I am pretty neutral on the Deep South Cruisers name. From what I have
understood there was some bad blood with the Deep South Cruisers
chapter. I am not what sure happened. Years have past since the
chapter was was active. There are many pros and cons with the name.
Some Cons is the bad blood among fellow individuals and/or clubs. This
could lead to future issues if people fail to realize this is a new
club with new charter members. I don't foresee this being an issue
though. Some pros include using a familar name, but with a new image.
People know that name. We could also use merchandise and materials
from the old chapter to get us started and save money.
Yellowhammer Cruisers or Alabama Land Cruisers are good names that
relate to our state. While Gulf State Cruisers or Dixieland Cruisers
relate to our region making it attractive to residents of other states
in the Southeast.
