As a club, I think a vote is in order, but before we can have a vote, someone would need to proposes an alternative to vote on.

I also think that it is a little short notice to make a change. There are at least some people who do not check the board daily, or that we talked to given spotted cards that might not know of the change.

That said, I strongly believe we should go back to Bully's on principle.

Let me start by saying, though I have not known Ryan long, I do not believe he has done anything wrong..

It is likely that as our club grows thought that somebody might join us who has. As a club we have done nothing wrong. We should not change our plans due to a single incident outside of our control.

A club is responsible to it's members, not responsible for them, or their individual actions.

If as a group, we do something bad, then yes, it is a blemish on the club, but if a club member ever does something to get in trouble outside of a club activity, then that is on them, not the club.

Given that we are promoting things such as Autocross to get people off the streets, we will likely have members with some history, if we don't already. That is a good thing, not a bad thing if our objective is for us to have a positive impact. With that, comes the reality that we may be witness to some unpleasantness.

Bully's has shown a willingness to support us, I think we should continue to support them.

OK, I'll get down off my soap box now.
