MCMAC 2009 CONFERENCE

Beau is hosting the January Meeting this coming Saturday the 14th at 6PM.  It will be BYOB as well as a snack to share and raffle items are always welcome.  It has been requested that there be “NO SHOES” on the carpet due to it being a whitish color.

He doesn’t have a tank to view but we will have plenty to discuss in hopes that it will get the NEW YEAR off to a good start.  The annual membership fees are due, so now would be a good time to get them in to our Treasurer Stacey Hahn.   Fees are $20 per individual or $25 per family

Attendance was low at the election meeting in November and no votes were taken at December’s meeting so we have decided to take votes for anyone that didn’t get the opportunity in November and will be attending this meeting.  
We will add the votes to November’s ballots and the announcement will be made during the meeting so we can go forward.
NOMINATIONS:
President:  Jim & Nacho
V. President: Ed, Bo & Daniel Leigey
Treasurer: Stacey
Secretary: Carmen & Angie

Let’s hope the New Year brings new members, returning members and new ideas.  The club is always willing to take suggestions to get the most out of the hobby we all enjoy.

Please PM Nate C. by clicking here for directions if you are not a club member.  

Club members can click here to go to the club member only forum to get directions.

Hope to see you all there!

Has anyone gotten this info out on the other boards?  Reef Frontiers for sure should be notified, and Reef Central wouldn't be a bad idea either.

Nate,
   Almost all the board in PSAS will be here.    I am sure Paul will be here too. 
I am bummed you guys are not going to make it because of important plans.    You both will definitely be missed by many.

Thanks for allowing this.   We do need to get the website up.   Give me a shout out if you do want pix of your tank taken.     Lots of people are wondering around looking for information on this.   

I look forward to this each time.   We share information with people all over.  As you remember even some good people from Hawaii.   Todd will be here again, he says.    Its our chance to build that bridge with other hobbyist.   I am very much looking forward to this.

Hey Paul,

When are we going to get a paypal button? 

[nacheetah]

Paul (PSA) is going to be our spokesperson for KONA and will be doing it Friday morning.  I want to say THANKS because he stepped up at the last minute.  

I know many of you were willing to do it, but the timing wasn't right and I didn't want to lose the opportunity of going on air and sharing information about our club and conference.  The sooner we can get the advertisement out there, the better.

He will be talking about who we are as a club and about our upcoming conference.  So STAY TUNED and see if you can catch our ad.

I also wanted to say thanks to Rick & Barbie for communicating back and forth to come up with bullet points on things to talk about.

Paul, relax, take a deep breath, count to ten and run with it.  Good Luck!

 

[Ed]

Paul,
    I look forward to hearing you.   I just like the part where as many clubs meet at one place centrally located to share a great Hobby!  Thank you very much for stepping up to the plate.

I've added the contents of the first post to the MCMAC 2009 page

The radio station will let Paul know when the recording will be aired, so once we know then we will let you know to STAY TUNED.
