[QUOTE="ewomack, post: 3288325, member: 15588"]I personally haven't had much luck with my local coin clubs, but that may have more to do with me than the clubs. :D My experience is that every club has an established membership base that more or less runs the club and it takes time and patience to become more involved and feel like you have a voice. I felt welcomed at first and then slowly ignored as time went on. Again, I'm open to the possibility that it's me, but the club appeared to have a very strong clique when I joined and I saw other new members struggling besides me. I did see some great talks, though. Those were definitely the highlight. But I had a hard time meeting people. So, if you run a coin club, here's my advice: be very welcoming to new members but keep them involved and interested as much as possible. Try not to establish an inner circle that is difficult to penetrate.[/QUOTE]
