Cluster Group Management

Following is a list of hints to help with meeting ideas and managing cluster groups. These tips have come from participants in the program.

  • Use a phone tree to inform people about upcoming meetings
  • Hold working bees to help each other complete activities
  • Have each meeting at a different group members house
  • Share the cluster group leader role between members of the group
  • Buy signs for the chemical shed in bulk to save on costs
  • Organise concrete for base of the chemical shed to be poured on group members properties on the same day to save on costs
  • Travel to each others existing chemical storage areas to share ideas
  • Each group member contribute a certain amount of money to cover the costs of a BBQ/ meal
  • Send an SMS/ text message to remind group members of an upcoming meeting
