<VV> new members

[Robert Harvey]

  I think we need new members or in a very few years there will be 
very few restored vairs,No CORSA and  no resources !!!
  How do we get new people interested in our beloved autos?
  I think we need to show our Corvairs more, get local chapters to 
show off their cars and encourage younger persons to come to 
meetings. I (for one) don't feel you have to be a member of CORSA to 
attend a meeting. There are persons out there who won't join any 
organization....
  I did support  my nearest local chapter (in New Mexico) for awhile 
but considering it meets once a month 250 miles from here I came to 
the conclusion that they were too far away to visit. My nearest local 
chapter was/is in El Paso but they seem to be out of existance.
  So I am my local Corsa chapter,one member but I keep trying to 
recruit new members ... and find parts for others .
  I am 55 and I am recruiting my 13 year old to replace me when the 
time comes but if we don't get some new blood in to our group , we 
will cease to be. I have noticed there are car guys out there who 
know all types of cars and love many different ones . We can get them 
involved but if limit our membership we are in trouble. I suggested 
at one time we might want to see about working with some V W air 
cooled organization . I now suggest a Chevrolet car connection ,there 
must be one out there we could co exist with. I suggest we think 
about it, We still have time!
