Default rhinestones on HOG PATCH

My question is ...Is the rule against adding rhinestones to the HOG patch?
When I attended HOT training there were about 50 ladies there with them on their patch, so I decided to do mine as well. Now there is a member in our chapter telling me that is against HOG rules..Can someone help me ..

If it against the rules, then there's 50 rule breakers. I don't know for sure but I can't see why it would matter.

I feel the same way, but I am an Assistant Director and I surely dont want to do anything against the rules...

Now, although I'm not familiar with rhinestones on patches, I am a little intrigued by your statement "HOT training with 50 ladies" Can you post a photo of one of the sessions please so we all get some idea and might sign up to one of those courses too????

Welcome to the forum.

Answer: only if you're a guy.

Personally, rules are the primary reason I don't belong to clubs and organizations like HOG.

How 'bout If you're an officer, shouldn't you have a manual/rule book? Or just have the other person pull out their rule book & show you.
