Like any group you will have ups and downs in attendance. I don't care if someone is 18 or 88. I can make new friends and hope to be able to enjoy the best of the person not the age. If your group attendance is dropping, ask the members why? Is it because of time restraints? Is it because of the GTG location(s)? Or as one person said about the Dragon last fall "They did not feel welcomed". (I have a hard time with that since the same one was my first and I now have some GREAT friends across the country)
I have started carrying my card with some information for our group. If I see another Crossfire and I am able to leave the card or speak to the person I do. I also belong to a Classic Cadillac group and they have nothing and I mean nothing on this group. Most are older and rather aloof since they spend absolute fortunes on their cars and seldom drive them over 45 mph. This group has fun... we drive fast when we can and really appreciate what we have in our little babies(except the cup holders). A good part of this group use ours as daily drivers and still work so GTG's are sometimes hard to attend.
Don't give up!! And remember no matter, Never judge a book by the cover!

Have a Great Day and keep it under 90....
+1 to all the above.
Here in central/southern Alabama, we do not have any 'official' group or GTG's.
I however have made many new friends due to my Crossfire roadster including :
maxcichon, zip439, blacksrt-6, cjw and gfalcone.
