We're not particularly analytics driven so keeping attendance isn't a
massive priority compared to culture and morale. But this was a good prompt
to look and ask some questions.

I started digging into some of our data, knowing that we've only really had
quality attendance recordkeeping for this year, since our current office
manager took over that role in November/December.

The previous office manager did an excellent job at a lot of things, and is
one of our shining stories of how Indy Hall has enabled people to find and
follow their passions - As you'll see, record keeping just wasn't one of the
passions he found or followed. :)

Here is a chart to illustrate the difference. Mind you, our membership
headcount shows steadiness and growth through this entire rollercoaster,
this is only recorded daily attendance, summed month-by-month.
