<< Or is it more an attempt to prevent any one person from sponsoring new members in the attempt to build a political coalition of some kind? >> ****************************************************************************** ********************** I'm sure that this is the reason that the number of applicants one can sponsor in a given year is limited. In the greyhound we had had, some years back, a person who wished to become the delegate. Being quite well heeled, she paid for the membership of a dozen or so people and she and her husband sponsored them herself. The rest of the membership was caught flatfooted, having never experienced nor expected such shenanigans. The person was elected to a three year term by quite a margin. This club, at the time had only about 100 members so a dozen new members definitely made a difference. The ACKCS club is very wise to take this precaution even though we all know this kind of thing could never happen among the ladies and gentlemen of our club!!
