For some reason, few wanted to meet at a rec center. The main reason was folks wanted to get together outdoors when weather permitted, indoors when not. Forming a club is relatively easy. There was one other major issue — for some reason, TOTV appeared to be some sort of threat to the Developer (refused to allow ads in The Sun, no fliers allowed at town squares, etc.). Even so, a rec center as a club would probably be the best route. The only question is which rec center? Everyone would want it close to them. Kind of difficult with TV’s size today.

Do we need to be associated per se with TOTV to start a club? We could be the lobster lovers and haters, or something like that.
