There are always a lot of people who start activities but then drop out for a wide variety of reasons. Astute observation. It would be nice to find a way reduce that "first termer" attrition by promoting an atmosphere which reinforces the reasons they took the time and trouble to come aboard.

I've seen it in scouting, college, classic car clubs, etc. Exactly why newcomers move on to other pursuits is one of life's mysteries in most cases. It's a dirty job but somebody around here had to get to the bottom of the bottom lines around here eventually. You did, thankew for putting the cork in it William and g'nite. .. . . dit dit . . .=20 =20 Cheers, Bill K2UNK w3rv |
