I agree with TK88. Beating the proverbial dead horse. If others reconsidered and wished to sign up, I am sure nobody would turn them away.

Chapter 15 wishes to continue on, and yes, some of us passionate enough about the hobby want to do so, not for our own selfish reasons, but to benefit others. Give and take!
As busy as many of us are (we have our own businesses to run) we try to engage others to participate and enjoy the hobby; whether it be the equipment, folks or food the end result is supposed to be FUN. JM

Been two months since your last post Juiceman . Any update ?

Hi, Folks.
'A little birdie' tells me that the DowNunda ACMOC chapters are all doing well, thank you, and having fun - AND they're ALL contract chapters.

Wottz moor, I'm told that they are having Caterpillar dealer involvement and even some visitors from Caterpillar Inc., U.S.A. - who didn't know about ACMOC until they encountered it DowNunda.

Could there just possibly maybe perhaps might be sum kinda messidge in there????? (Please excuse the spelling? - I'm 'justa pore, dumm bulldozer op'rator and so don't know much.)

Just my 0.02.

Thank you for inquiring: YES, Cal-Sierra Tracklayers Inc.aka Chapter 15 is alive and well. We kept our promises to the membership and followed thru.
We have several shows and fairs to participate in, and there is downside, as we have been asked by many new ones, that we cannot fit them into the calendar.
The process was NOT difficult, as we have a brilliant committee as well has dedicated volunteers at the "ONE FIVE".
Lots to be said about having some of the "BEST" members. We wouldn't be here because of them. JM

So Gee, is chapter 15 an official contract chapter? Were you able to meet all the demands that were made to become a contract chapter? Has chapter 5 thrown in with yiu?  Just curious.

So  chapter was unable to get the process done before the deadline . So applied for time extension . So after 6 months  finally get it done . I dont understand . Did  the process get changed to make it easier ?
 

I can answer the question. 'Did the process get changed to make it easier?'. No, the process did not change to make it easier, it has always been easy, just requires a positive mindset to actually do it, for people with a positive mindset it is never hard or difficult.

it just took longer than expected but lets understand these people have day jobs that take priority.

I can't seem to get a answer to my question. Chapter 5 and 15 are still listed as subsidiary chapters. I ask the ACMOC board , are chapter 15  and 5 an official contract chapter?

Refreshing post. Waiting for an answer.
