Default RE: Membership decline???

Our club has in the last 4 years seen a reduction of members, and of course to belong to the club one must belong to AMA. When ask why they quit the club and AMA, simpley put, don't need the BS, and do not want to support Muncie and a good o'l boys club. As the numbers indicate most members of a club are the "gummers" as some one put it. The future is electric and flying at the local socer field, or open space, and as I personally have found a couple places to fly IMMA legal birds, why should I spend $100 or more on fees each year just to enjoy the hobby. I also am thinking very hard of dropping AMA.
