One of the hard things for all types of club is keeping the momentum
going. One of the problems that amateur radio clubs face is developing
activities that are inclusive of the majority of members. When we think
about this, we realise that the hobby is very diverse in the areas that
can attract personal interest - homebrew can be anything from kits to
replicas, antennas to transceivers, analogue and digital. Field
activities can be QRP, contest and DX or any mix of all these things.
So within our clubs we need to find ways of including people in ways
that can allow them to share their interests and encourage others in
growing their knowledge and experience of this great hobby. Not every
one wants to be a paper hanger and cover the shack walls with
certificates and awards and not every one is an avid collector of QSL
cards but we can share why these things make our personal enjoyment of
the hobby better and the tricks we have learned to do things better. Our
personal enthusiasm for the aspects of the hobby can be a big incentive
for some one else to dip their toe in the water.
It has been around for a long time and is a bit corny but the following
can be a way of helping us focus on how we can help our club.
Someone has said that membership of any organisation is made up of four
bones....
There are the "wishbones" who spend all their time wishing someone else
would do the work....
There are the "jawbones" who do all the talking but very little of
anything else....
Next comes the "knucklebones" who knock everything that everyone else
tries to do....
And, finally, there are the "backbones", who get under the load and do
the work.
What kind of member are you?
