The OSMF allows use of the trademarks for a wide range of community
activities (essentially everything)

No, but you don't get to use the OSMF marks (for example in the name)
etc (as already has been layed out in the discussion).

As has already been said there are currently no guidelines one way or
the other.

See https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Local_Chapters (not exactly hidden).
