Another option used by many others, with great success, would be to simply ignore and plead ignorance to the BOD desires. Maybe have a buddy or your favorite BOD member stand in the box with you at the most opportune times and eventually things will get back to “normal” after awhile. Sort of like adverse possession laws...just take what is yours quietly. The BOD is in CYA mode and very likely may only need a wink and a nod. Since your perspective is greater than anyone else hear or there, only you know the right answer. good luck
LCS-
Do you really think anybody in that club would ever fail to notice that he is ignoring the BOD's desires? The notion that he could 'plead ignorance' of the conditions the BOD has placed on is frankly absurd. It's all here in this thread and can't be eradicated - might as well be chiseled in granite.
As for the BOD ignoring their own position with 'a wink and a nod,' I think having rules that are not enforced is the worst possible trap clubs set for themselves (or BODs set for them, as the case may be). At best it is a set-up for discrimination, aka 'selective enforcement.' At worst, if a club member gets into a major liability situation and was violating a safety rule at the time, it
will be an issue in determining the settlement, regardless of whether or not the rule violated is cited as an exclusion from insurance coverage. I belong to a club that has about 3 dozen such rules, some having never been enforced
AFAIK. I have been a club officer in the past, before this proliferation of rules came about. I won't touch it with a pole now.
