This will likely be discussed at French Lick later this month with announcements planned in the Model A News as well. MARC membership is crucial to making the system work at its best efficiency. Stay tuned.

Secretary, MARC
Joe, As you are the MARC Secretary, perhaps you might be able to answer me this: what if our region wants to continue our affiliation with MARC, but will not risk loosing 70% of our membership to enforce MARC's requirment that all our local members be MARC members too? If we submit our region's renewal form, and do not sign the statement that affirms that all our local members are MARC members, will MARC accept our region's renewal? If MARC accepts our renewal, will MARC ever give us a Certificate of Liability Insurance for any event our club holds?
