  31. “The Club Leadership Plan has been the life-saver of this Club. In many ways we were a dying club.” “Thank you for giving us the opportunity to embrace this new structure. It has given us the freedom to think outside the box and to re-energize the club by shaking it up and cleaning house.” “We have not had to go out looking for new members these past 6 months – they have come to us . (27) We have been able to concentrate on the health of the members – and membership has looked after itself.” “It is very obvious that this will continue forward. It is like a snowball – it took 6 months to get the program going and sailing smoothly – but now it has its own momentum.”
