Went to attend my first meeting last night & ended up sitting outside in the car because the gates to the lions den were not opened. Sat there for approx 45 minutes and there was only 4-5 other people there standing outside. Gates still remained locked so I assumed the meeting was cancelled and I left.

Surely this isn't the standard of the regular ADA meetings?
I mean it wouldn't be worth the hiring of a hall for a single carload of people. So I am guessing something has happened recently to turn members away? or had I missed something altogether?

No disrespect, but I was expecting to meet alot of nice people, learn some great info etc and was pretty dissapointed with the turnout (well lack of a turnout anyway).

Can anyone inform me of the situation as I would like to give it another go next month if it is worth attending.
