Jada posted: The Fan Force Rules are global. They weren't directed at any one chapter. However, there are chapters out there that had started requiring people to pay dues in order to vote and to have a costume in order to attend events. Nobody should ever HAVE to do either since that isn't the reason Fan Force was created.
If you have questions about the Fan Force Rules the best place to ask them is in Fan Force Communications. There is already a thread established for questions about the rules.
That's insane! Nobody ever said that was an issue with any of the fan force chapters.
How could anyone expect anyone else to spend the time and money to be part of a voluntary group by forcing them to get a costume, and pay to vote? I just don't get that at all.

Well, even though I always say it takes money to run a chapter and that money should be kept track of it shouldn't prevent a person from being a viable, active member of a chapter.
But yes there have been a few chapters that have either required a costume or required $$ in order to be a member. Pity.

Hey there!
Just wanted to thank all of you for letting me join you this afternoon. I enjoyed seeing you again and I got a lot of chuckles out of the meeting. I'm looking forward to Howl-O-Ween, and maybe some of the other events also.
Thanks again...I'll be watching.

August meeting minutes
Attendance:
-firstsonofsolo
-_Anakin_Vader_
_Kickingnscreaming
-Hal9k1
-Mr. Wookiee
-dialswiftjustice
-Phil
-Amber of Borg
-Glenn
-Gabriel
-JediObiKat
-RebelMom
-Cathiecat
-mothman (Brandon)
Minutes:
-Treasurer: since the TFF itself does not actually hold money, we do not need a treasurer, however there are items that belong to the TFF as a group (the banner, and let me know what else specifically), so the secretary can keep a list of these items
-T-shirts: probably not - we would need an order of about 50 to make it cost effective
-TMC: this will be a Fan Force event, two dates: Sunday Sept. 16 10am-done and Wednesday Oct. 31 10am-done. They want no more than 5 people costumed, major characters only. Also on Halloween, we will do a visit to the children's rehabilitation clinic on the TMC campus from 3-4:30...again, they want about 5-6 people costumed (+1-2 wranglers). Let Dustin know if you will be going to any of these.
-Halloween evening: DSG event on Mill Ave in Tempe
-Howl-o-ween at Reid Park zoo: Oct 26-28, 6-8pm Fri&Sat, 5-7pm Sun. Big event-->everyone should come, costumed or just in a SW t-shirt. We will be in the polar bear area again, but we will also have the giraffe feeding area. If you can provide some backup candy, that would be nice in case the zoo-provided candy runs out. There will another planning meeting for the event (for those interested) on Sat. Sept. 8, 9 am at the zoo (it does cost something to get in).
-TFF advertising: somebody in Phoenix can make stickers/decals for car bumpers, it would be about $8/sticker and would feature the TFF website...
-Light parade-it's in December
-New TFF rules are posted online
-Labor day Tusken raider building party in Phoenix led by Dustin
-NEXT MEETING: Sunday Sept. 23, 4-6pm at Toyboxx (can somebody post the actual address? not the confusing directions! :-), show up earlier if you want to look around the store and have ice cream. FSOS will submit the meeting time to the main page.
-Standardized meeting times: 2nd Sunday of every month and 2pm, we will try to hold them at the library
-Minis: sounds liek it is going well, it's like RPG on a gameboard. Anyone who wants to try can join the group.
-RPG: yes, RPG is still open to new members! but what's this I hear about my character getting shattered to pieces while I was away or us being in a not-so-SW-more-like-AVP universe....?
-Book club: I get moving on the thread so we can decide on a book and time
