Eh Lou,

We did have a discussion about your proposal the other night while ironing out the plans for the Solo Event at the All Nissan Meet to be held this Sept. The 9th.. I don't think there is any issue with you forming a chapter at all. The fees for joining the club will be no different than anyone else - $40 a year, which will include 11 issues of the club newsletter and a Calendar which makes up the 12th issue. There's no problem with content either, Richard will set a side space for a monthly report from the Island Chapter in each issue, and all your events will be included in the club calendar, which is updated monthly. Really, this would be no different than when I ran the Island Chapter 13 years ago from Victoria.
I would assume that this Chapter would be Nanaimo based? Ladysmith based?? Based unknown??? Who would be the director(s). And of course any content for the newsletters (pics, stories ect.) are always welcome and often needed.
As far as events go, the club does have insurance for holding non-speed events, anything else needs additional coverage. But what are the plans for your proposed Island Chapter? Let us know, and we'll help you out wherever we can.

Thanks for updating Byron, I was out of commission the last 2 days...

The only thing I want to add is that depending on the size of your group, you should be casually electing 1 or 2 coordinators that are to be a point of contact for the executive and the editor to get a hold of, and who can send information regarding reports/pictures of meetings/events, and locations of upcoming meetings and events. Anyone who wants to join up as a member can download the form from the following page:

Although guests are welcome to 510 club events, only members will be mailed a newsletter and will be able to benefit from membership privileges.

Other than that, Byron summed it up pretty well. Let us know what you think, and what your plans are for the Island Chapter!

Paul
