of members. For instance it you were dealing with young
people and the age cutoff on a certain level was 12 years,
you could bring up all the 11-year-olds from last year

move them on mass to the 12-year-old group. You
would then have a chance to scroll through and edit the
list before the move was completed.

happens frequently in volunteer organizations.
