To increase membership, has TFG ever thought about approaching trade schools? They're called "community colleges" in these parts.
Posting brochures on bulletin boards in campus centers might be a start...or what about being a guest speaker at an engineering or software / CAD class?
Perhaps history classes at the university level would be interested in speakers? TTRAG?
The first barrier, however, to those interested in joining us, would no doubt be the membership fee. I know the Guild has "student rates" but maybe we could give them the option of paying in installments, too?
I'm willing to act as a go-between in setting up things at schools in this area.
