We covered a ton of ground during the meeting but the overall focus for the first half, as we heard from both the Building Maintenance side and the Foundation side tonight, was what can we do to make the building more usable for our members and more attractive to rent to the public. Long term planning is quickly becoming the key for all the Divan members as we try to put together a strategy to move us where we want to be in the future.
And speaking of the future, we spent some time this evening discussing the life blood of Antioch, Membership. We talked about multiple angles which we are going to use to work to meet our goals this year but the key to all plans will be the follow up. Talk is cheap and now is the time for action. I'm also excited to be seeing notes from the various clubs reminding them of the special membership reinstatement and new member fees for 2012.
The last item I am going to mentioned which we discussed was communications. We have to make sure as many members as possible hear the message and actively participate in the programs to be a success. We are introducing some new communication tools for our Directors and Ambassadors to use which will hopefully allow the Divan members present at meetings more of an opportunity to bring new ideas to the membership and answer questions.
