ghostbear,
Perhaps the club has had problems in the past that have prompted them to have this policy. As a member of a club new or old, your opinion does matter and if you feel that something should be improved by all means you should step up and let it be known. The last club I flew with had about 45 members but if you went to the meetings maybe only 8 people would show up. Therefore we had 8 people setting all the rules and guidelines for the club.
