      • Potential leaders?
      • Ground rules?
        • Members have to rotate diverse regional representation
        • Texas has nominations committee
    • Sometime too inclusive
    • Large percentage of new members
    • Value of membership
      • Value of Portal
      • Meaning of being a member

      • Non-member is less committed
