I joined this group last week when I paid my dues.

However, I appear to be a Guest, not a Member, since I am not allowed to contact individuals.

I would appreciate some help from an administrator of this site who can correct this situation.

Thank you,

Rob Lawson, Member

Patience, grasshopper! On the landing page (when I joined) there was a message about needing request the set-up, and to email the contact listed there. It took few weeks when I joined before I could access the 'member' areas.

Thank you, Paul, for the advice. I'll try to be patient. Don't remember seeing an email for a contact.

Rob you are not being snubbed, I promise. The AFCA is a 100% volunteer organization run by folks who have full time jobs elsewhere. For that reason, it takes some time for everything to get processed. The good thing is not one penny of your dues goes toward paying any of the officers or directors. The bad thing is that means we are a little slow.

Pay, no,...
    perquisites, yes.

I will explain how this works, member updates are done on Mondays only, by the club secretary, sometimes she may be on vacation or not feeling well, so the update for new members may take longer than you expected. We have very few people to do a lot of work.

I am pretty sure you guys have a funny story that goes along with the picture of the "Corporate Jet". I want to hear it.

Well, Gerry, I wish it was more comical, but at one point there was a lot of kidding going around on the forum about the Board members flying to and from FanFair and other meets on the corporate jet, and well, I admit to altering a photo I found of a private black jet to look like it had the new AFCA logo on it.

Unfortunately, I believe the dues we pay to be members barely cover the printing of the magazine and our yearly web and forum hosting (if it covers that), so I highly doubt that there is any room left for any perks let alone a corporate jet.

Honestly though, I think Rocky keeps the jet parked at his place in case he hears about an Emerson Jr. for sale somewhere. 😂
