I don't know how this works but the thought popped into my head today. Now that MOC is an official, non-profit organization do we need to pull permits or do anything special when holding get togethers in public parks or other public property?
Just wonderin'

I want to make it clear that anyone can have get-togethers and dinners, etc., but not all will be an "official" MOC event without the support or okay of the board.
As a organization we don't want an anti-OC group to have a picnic and say they are representing MOC and then proceed to engage in activities that would be detrimental to MOC. We want to have some control overwho can and can not use our name.
Also keep in mind that you can notspeak officially for MOC. You can speak generally and say you are a participate on the open carry forum and spread the word about OC. When we start having paying members you can also say you are a member of MOC, but you still could not speak in an official capacity for MOC unless you have permission from the board or regional coordinator.
Hopefully we will have region coordinators that will be able to speak in an official manner on certain topics and be able to okay local events within their regions.
