I wish I could attend more of the Saturday meetings, but my other "hobby" tends to get in the way. Actually, two other hobbies, travelling and my work at TMS. I choose to let both of those have priority over attending the Saturday events.
That being said, I think Kristen pretty well covered the different areas that might impact attendance. People and their interests change over time and other obligations get in the way.
The real challenge is to encourage newbies to attend and when they do make them feel welcome and part of the group.
I'll do my best to be there for the December meeting.
