15 August 07 - 19:35Why Are GREAT's Numbers Up?
---Our membership now stands at 107; a 50% increase of where we finished the year in 2006.---Participation on our monthly canoe/kayak outings has twice set a new record,
with July having a whopping 65 paddlers!
---Donations are also up
The GREAT Board would like to know why. Is it better publicity through
our improved
web site, a better circulated brochure of our events, or more media
announcements; better weather, or better run events? Is it all of the
above or some combination?
You can help us. If you have an idea or an opinion, please enter a comment accordingly. Thanks! Jim one comment
The brochure at the Dahlem Center is what caught my attention. I glanced through it, and then put it back down. As I was leaving, I just happened to see it again, so I took it home to look over it more closely.
It was very nicely laid out and attractive. All of my immediate questions were answered by it, and it seemed too good to be true!! Canoeing for free?? What’s free these days??
I called to reserve a canoe and it’s been a wonderful experience ever since. The organization is first-rate, and very well-run. I have lived in Jackson for ten years and this was the first time I had heard about this organization.
In my opinion, the exposure is up becasue of the brochures around town. The membership is up because of the people in charge.
Nice job, and thank you for all your time and effort.
