I remember the boys and girls club. I only make it to 1 meeting a year at max. I don't think that makes me a good member. ;-) I also live far from most of the events, living around 7th Ave between Northern and Dunlap. But I think that I miss meetings because I have to many other things on the plate including a wife that likes spending time with me.
