"We," the MMM Club actually have models for visitors to fly and let them do
 so to get them to feel the fun. I give a lot of models to visitors for
them to play with...the P-24's and such. They are cheap and fun to fly too.
 The club actually encourages it and it will be a while until I run out of
those red plastic prop assemblies. It's a good way to get rid of all that
obsolete rubber.
 
Seeing a "real" indoor model gives them something to aspire to also.
Maybe a "novice, no BOM event" using flyer donated models might be a good idea
at each flying event? It's not like it will send anyone to the poor house
either.

New ideas are important. But we should also keep our "bird in the hand".
 For example, a great way to see if eliminating BOM will boost
participation is to create a new event that doesn't have the BOM rule. Process of
natural selection. Good if wins, fine if it doesn't.
