Members of MVAR:
Well here we are starting another season 2025 of our great club. Happy New Year to each one of you and your Family member who
tolerates the Model Train aspect of your life. Around December 5 2024, I created a CHAT on Facebook which some members preferred not
to join Facebook which I certainly understand, to see just the feelings about a Club Website. Although the requirement was rather low it was
determined to carry on with one. So as your Webmaster, I have decided to pear down our former offering for this one. I never do receive any
insights from anyone as to what could be added for interest, so as they say “it is what it is”.
For a moment though, reflections from my Chat on Facebook has some good feedback. One which I would like to implement when it is done
by Simon Duggan is to add a link to a Facebook Page onto the Website so it is Official. I strongly feel this increases the exposure of MVAR
by thus providing choices on which platform a Member makes. This Facebook page will be run by Simon without any conflicts from Website.
Also mentioned was to have “Forums” on the Website. It is offered within my software which unfortunately is out dated. So what is your take
on this? Further idea by me is to have a Once a Month Coffee Club, which Day and Time (10am) to be determined at our pop up meetings
on Club Nights purpose to talk TRAINS. Note if member wishes breakfast it is their discretion to do so. Confirmation required but likely at
Gourmet on highway #7 under New Management. It is popular already after introduction on my Chat page recently.
