Horrace, your inability to answer any post without becoming insulting is SO typical. To bad...
As to all of your quoting and paraphrasing and lecturing....you still failed to answer the basic question: is CDing a contest(i.e., a sanctioned event) of BENEFIT to the AMA or is it of BENEFIT to the club? Is AMA any better off by a CD running a contest or not? Is running a contest done for AMA or for the CLUB?
Yes, food for thought, so start thinking.

How about you start reading?
>>>>>>>>"While an event may be for the club, obtaining a sanction (a mechanism of social control for enforcing a society's standards c: explicit or official approval), is the work of an AMA CD and then performing the labor is exercising the objectives of the AMA Bylaws, therefore the CD is performing a service to AMA."
<<<<<<<<<<
In addition, in the first question you used the noun form "service". Then you change to the noun form of "benefit", then ask for whom the benefit is performed. Granted the word forms are synomous, however it displays better form when one keeps his question the same.
In any and all cases any AMA Sanctioned Event may benefit both the Club and the AMA, or just either one. The service is performed under direct authority of and FOR the AMA. Explicitly explained in the AMA Membership Manual, page 6, top 40% of page, in the Competitions Regulations, page iv, and in the Bylaws as previously specified.
As for insulting, Mr. Lee, methinks you do well enough for your own intelligence and no help is warranted from this dumb country boy. I only specify for you a direction to find your form of food.
