Not to be a smartass Jim, but a great way to start boosting numbers would be for you to start flying it again. We have seen a great increase here in D2, however I would get in touch with Rusty Dose, I think his e-mail is [email protected]. He is the new treasurer and he's very energetic and has a fire within him to get membership numbers back up. I would talk to him and bounce ideas off of his head, as well as listen to what he has to say. Other than that, just get out there and try and promote it. There are several new guys that are flying out here that also fly giant scale and they have absolutely fallen in love with pattern. So it's not impossible to convert GS guys, or even to get them to consider it, you just have to do it. I really do hope that you can start attracting people back into this great sport. It sure is a lot more fun to actually have people to fly against that are serious; believe it or not it is a great way to make friends. Take care.
