text: I have already set up family friendly training and attempted a youth group. I set up training in many areas but most will not even participate. Last year set up a three day bugout where all you had was what’s in your bag nothing else. Everyone was excited and had thirty claiming they would attend. Well when the weekend of it rolled around only three showed up but only two stayed all three days. They learned a lot about survival while the others couldn’t be bothered. I have learned if it’s even a very minor inconvenience most will not put forth the effort. I have been trying for over a year to build a simple 6 man security team even have law enforcement willing to give training so all we do is legal. But like everything else no one shows up always have a half assed excuse
