Questioning the actions of native Michigan board members in these national organizations has been 'taboo' since the last fiasco involving leadership here in-state was defined as 'complicated' by these same people. These groups have obviously had no problem historically electing board members preaching the "me-only" vs "shared trails" concept for years (see their most recent land grab in the Hiawatha National Forest)
while we send money in expecting 100% support for the latter.(not support for some arrogant 'sub-group' within the light OHV category who obviously feel some kind of inalienable right to
massive amounts of our limited
multi-use mileage).
Non-profit board members don't like talk of how other non-profits operate outside of government mandaded limitations; which is the case here in Michigan with these
anonymous "22,000 member" council. I would never be connected with any board which condoned these closed/back door antics of their members and feel that very simple questions involving how these people have operated to date is the only very well spelled out issue here.
