Our chapter [Roosterville] is a good chapter now, how ever, it use to be pretty boring. We now have CFI's,A&P's, IA's, builders and they are active with 50% or more at meetings they are serious about EAA's image. It takes involvement and you need to express your individual interest to promote dialog in the group. I agree, there is a lot of social activities to promote aviation and that is good and necessary because that is the only way the public has any contact with our interest.
