    Question for the Rabble

    My wife and I joined our local clan society last year at the Reno Celtic Celebration, we also attended our first Burns Dinner this past January. I have now jumped in with both feet to the society by taking the position of Membership Chairman. I've been tasked with recruiting members, that said I would like to recruit younger college age people to build a base membership for the future. I have asked my college age daughter what would interest people her age to come and check out the society and possibly join. I was just wondering if the Rabble has any ideas?

    Beer, food, music festivals featuring Celtic-ROCK, like Dropkick Murphies, (not Lorena McKinnett-styled music), cool giveaways of a Celtic nature, whiskey tasting for your high-brow over 21s, Billy Connelly standup videos, the list goes on and on...

    Richrail, look no further than your signature line. Ben was right. Works every time.
    Oh, yeah, *** on all the other suggestions.

    Have a family-oriented Clan event. Let the other parents in the clan help to get their children interested.
