I have been told those are the members that others refer to as the "red coats."

i'd call or email to ask if you can stop buy the officers home and pick up the goods......and share a cup o' tea....
Take tea and talk---TNT (?) Sounds volitile to me.

if the policy was started after you paid the $$$ and wasn't stated in the membership application or materials....seems you have cause to request a refund.
It was just implimented, last week the treasurer could not remember if she had indeed mailed it to me or not and asked me.

I did think about that. It doesn't seem right. If membership dues are solicited by phone and paid by mail, why would you now all of a sudden have to be in attendance to get what you paid for? Albeit it's not much, but for $55.00 I get my directory and BB, and from the unit for $15.00 I get my newsletter .pdf and I should get a local members directory and badge. That is support in my book, and not to be sneared at. There is also principle involved.

On a more positive note, I received my Tin Can Tourists membership package and was surprised by even getting a lapel pin along with our cards and decal. Looking forward to my first TCT rally this spring.
