I read all the post and what stands out is that this hobby is a social event. I gave up on clubs twenty years ago because of one incident. I belonged to a club that flew from a grass strip and naturally this required maintenance. With a club rooster of about twenty you would think this would be no problem but it was. Only a few individuals from the club offered to maintain the field and I was one of them. One day I was mowing the runway on a week day and was told to stop so another club member could fly. This particular person never offered to assist in the up keep of the field but felt entitled to all its' amities. I packed up my lawn mower and never returned. This event is all to common and is a major reason clubs eventually collapse.
