I'm not sure the "rebel" thing is a really good excuse. It's not like Oklahoma is a place dripping in formalism

Well we have proper dress attire for Chapter Meetings...but as formal as yours...we have a business casual policy: button down shirt, khakis or slacks, brown or black shoes, tie, and badge.
I've also found that making meeting attendance optional gets rid of the guys who fool around all meeting with their side conversations. When I was Recorder my policy is: You don't have to be here but don't whine when we do something you don't like. If you ARE here you better have a pen, paper, and not have any side conversations.
Totally gave off a feeling of serious business.
