I'm pretty darn sure this would not be considered "encryption to obscure the meaning" -- it is a widely known code and both coding and decoding software is pretty available. At least 4 apps for the iPhone, all free - Neoreader is probably the easiest, Android has an application, as well as many other phones -- there is also an open source decoder for those who would want to integrate it into an SSTV program or D-STAR TV. Encoding can be as easy as using this website - http://qrcode.kaywa.com/
Of course clubs could also make a bumper sticker or decal to advertise. (BTW for full disclosure mavericklabel.com is my employer, when I was asked to put the article up, it looked interesting.)
