I think one of the things to work on is building/supporting university clubs...i'm trying to sort one out and the amount of interest from the (mainly male) students has been far greater than i expected...
students usually have a fair bit of spare time, are willing to spend a reasonable amount if they have a reason (eg alcohol
), are supposedly likely to come out with a higher wage afterwards and include many people interested in outdoors activities...
days like the newbie day at the Northern Quarter should also help a lot if we can drum up support for them, i'm trying to get a few people together to show them what tournament paintball is about and as long as you say "man-made bunkers, usually inflatable so they can be moved and taken down easily" rather than "inflatable air bunkers" which just gets people confused with bouncy castles they're usually pretty intrigued
