The NMRA uses it's Rail Pass program to attract new members. As far as I know, no NMRA member has ever complained about it being 'unfair to other members." It only covers a new member for few months to introduce them to the NMRA.</div>

If you want to attract new members these days, it's a worthy experiment. The NMRA still has that program.</div>

At the general Membership meeting as I recall just before you entered at<br>
the back so you may have missed it. Rick had just reported on membership<br>
they ask for ideas<br>
I threw that out and Tim flatly refused it said we was not giving any kind<br>
of membership away it would not be fair to others members .<br>

When was this rejected? I do not recall hearing it brought to the board.<br>
<br>
If you look at page 3 of the last Arrow, I think you see something like this<br>
in there in my column.<br>

totally rejected it at the convention. I would like to start a guest<br>
membership program where a member can buy a guest membership for another<br>
person at cost for one year non-renewable non- voting. In hopes that the<br>
person likes it and renews as a member . How can that be wrong no cost to us<br>
what so ever.<br>
