This is a call for volunteers.
Do you have a few minutes that you can devote to helping grow this group?
One caveat. PLEASE, if you see that someone has already invited the person to join Massachusetts Patriots, don't add your invitation unless it's been more than a week since the previous invitation was posted.
How To Help:
1) Use the
Advanced Member Search to find people who have joined the Resistance from the state of Massachusetts.
2) On the search page, type one of the following into the "City, State" field:
- , Massachusetts
- , Mass
- , MA
The third choice will yield the largest result, but each of the other choices will yield a smaller, but different result.
3) Click on each member in the result and check if they are a member of Massachusetts Patriots. That will be in the left column under the heading [member's name] Groups. If there is no heading, it means they are not a member of any group.
4) Add a comment to their page asking them politely to join the the Massachusetts Patriots group.
Here is an example message, but you may personalize it any way you wish.
Welcome [name],
I see that you are from Massachusetts. So am I.
I've joined the
Massachusetts Patriots group to join with other Massachusettans who want to focus on how we can resist here in Massachusetts.
We'd love it if you were to join us.

Here's another version of the invitation.
Welcome [name],
You joined the Patriot Resistance to do something, right?
If you're here and not part of a group, you're like a ship passing in the night. Few people will ever connect with you and you'll miss the actions that we're taking.
As one Bay Stater to another, we need to get this state back on track. Don't you agree? We can only make this happen, if you're part of the team. Join the rest us in the
Massachusetts Patriots group.

One more tip. Notice that the phrase "Massachusetts Patriots" in my example is a link. This makes it really easy for anyone to click on it and get to this group.
You can include a link in the text that you paste in a comment by cutting and pasting this code into your message.
