THE BIBLE
2024
The “Bible” is the law for Utopia FFL for the current year. The Bible will be revised if needed after the Banquet
where any rule changes will be
discussed. Once the new years’ Bible is complete, no rule changes will take place without a 100% concurrence. At the
Banquet rules will be changed
based on a majority vote of owners present and owners that could not be present (via e-mail to commissioner)
AND SO IT IS WRITTEN.
