A great guild will have fundraisers to have workshops and programs from many different instructors. Lots of challenges and projects for members to choose which ones appeals to them to be part of. The board members will decide the running of the guild, no voting what to do by members which will cause bad feelings. No one is Boss, a President will keep the meeting flowing smoothly. Dues should be high enough from members to cover the basic expenses. A good website or Facebook guild page to read the newsletter and see pictures of Show and Tell from each meeting. I have left several guilds due to cheapskates, computer phobias, and tired programs. The guild I am in now is perfect for me. Over 100 members and everyone gets along!
