Any one getting a spike in their attendance at their meetings?

I didn't know if, it's cabin fever or what's been causing our bigger turnouts.

Anyone else see a larger turnout?

Yup.

and sure hope they stay around for the joy!

Always good to see you again Zing

I've noticed it also, I think it is the same reason the gyms have a larger attendance this time of year. So many put "Quit drinking" on their New Years resolution list.

Absolutely. The BB meeting I go to had bout 40 people in there last night.
