Thank you for your feedback! It is very helpful to hear about the obstacles. I hesitate to send a broadcast email 'too often'. So, folks are not just deleting me as I come to their mailbox, lol. What might work better for you is the Yahoogroup, which has a calendar reminder built in. http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/ExploringHolisticAlternatives/
I've done MeetUp. I LOVE the online tool. However, it costs $150 per year. And I prefer to keep my costs to free and other's not having to fork over money, either. The Ning and Yahoo are both free. The Ning message board has more features and is more confusing, for many people. Yahoo is basic and more straightforward, ime.
I really like the reminders sent automatically also. They seem to be more consistent and in advance of the event, than when I do them manually. The Ning doesn't have a tool for that, unfortunately. And Yahoo doesn't have an RSVP tool.
I'll try to send out the notices more consistently in advance. The gatherings are on a regular schedule also, to help with planning, first Tuesday-MNO, third Wednesday-evening, fourth Sunday-afternoon.
Hope to see you out and about! Thanks again for the input. I'm glad I'm not drowning you in emails. (yet, lol)

"Thanks, lots of great ideas we can try. (I am a new member on the yahoo group as of last week.) We also read some information elsewhere about treating with arnica, do you have any experience with that? DH used arnica pellets on Sunday for muscle…"
"We had two recent discussions about poison ivy relief on the yahoogroup with many options to consider. Plantain, witch hazel and Epsom salt baths seem to offer significant relief.
