Manx societies in the North America have thrived over the years, but they will only surive if more young members are encouraged to join.
Two Manx-born teenagers have started a Facebook Group to try and do just that.
Mim and Matthew Blower are hoping it will 'hook' third, fourth and fifth generation Manx descendants, who might otherwise let their associations slip.
Mim says most teenagers won't go to meetings of the North American Manx Association with their parents, but the Facebook group 'NAMA Youth' could change all that:
Noble's Emergency Department is 'safe' but 'too small by modern standards'
'Sounds for Sands' gig to raise money for stillbirth charity
One-way traffic reinstated at White Hoe
“Positive outcome” as Tynwald gives green light for detailed tramway reinstatement plans
