization and anything is possible
