RE: Can the poor opinion of AMA be changed and how??
If you look at the original question that started this, "Can the poor opinion of AMA be changed and how??" I am asking HOW?
Here are some simple suggestions that I have.... Maybe I'm right maybe I'm wrong..........
1. have the district AVP's and VP get more active or assign AMA representation at club functions other than just sanctioned events...
2. seek out and reconize the clubs that are doing the "extras" in their communities.
3. cater less to the, "Good Old Boys and their high dollar toys", and focus more on the middle man.
4. offer different levels of insurance coverage for those who want turbines, over 55lbs, li-polys, etc...
5. let me choose, if I want the magazine or not. Maybe the money I save could be used to buy additional insurance.
You're are all right!!! It makes it easier if I have AMA vs homeowners insurance to make sure I'm covered... however, have you ever tried to make a claim....see what happens then......
I was told that, "once-upon-a-time" our club was one of those that also recognized SFA as an insurance carrier at our field. I heard that AMA "ran them off" by not allowing AMA chartering or sanctioning. What's up with that.... MONOPOLY.............
Hey all, I just saw another thread that was started similar to this, "How can the AMA be improved?"... Read Gordon Mc's entry (third entry).........There you go.... BRAVO!!!!
