We have recently done a clean-up of our membership database. I have
\n been very pleased with the returns in the last two weeks, especially with
\n verifying membership details. Many duplicated membership have been
\n removed.<\/p>\n
The latest count is 5,250 live individual members. Out of this total,
\n about 2,300 members read the club’s forum regularly. So, we
\ncan see there is a difference between those who read the club
\n forum, those who are inactive members and those who are regular
\n participants.<\/p>\n
One of our weakness is our inability to chat and interact with those who are
\n members, but are inactive, for different reasons. Very few active
\n members volunteer or raise their hands to befriend this silent group. I
\ndo not know why.<\/p>\n
However, I am glad to see members like Jassmine Teo, Frisna Tan and YatSing
\n put in effort to voice out for this silent group. Joy Chuang is also
\n looking after a group. Some of us may think there is not much we can do,
\n for those who are busy, shy and afraid to join the more senior and active
\nones. But, if you can do a little, this will be go a long way to
\nwelcome the quieter ones.<\/p>\n
Our EOs for different activities have done a good job maintaining their
\n activities.<\/p>\n
So, again, if you are a member, have been participating in SHC
\n activities, and have not been an EO, please consider doing your part to be a
\n Befriender. You only need to take care of 10 – 20 members. I
\n hope to see you raise your hand.<\/p>\n
