Having been a member at a club that had 2 events per year I can understand the concern - and we were able to play 10 months per year. Each event removed 3-4 weeks of membership play.

Makes perfect sense to me.

But I am sure we will hear much more about it.

Some people just want to make issues out of stuff.
