Is this something an insurance carrier would care about if the governing documents for this organization specifically say that volunteers are generally not liable unless it is willful misconduct
Insurance carriers may still be interested in this situation since the document highlights potential governance failures and liability exposure. Even if volunteers are generally not liable, the mention of willful misconduct could be significant. It’s advisable to provide supporting documentation to strengthen your case.
If they don’t have directors in officers insurance does it even matter
If the Urbana Recreation Council (URC) does not have Directors and Officers (D&O) insurance, it could limit the financial protection available for board members against personal liability claims. However, highlighting governance failures and liability exposure in your communication still matters, as it may influence the organization's decision-making and accountability. Consider consulting with a legal expert to explore other avenues for addressing these issues.
I’ve hit a brick wall with my attorney that’s why I’m here, they want to back down and I need to signal that I’m still serious

The * Frederick County “Policy and Guidelines for Establishment and Operation of Recreation Councils” does state that:
“Generally, a volunteer is not personally liable for damages in any civil action brought against the volunteer by virtue of the volunteer’s act or omission in providing services or performing duties on behalf of a Recreation Council program.”
“A volunteer is personally liable when damages were the result of the volunteer’s negligent operation of a motor vehicle, willful, wanton, or grossly negligent act or omission, or permitting an unsupervised competition, practice, or activity.”:
• Default rule: Volunteers are protected from personal liability while acting on behalf of the council.
• Exception: That protection is lost if the act was:
• Willful misconduct
• Wanton disregard
• Gross negligence
• Specific negligent acts (e.g., unsupervised activities)

Here's a suggestion for structuring your communication with the insurance carrier:
---
Subject: Notification of Governance Failures and Liability Concerns
Dear [Insurance Carrier Contact],
I am writing to inform you of serious governance failures and potential liability exposure involving the Urbana Recreation Council (URC) board, which operates under the Frederick County Association of Recreation Councils (FCARC). Despite multiple opportunities for corrective action, no steps have been taken to address these concerns.
Key Points:
- Issuance of punitive actions violating bylaws.
- Misrepresentation of county guidance.
- Retaliatory conduct negatively impacting co-parenting relationships.
- Liability for willful misconduct as per governing documents.
I believe notifying you of these issues is crucial, given the potential legal implications and the board's refusal to act. I am prepared to provide supporting documentation upon request.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Lisa Carr
