John Casey;
Is the AMA wasting $$$ on liability insurance for chartered club officers?
In a quest to better protect the CHARTER CLUB officers and therefore motivate more individuals to accept such positions in a "sue-everyone - for - everything & anything - society I think NOT.

Remember that not ALL clubs are Non-Profit Corporations. OTOH if AMA is going to take all Charter Clubs under the Mother's Apron as part of the NFP then all the officers become volunteers for the NFP and therefore enjoy the tax beneies of such, then maybe some real goodies are in the works. Lots of potential just over the horizon.
Ever thought of joining with another club and becoming an AMA Chapter? A Chapter is a part of the whole. I still believe the officers could then take volunteer tax status deductions. Dave B says he doesn't think so. My club doesn't have the cajones (sp.) to try it with someone.
