I think the reason this has been so slow is that we have no movie to look forward to. Sure, the animated thing will be in theaters, but we have no awesome movie to look forward to. Think about it, if there were a movie coming out, it would only be a few months till it released. I don't know, I just think this is why it has slowed down here.
That certainly seems like one of the causes to why it is so slow.

I think Brian has a good idea. The Fan Force has pretty much run it's course. No one comes looking for groups in the area nowadays. When there were movies being made and Star Wars was hot, we had hits all the time. It has cooled once again and the ones who started it all are the ones who are left. In the past two years there have never been attendees at meetings in the double digits. To be a Fan Force we need to have monthly meetings. Why have the monthly meeting for members who don't show up? Why waste the effort? It's time to take the Mos Alba name and use it in a way to beter serve us. We can still get together. We can still see each other. We can still have Trooping events not associated with the 501st. Nothing will change but the Fan Force association. The Fan Force really doesn't give us any perks that we benefit from anyway. You might say, "But people can find us through the Fan Force." Well, no one has found us by looking through the Fan Force recently. No one comes to meeting saying, "I saw your group on Force.Net and decided to see what you are all about and brought all these cookies and a huge sack of money!" You get the point. Change is good, people.

I'm all for getting together in town which will be easier than out of town for most folks, (especially if you don't have 4-wheel drive for the Butte, but we could work out shuttle service if necessary at the lake.)
BUUTTTT,
the good news is that we are pre-approved for the boat loan, and purchase day is looking like 3/28/08 up near Denver!!!
I will most likely be taking the supercharger out and sending it to a guy to upgrade to metal clutch washers as the ceramic ones are known to break and cause you to throw a rod out the engine (and that ruins all the fun.) Then, when I figure out how to get it put back in, taking the boat down to the Butte to learn how to really drive this thing,(I've only driven inboards and outboards before, jet boats handle a little differently) before letting people know when to come down. Right now, I'm planning on being at the lake 2x/month through the summer. I'll try to post to let people know if they want to come down. The down side is this boat takes 91 octane gas, and gas prices are going up yet again:( Oh well, it's the price of my sanity and mental health welfare, right?
By the way, this is a small boat (4-seater) designed for fun. People will be taking turns to go out and play. I have a lot of life jackets and will be buying a few more good quality ski jackets for the water sports. I have a rule of wearing a life jacket at all times on my boat. I recommend that folks make their kids wear life jackets anywhere near the water. This is an absolute rule for my kids (if they don't follow it, they are grounded and have to stay in the camper.) This is how I grew up, and in my huge, extended family with these rules for the past 40 years, no one came close to drowning.

Hola, people! This is a very interesting topic. One that makes me go...hmm! Not sure how many times I've said this, but I wish that I was able to attend meetings...but cant because there always held on Sundays. I do like the quarterly suggestion.
