[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by gregmc Hey Railguyho, how long ago was it when you tried to restart div 9? Lin Young and Dave Matheny began working on it this past summer. I know this has been attempted several times in the past and it still remains a daunting task. Most of the modelers in this area are not only uninterested in the NMRA, they seem anti-NMRA. As it stands, the NMRA has nothing to offer them. There are already two clubs in the Kanawha Valley which offer more than the NMRA can. What are some of the things others have done to reactivate and gain interest in their NMRA division? Greg McCartney [/quote] It has just been in the last three years. Lin Young knows Jim Hielmen well he is from Ripley WV.I might not be spelling Jims name correctly hielmelmen.If you get a chance give me an e-mail i would be interested in keeping up with your progress getting 9 going.Also the ap chair for div 6 Lin youngs div is the guy who had my golden spike in his file for over a year. so they should remember me.There are alot of people up in this end of the state who if you found away to bring them back togeather could make up a very good diy.The anti nmra feelings run deep here in this part of the state also,like i said give me a e mail i have a large club layout and would be willing to let you use it for a nmra day or something in this area,but you will need to find some new approaches to stir membership up here.Terry.
