The first one worked out well, and having more of these will help the division keep up with what is on the minds of the members. The next town hall meeting should happen in the next few months. This is where the members and the division leadership can have a respectful conversation about new ideas and where the division is going. Usually the president and one other leadership member is there, although more could be there as well.
