John let's do it I am more then willing to meet and set this club in a positive direction. I just think some new brains in office that will add new ideas but I am willing to help out til we get to those new ideas. Like bob said weekends are just busy for most of us. But I am free most nights during the week and if you got warriors games on even better. Only day that doesn't work for me is Wednesday nights

Sounds like Robert is willing to pick up the reins. Thank you. And then there's Thysrof's classic line: "If we all do a little, no one has to do too much".
The club has a strange perpetual momentum, where even when things look bleak organizationally, some form continues on. The downside is when solid members such as Sean try to do the right thing, it can result in frustration.
When I joined the club eight years ago, we used to meet monthly during the week, on the 3rd Friday of the month as I recall. If weeknight meetings are more accessible for people, then switching back to those makes sense. With my current schedule, that's less convenient for me, but I would still try to make them versus blowing them off categorically.
Summer weekend meetings have been popular because of kind members such as Bob opening up his wonderful house and pool for our use. Pool party meetings at Bob's are always a good time. Chrispy also invited us to his winery one beautiful summer day, which was awesome. And we've field tripped to the Cal Academy of Sciences on the weekend thanks to another member's connection. Recently there was Carlos' magic pizza oven. Mmmmmm.
Frequency of meeting (monthly versus semi-monthly) might be worth discussing.
Food, drink and raffle are fun components of our meetings. Add a special event or guest speaker and it's even more delightful. I personally think the raffle is a good thing and should be continued. I also like a potluck, as many small contributions from members means no one has to do it all.
It's our club. We can do as little or as much as we want. What are people wanting to do?

I've been saying the same thing since the inception of the club. Look back at my rants , Have it the same day, time & place and people can plan for it in advance .
And that will grow the club.
I've known for the last 30 years that the San Francisco Aquarium Society meetings are the first Friday of the month at 7 pm . The location has changed a couple of times due to the construction of the new steinhart aquarium . But it's been pretty consistent .

Did this topic resume somewhere else or do we not have a club?
Even when I think I have a free weekend I end up finding out I don't. The one pool party I was able to attend was made possible by a last minute postponement of a side job.
I would love to help any way possible and will be watching the forum more closly to see what occurs.
