I have been in my guild for over 20 years. We have a membership of over 400 people. Active ones- probably 150. We have a day and a night meeting, except for twice a year we only meet at night for a Christmas party and when the board changes over. We have a couple of national speakers a year, just last week David Taylor was here -WOW!- is all I can say about him. Go see him if you get a chance. Our members do a few meetings, we have one a year where we have 6-8 tables set up with members showing how to's. Sometimes we have grant recipients come back and tell us what they have done with the money we gave them.We always have vendors, door prizes, show and share, along with our meeting. We have a quilt show every other year. We have classes most months from the speakers, Heartwarmers meet every month (charity quilts), and I know I am leaving out stuff. There also lots of small groups that meet in homes. There were times I didn't attend regularly, but I have enjoyed my self most when I was involved, especially with the quilt show.
