Why was the advertising seeking donations for Johns Foundation blocked from publication in Blueprints and the Montgomery catalog?

The Board felt that, until the USKBTC Charitable Funds were in place, and the Club had the opportunity to explain the new initiatives to the membership, it would be confusing and perhaps misleading to permit independent foundation advertising, as many members would assume endorsement/affiliation with the USKBTC. We believe this was the right decision, and we are currently formulating a policy to govern what advertisements will be accepted for publication in show catalogs and internal publications where the USKBTC is the controlling entity. Our membership roster is available and has been used by the Foundation to solicit funds. While we would prefer our list not be used for unauthorized solicitations, we cannot control what others do with the information.

What is your question?

*Sadly, we had to bring back ads too. Hopefully more targeted.
