lets stop complaining about bod and corsa asnd figure out what to do about
the lack of new members which i have heard about since i joined in 1978!
whatever has been done in the past should stay there or we wouldn't have a
membership problem today. there is no sense to preach to current members,
those that have corvairs and don't want to join and etc. there might be a
slight chance with corvair owners that don't know about corsa (which i find
hard to believe as most of the vendors advertise it).
  what is need is new blood in the 20-30 age bracket as corsa needs to look
at where it's going to be in 10-20 years from now and not next year. having
a "closed convention" is not the way to accomplish this. maybe a guest at
the host hotel or a passerby is curious about the cars and wants to look
around. schedule a time in the x-cross runs and take those people for a
ride to show them that a corvair can be fun. jr's idea of a temporary badge
is a good one, making them join corsa is not. maybe sometime down the road
that person will buy a corvair and join corsa and maybe not but what is
there to lose! your asking people to buy a 50+ year old car when they can
go out and buy a "rice rocket" that will beat it in just about any standard
there is so corsa has to be able to offer something really special or
membership will slowly but surely continue to decline as we all get
