# Membership Participation

During the January 4th meeting of NESQLUG, a discussion of participation in the group developed. All agreed that it takes a lot of work to get the meetings set up and the newsletter put together. However, there was a feeling, and I rightly believe so, that some members of the group are pulling more than their share and are receiving less than full cooperation in some endeavors from other members.
