FCA non disclosure agreement for chapter presidents

Not a FCA chapter President. For mere mortals (), what does the non-disclosure agreement say?

 

He can’t say!

The people at FNA and Spa are such control freaks, they can't stand the idea of group operating independently.

 

Perhaps it would be better to contact others directly/discreetly/privately ?
I imagine their contact info can be found on the club’s National online/print publications and/or website.

While I don’t hold any administrative/official position (nor ever will) in FCA (or any other clubs I’m a member), I suspect this has nothing to do with FNA or Spa, but rather internal politics (which is why I don’t seek any elected positions anywhere).

 

One might characterize it as a loyalty oath to the FCA.

 

Or the 4th Reich.

**** I have some cars on order I should prob delete that

 

Why do you consider or compare Ferrari Club of America to a dictatorial state ?
Just curious.

 

I know, but proper comprehension of context can make a difference, especially in politically motived comments.

 

When I was Naples Chapter President I made sure the limited members list I had was carefully guarded. Many reasons exist for the protection of the members. FCA National needs to be the conduit for providing lists when needed and safeguarding same. Including communications. Certainly there are going to be questions. I know the top guys well. Heck one of them is there because of me! I would trust them without question. Been there done that.

 

Exactly.


Maybe people ought to ignore the black helicopters a little and just take it at face value.
If that is beyond their ability serving as an officer is totally voluntary.

 

FNA really doesn't care. In fact, they rather not be involved. Its Spa and you are correct. Control freaks and not for the protection of the brand, just for its own sake. That and they really want to monetize everything but we fooled them. More than any other the FCA is more of an everymans club than is the norm globally and we really don't feel like buying $2000 official blazers to attend club events.

 

Lol at the blazer. Insert favorite judge Smails photo here.

 

Was this in response to what happened to the Minnesota chapter?

 

308-G,

I'm fairly new to The Clan - just what are the benefits to an individual to joining FCA? - other than the Judge Smails jacket, or course!

FYI - I'm in the middle of the cornfields, 120 miles from Chicago and the only Ferrari in my county - so "elbow rubbing at the local watering hole with other prancing ponies" isn't on the list.

And exactly what "politics and heavy handed legal tactics of the club’s upper management" are we talking about? I have been very involved in the FCA since the 80's. Assisted in nearly 20 annual meets and have not once felt or seen any negative aspect of "Politics" or "Heavy handed legal tactics" at the national level that effected membership in any way.
In every case in my experience either of those that have had any negative effect on membership originated at a local level by dictatorial regional or chapter leaders. I am aware of in that period of a few events maybe not well handled but certainly not something that trickled down to membership level. Over a period that long it defies reason that any organization would not have a couple bumps in the road.

Sounds like tin foil hat stuff to me.

 

I will go on to say if political BS really bothers you do not get involved in any organizations hierarchy. None are devoid of it. It is contrary to human nature.

 

One that no one is forced to take. Cannot agree to sign, no big deal. Stay a member and have fun. Let someone more amenable sign it.

 

That’s what a car club should always be about…

 

And as it applies to your experience does the national club not do that?
