This is the way it used to be and what we miss: The club's representative would deliver that week's announcement to The Daily Sun for insertion in Thursday's paper explaining what was happening. Here is an example from 2019:
"Iris Folding-The group meets 9-11:10 am, the second and fourth Fridays of each month at Colony Cottage Recreation Center. All are welcome. Come and create unique paper art in a relaxed, fun atmosphere while completing two projects. For a supply list and information, email ____ _________at ______________.com"
So the club listings were quite informative. However, as the year went on, someone, district.gov? complained about the considerable expense of publishing the Bulletin. Although they started severely limiting the number of words in the listings, the listings still could contain a description of the club's purpose and workings. Then the pandemic pretty much halted club activities and the need for a big bulletin. When it was restored, the information was limited to what it is now.
I would think that an on-line edition with comprehensive descriptions of clubs that want to advertise would fill the void and lessen the frustration of having to run all over TV to check them out..
