I am not at all surprised to find that our Rally figures are still dropping . After all what is the club doing to " keep up with the times" ? Nothing as far as I can see that helps rally attendance. Lets talk facts . Here we are with high speed internet at our finger tips do we use it NO we do not . By that I am referring to the late fee for signing up for a rally. Personally I feel this must be dropped as it is not needed,, anyone who decides late should be more then welcome to attend . They should not be penalized for this fact either . After all how long does it take to transmit an e mail from our home office to the rally site ,or rally master. SECONDS.What have we done about changing some of our rally basics like meals. I notice Good Sam has meals & fairly cheap as well. That is a big attraction as well ..WE also penalize our chapters that might like to attend a national rally.. We say if you want to park together "come together" why. Let them advise us how many are coming and set up a space accordingly. ..Seems pretty simple to me .I think with a bit of thought we could be making MANY changes to increase attendance with wonderful results . I guess we are just to darn OLD....
