Seawolf, I'm not looking to go full circle on this again but like I said last time, the amount of ways we function as a "club" and in many ways go beyond traditional clubs, plus the way we support traditional clubs is all the more reason we should be included in these tournaments.

Unlike some of these other clubs, we don't get our panties all in a bunch when someone that is a member of another club choses to fish for another club. If you use a legal definition of clubs, such as state or federally recognized organizations forumlated with regs and guidelines (like Robert's Rules) then half the clubs fishing these tournaments would need to be disqualified.

I am just a little disturbed that some clubs and some people feel the need to define a narrow set of rules to define "clubs" and are likely missing the point here. The point is to foster some generally good natured competition between organizations AND support a good cause at the same time.
