I plan to be there. My membership expired in June, can I re-up there?

Am I allowed to bring non-members?  I have a couple of friends that might benefit from an impromptu OC education that are interested in coming.

If you are are carpooling, I see no reason they shouldn't come early with you.

Membership meeting is at 12:00, with elections, etc. General picnic starts at 1:30.

It'd be stupid if I told you, "no, your non-member friend can't ride from _____ in a pool with you because they can't be around for the meeting!"

That being said....the membership meeting is for, well, members.

That's as ridiculous as having a members only section in the forums only for members. BTW, I propose that the MOC board consider giving Michigander a lifetime free membership so he can stop whining that he can't see the members only section because he failed to pay his By-Laws mandated membership dues renewal. After all he is the founder of MOC.

Too funny, I just read that whole thread over there. I know I'm new here (membership wise) but I agree with you Pat. BTW, you were one of the reasons I joined.
