No, No,  The point was here is a brand new member that assumed he needed to be a member of CORSA to join a chapter.  He is a typical example of what people [outside of CORSA] expect.  And 'times a wastin' has been going on for many, many years ... and CORSA has been on the decline financially and membership wise for all of that time while required membership organizations have been growing.

The road to a national organization's success has long been established ... Required membership.  Period.  Best to forget all the schemes, exclusions, grandfathering; the BoD needs to just get it done.

Hello,
  I am vairy  new to all of this as some of you guys already know. So I dont know if I 
have the right to open my big mouth yet. But here's my 2 cents anyway. I joined Corsa in 
the past week and most likely will join the area chapter too. I thought it was mandatory 
to join the national club . All the other chapter clubs I have joined in the past 
required joining the national too. I think it is  rather standard these days. As far as 
money goes. I was laid off  for almost 6 months last summer and have not worked a full 40 
since being called back last fall. So I have very little money to spend. But I felt the 
help I could get from a national club out weighed the out lay of cash. And I think most 
new members would too. So I guess I am saying I dont think its all that bad to require 
joining national to join a chapter. Like I said before I think it's standard practice at 
most clubs.
  Thanks
  Eric
