Same here in St Louis they want the sale notices and that's all. Not
interested in attending meetings and really don't care to give them a try.
Peoples time I guess is to valuable to be spent at an iris meeting. I made
the suggestion we as a local club have a chatroom set up for gardners to come
in and visit us. I would like to see at least two club members be present so
the people can ask questions and hopefully through this we could pick up a
few members. What else can we do? Hogtie them I guess.
