Hi @JanOski managing your online community is a little different to making one. I run Melbourne Local Guides and at times it is in the doldrums (like a couple of weeks ago), at other times its quite active (it is at the moment). Trying to engage the people in your community is the key and I'm happy to say I'm no expert in this as MLG is up and down like a yoyo.
Getting the members involved is important. Celebrate achievements. Have a good policy around behaviour. Hold meetups often to build real life connections.
Regards
Paul

Hello JanOski, please keep me in mind if you gonna organize community in Calgary. I live in Calgary as well and might be able to help. Cheers

How can I become the local Guide of my area and start the local guide community. There is no local guide community present in our area

Hi @Rameez there is a lot of great information on how to do it (and what you can and can't do) on this post by Traci https://www.localguidesconnect.com/t5/Using-the-Forums/Community-Moderator-101/td-p/88618
