Hi All.
This is mostly for those of you who are DBMA Group Leaders. I've posted a similar message on the member's Forum, but its important that it be on the Public Forum as well, so all can view it.
Before I say anything else, let me state that I've checked with Guro Crafty and Guro Lonely regarding the idea I am about to present here, and they agree its worth trying out.
As some of you know, the site I have developed (
dogbrothers.gr) is now at a satisfactory stage. Its primary purpose is to provide info on the Dog Brothers and DBMA to Greek-speakers, but its also in English.
Now then...whenever I attend a Gathering in Switzerland, I am amazed at the number of small DBMA training groups, who are relatively unknown in the 'States, but work hard and IMHO are worth getting to know.
So what I propose, is every few weeks, on the dogbrothers.gr site, I add an article with photos on
or
- a tribe member who may be training with a few friends/students
I propose starting with three such write-ups (at once), and then an additional one every three to six weeks.
I would also like to feature groups in the US, and elsewhere (to introduce the to European audiences), but at the beginning, there will be a focus on those about whom there is relatively little information.
The idea is to
- help the various US and European groups get to know one another a bit better
- give relatively unknown groups exposure in their own country
The last point, is done in the following way: I developed the dogbrothers.gr site so someone with a non-English browser, will see the Google translate bar at the top - allowing them to translate the English into their own language with one click. In this way, an article on a group in France or Slovenia, can be understood by people there.
I hope it will prove to be interesting and beneficial to all.
