Meet & Greet- August??

[dmd7765]

Anyone want to take the lead on the next meet & greet? We have done one in Westland & St Clair Shores. Restaurant that is gun friendly, prefer a private room or any area where we wont disrupt the other patrons.

PM dmd7765 or Mikeb32 if you are interested in taking the lead.

Thanks

The first meet in Westland had a fair turnout. The second one in St.Clair Shores should have been better, but only 6 bodies showed up. What can we do to get more folks to show up?

The person that comes up the solution gets the chicken dinner! Seriously, it's a problem nobody has found an answer to and so far the suggestions people have come up with have been done, suggested before, been there, done that, didn't work, nobody cared.

Speaking of nobody caring, Remember all the whining, bitc...., ready to string them up (the BOD ) the I would run the .org perfect if I was on the BOD talk of several month's past ?

Well there are 5, count them 5!!! BOD seats open this year and how many new volunteers have stepped up to bid for election? crickets!!!!!!!!!!!


"Give something away? I'll donate 100 rounds of 9mm " Doubt it would work, people would complain it wasn't the right cal. for them to bother to come out for!

But Thank you for the offer to do so!!!!

Heck, we give a gun away FREE just for voting, you don't even have to be there, ( I think you should if you can, IMHO ) but anyway we had a better response last year because of it, but for the number of members eligible to vote, it was a very poor showing.

Yeah you're right! Nothing will work! The organization is doomed due to negativity!

Nothing proposed / tried so far has produced the numbers it should, those who do come to events and do the volunteering would do so without perks / incentive's and have done so, My Thanks to all of them!!

Doomed ? no, as long as there is a forum, people will still log on. An organization that has people out in the real world doing things.......

negativity, If you mean to imply my attitude, I don't think I am negative, it's just the truth, I am just pointing out what I see from being at as many MGO functions as I can get to.

Let's have a show of hands, how many have been to at least one MGO event for each year they have been on the forum? 39,414 registered users, all welcome to attend event's, distill that number down anyway you want, reality is we have a poor turn out.

The solution to the turn out issue has yet to be solved and for the record I am not opposed to finding one, just saying we haven't found it yet.
