I've reported previously on the encouraging growth of our Melbourne Traditionalists group over the past two years. We've been fortunate to bump up a notch in numbers each year, and each step forward in numbers gives a greater sense of the group's potential.
Hopefully there will be further growth in 2020. If you are sympathetic to traditionalist ideas (as put forward at this site or at the Melbourne Traditionalists site), I'd encourage you to get in touch about attending one of our gatherings.
There are no formal membership requirements at this stage and it's common for people who come along to express relief at having found a milieu in which they can freely discuss politics. Most of those involved are on the younger side, but we have a range of ages in attendance.
I look forward to seeing some of you at a future gathering!
Are you by any chance aware of any similar groups in Adelaide?
ReplyDeleteNo, sorry. I've met individuals from Adelaide but I'm not aware of any groups.
DeleteCongrats Mark. I've watched you build this for years and it's good to see it pay off.
ReplyDeleteDo you have any plans to formalize membership or set up branches outside Melbourne?
Thanks Lucas. We don't need to formalize membership yet. We're at a stage in which people active in the group are setting up "wider activity" groups, some recreational, some academic, some religious. I think this is a necessary stage to go through, as it brings people together on a more regular basis. We still need to grow a bit more to develop this further. If we had, say, 20 more people I'd relax a bit and think it was all systems go.
