...keep rehashing the same issue? While everyone may not know the exact wording the bottom line is that slabbed items are banned from the convention floor. Archie has indicated that they might also be banned from ads in the club magazine. Does anyone think that there is more to the issue than that? If so, what additional information do you have? I will also repeat something I have stated several times before and this would apply to any club issue. If there is a policy in place and you disagree with said policy you need to do one of two things. Learn to live with the policy or work to change it. That's simply the way it would be for any organization. I'm sure there are several ways a member can work to change a club policy that he or she disagrees with. Such as, present your proposal to the BOD, provide the BOD with research supporting your position, run for office with your position as part of your platform, start a petition drive, etc. I think what gets lost in a lot of these discussions is the fact that the majority of club members support the decisions by the BOD. Some dissenters feel that because a few disagree with a policy then that policy should be instantly changed.
