Hello Pete:

Yes I would join an FTE Connecticut chapter.

Is the proposed Connecticut chapter going to be a sub-set of the New England chapter as Massachusetts and New Hampshire are?

Yes. I believe it would be. I haven't looked into the official stuff. I just know that I need 5 people who are interested. Once I get that I'll contact someone up the line. Right now we've got 2 people interested.

Pete, I hope you make your goal of creating a CT Chapter..

I just searched the member list for People from CT and it looks like there are plenty of active CT members..

https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/m...astvisit&pp=50


This is sorted by recent visit..

I would try PMing a few to make them aware of what you are doing..

Many members only go to 1 or 2 specific forums and may miss this announcement..

Good luck

I went to the memberlist and had it give me a list of everyone in CT. From there I sent a PM to everyone whose activity was today or yesterday that had over 100 posts.

Lookin good, guys! Hopefully we can get just a few more guys. And would anyone want the job of Chapter Leader? I haven't been around for 60 days so I couldn't do it.

Hey Paul...why not use this as a thread to guage interest...you already have 3 definites...you only need 2 more. If you PM George...glruff...he can retitle the thread and monitor it for compliance.

George is a Regional Moderator...he was instrumental in helping us establish the Massachusetts Chapter. He will work closely with you to help you fulfill your goals!!!

I sent a PM to everyone and asked them to post here if they were interested so that's pretty much what I'm already doing.

By the way: It's Pete. Not Paul.
