Follow these ideas to continue to build your community:

Regular Gatherings
Communities can be formed online in virtual forums, however the strongest communities have regular live and in person gatherings. These gatherings could be social, educational or project oriented. Decide what the gatherings will be and how often they will occur. You can have all different kinds of gatherings within the same community.

What kind of regular gatherings would you like to host?

Just for Fun Events
Consider hosting some activities that have nothing to do with the regular purpose of the group. This helps community members bond with each other. Would your community members be willing to do something that might make them a little uncomfortable, yet still fun? It doesn’t have to rock climbing or zip lining, but maybe a helicopter ride, a karaoke sing-off or watching a movie together would be a great way to have people get to know each other.

What kind of gatherings or just for fun events would you like to see in your community?

Community Service and Get Together with a Purpose
When your community members get together to do something for the greater good, or to help the less fortunate this will bond your community members. Serve lunch at a soup kitchen, visit a hospital, make cookies for the troops, all these types of activities strengthen your community while helping others and making everyone feel good.

What kind of community service activities would you like to see in your community?

Encourage Additional Getting Together
Once your whole community calendar is scheduled begin to suggest and support people in your community getting together for whatever reason they like with other members of the group. Usually this will only reinforce and even expand your community.

Add a Facebook Group
A Facebook group allows people to connect with each other, share resources and ideas and inspire each other between gatherings.
This group also serves to give people information that you have also sent via email that you want to make sure everyone saw. This group also facilitates everyone talking to everyone without you in the middle.

There are lots of ways to enhance your community by facilitating connection in the ways we have discussed above. Get busy enhancing yours. Check back next week for part four in the article series.
