Much like SUNI I would expect: those that can make it, can. Everyone
else, in their smaller local chapters, would have their own events and
report on them to the parent club. We use the Internet to collect
ourselves together, virtually. Maybe once every couple years the Club
holds a larger event, either world-wide or on a per-continent basis.
I'd do what I can. Mind you, there's a Sunbeam Owners of Canada club
that I haven't got around to joining...
