So just to toot my clubs horn further: another way that VMST contributes to our LMSC's community is that it shoulders something like 33% of the cost of our paper newsletter directly (the rest is from member fees, and VMST members comprise about 35% of that revenue stream). And most of the volunteers at the LMSC level are also VMST members. Possibly FXCM does these sorts of things too, which would be welcome news.
In our LMSC, most of the LMSC level volunteers are from some of the smaller teams. Just under half of the total volunteers are from teams with less than 60 members, and only one is from FXCM (and that member is typically the only one from FXCM that attends the three-times yearly meetings we hold).
Additionally, it is these same smaller teams that usually run the events in the LMSC- the notable exception being the Albatross Open (host team has just over 200 members). Even the wildly popular Jim McDonnell Lake Swim's host team doesn't break 100 members, and it take a large chunk of their membership to run the event.
