It sounds like it is time for a membership drive. Either that, or it's time for the club to do some serious fundraising. $250 a year sounds to me like a very high membership fee. So how could your club possibly attract any new people in the next couple of years? Chances are it won't, and when it doesn't it will be left with 10 guys who refuse to quit and a flying facility that is not maintained properly because there aren't enough people. Without a way to increase membership, your club is probably done for.
