Trying to stay in my lane, I promise

True, I'm NPC, not NPHC, but this is a situation we can all relate to. My parents' Elks Lodge is having a similar situation. (!!)
All I want to offer is this - sometimes you have to put aside your personal opinions and focus on the big picture. If the NPHC event is purely social, I can see that you might wish, and be justified, to just skip it. But, if the event is a philanthropic one, or one that seeks to promote NPHC orgs to the larger community, would you be able to think about the larger good being served by sucking it up and putting up with annoying people in order to fulfil a worthwhile goal?
