[APD] New England Aquatic Plant Society (NEAPS) Meeting discussion.
Hello All,
A club's strength depends on the membership's involvement in online
discussions and participation at monthly meetings. Unfortunately for our
group, we have seen a steady decrease in interest partly due to the
inability to attend meetings as a result proximity issues associated with
the New England region. Although we have attempted to remedy these issues
by spreading the meetings around the New England area, the attendance and
involvement of the members has steadily faded.
Because of this decline in attendance, our officers are forced to reevaluate
the need for our monthly meetings and would like input from both members and
nonmebers for a solution to the issue that plagues this group. One
suggestion has been to make the meetings quarterly and to advertise well in
advance to allow adequate planning for people to attend. There are also
other clubs that work strictly as an online group based on the same distance
issue and our officers would welcome any feedback with regards to these
groups. Until we obtain some information with which to make an informed
decision, our meetings will be suspended for the time being and interactions
will be limited to the website's forum at www.ne-aquaticplants.com.
We would like any ideas that might improve the membership involvement and
participation.
Thanks in advance.
Bailin Shaw
