Sorry Brian, we're not all as lucky as you and your group. We get what
we pay for. It's worked for us for the past 8 years. We like meeting
indoors with predictable amenities.
insurance: Why???
Really? You're unaware of the risk that liability insurance mitigates?
Our members don't feel like our group or our officers should be
personally liable if a guest should slip and fall at one of our
meetings or events. Our group doesn't really have enough money in the
bank to self-insure, should something like that happen.
Internet: you can't find an internet connection??
We're also not lucky enough to have municipal wi-fi or live in a
locale that provides free, available internet access everywhere.
Projector, Screen, sound system: This is a user group, not a rock
concert
Again, it would get kind of crowded to have 40+ people gathered around
a laptop screen and have the presenter have to speak at a level that
would make them or the group uncomfortable.
Come on, really?
I find it hard to take your questions seriously, because they seemed a
bit far-fetched for this list. But since your group doesn't seem to
have the same kind of challenges that some of us have. But that's
great that you don't! Keep us informed about the growth in your group!
