How not to Blow up as taps suggests.. Please don't do what I do...run away...the only person who gets hurt is yourself ...I know!!
I reckon to keep pushing her in your own non confrontal way and she will disappear.
My Mother would have the last word. She would call her "an old Biddy, an old busy body ...just a hussy!!!" But she would only say this to us her daughters, just to get it off her chest. Bless you Mum.

What a hag...
Sorry, but I got my dander up. People like that try my patience no end. I've met a few in my lifetime and I have trouble being polite when it happens. It sound like you are really trying (but don't blow up because of it).

Maybe she is one of those who get a charge out of this kind of contest! In which case it might be good to follow Ciel's advice...

I wonder if she will back down. Perhaps she wants to be in charge more than you do.
Democracy, put it to the vote. You don't need them as much as they need you.

She's on not just a different page, she's reading a different book
...maybe on a different planet.
I like your allegory, and can understand how you feel so rudely, perhaps even intentionally sabotaged. If she doesn't back off, I suggest inviting her to go start her own group.
Or for you to take your core group who don't care for the recent 'improvements' and meet elsewhen, if not elsewhere.
