I guess things vary a lot from chapter to chapter.
But there isa lot of value to a monthly meeting, if you are really into it. You can learn amazing things from other magicians
It is always darkest just before you are eaten by a grue.

I agree Cyberqat. I've been a member of the IBM for almost 20 years and don't regret it at all. I was a member at one time and there wasn't even a club within 100 miles of where I lived. Didn't stop me. It gave me the option to visit a club in another city when traveling and a pretty good monthly magic magazine that I have learned a lot from.
If someone doesn't want to join the IBM or SAM, fine. Not a problem at all. I, on the other hand, enjoy mine and do get things from my membership. It works for me. Mark. |

Many feeling it's an unneeded and unnecessary expense as the club itself in no way benefits from being an official ring. We were an unassociated club for many years before one of our presidents persuaded he membership to become a recognized branch of the IBM. The club was almost evenly divided on this issue. But the vote to become a ring narrowly squeaked by. A decade later the tide has turned and a movement is afoot to disenfranchise our club from the IBM. We probably won't go to the trouble of officially getting our charter pulled. We will just stop requiring our members to join the IBM. which won't be much of an issue as we have no way to verify who is and isn't a member of the IBM at the moment anyway.

Do people belong to both or is it one or the other?
