I know of no clubs that are not AMA, we have just lost our lease in NE Houston and now are in the search of leasing another field, The first thing that the landowner asked "Does your club have any liability insurance?", I am unaware of any clubs that operate without AMA affiliation, we also having been speaking with the local government and they were also inquiring about insurance coverage. We have a member of our club that owns 65 acres which is located fairly close to another rc field in the area (1.4 miles) that has offered to the club for $100.00 per year, but he will require everyone to be a AMA member which is ok I guess, we formed a committee tonight to take the lead and move forward.
