[OFARC] FW: Community Building Use restrictions

Sat Dec 12 22:06:10 EST 2020

    I think that inviting the public to any club event with the VOVID 
out there is a bad idea and opens liability  issues.  If a few guys want 
to make a WFD  happen for just themselves,  then it is just some friends 
getting togather and playing radio
