FLORIDA MUST ORGANIZE 67 COUNTIES!
WE DO NOT HAVE TIME FOR MISTAKES!
So, YOU get the benefit of MY mistakes from 12 years ago when I tried bring up 31 counties alone!
Man, did I make mistakes ~ Jim Costa
Your New and Improved Plan:

- Call me Jim. I am your coach here. If you fail it is because I failed to support you.
- Relax, it doesn’t require a lot of time. Feel free to volunteer to be the County Organizer if you have a full time job and a family.
- We will send you a list of Republic Members in your county. It will be in a spreadsheet so you can work with it. If you aren’t comfortable on them I will do the hard stuff for you.
- When you say “Do It”, I will email the Invitation Letter with your Contact information on it, cutting myself out of the loop. If you want I can stay in the loop a little longer.
- If they respond agreeing to be on the County Assembly, we will gather more information from them and let them do some preparation work, if they choose. But this is not necessary.
- In #5 above, we will ask for a picture of head shots so you all can begin to recognize each other. We may ask for them to search for a buddy to join with them, doubling your Assembly pool.
- We only need a minimum of 2 Assembly members, counting you as one. But it would be better if we have 13 members eventually, just in case.
Note that as word gets out about the Re-Inhabited Republics, you will be getting 1,000 members per day. - The Forum Chat room for your county members is now operational.
- When you are ready, you will need to secure a meeting room. This may be hard for some timid folks – you will have to lie. Call the local library or community center and book a free room under the name of “Your County Toastmasters Club”) for a Saturday.
Or you can rely on Zoom or Telegram electronic meetings and use Email – Voting Add-ons for secure voting. - We will help supply your Meeting Agenda. Just BS for 20 minutes, then call for a vote on whether to ??? to be inserted later???. The item being voted on will have been delivered to each member long before the meeting so they will be comfortable with it. I do not think anyone will have to sign anything. The minutes from the meeting is all that is needed. 10 is still a work in process.
- After this meeting the bulk of your work is done, unless you want to remain on as County Organizer for another month or so in case a second meeting is needed. But your replacement can easily be found from the Chat Room.
