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!

Those that want to buy Tickets to MCMAC can paypal on my account as long as you state its for MCMAC with proper ticket price.    You paypal me @ esmzhahn@clearwire.net.   and state tickets for MCMAC, How many and if single or family ticket.   We sold two last night from Portland that way.   I was not expecting it, they just sent me payment cause they knew me.

I would like to handle my purchase this way but 'm not that familiar with the whole PAYPAL thing so if someone can detail it out for us, it may help with proceeding with this form of payment.

As soon as I get details, I will purchase my tickets.

Barbie, when are we getting together at your place to do the Friday night social salads?

Nacho and Rick are going to take care of the other important stuff for the social. (Protein and liquids) if you know what I mean

Just so everyone knows, Friday night will be catered by the members of the club and Saturday the members get catered by the Red Lion.

I'm looking forward to this and I hope all of you out there that would like to know what we are about can join us for an educational and entertaining event.  Everyone is WELCOME and we are sure you won't regret it.

Any questions, feel free to post them and someone is sure to answer them.

Thanks, Carmen (MCSAC Secretary)

Who all is coming over to make salads?  Do we have any idea what the target number of servings might be?

I think we should shoot for Wednesday or Thursday.  We don't want to serve old salads, now do we?  ;-)

Let me know what works for ya'll and we'll get it rolling!

[btrue]

I plan to take the day off on Friday so will come whatever time you set up on Thurs, too   
I have 2 large bowls, too! Greg & I also plan to help Stacy on Sat AM at the Red Lion.

I'm off on Thursday and Friday so I'm dedicating that time to do whatever needs attention and whatever we can get ahead on.  Friday morning salads is as fresh as it can get, don't you think?  I will be there on Thursday to help set up as well so if you're working just let me know what I can do and I will have no problem putting a little elbow grease on things.

I would say prep for 75.  I'm going to inquire on getting corn on the cob from one of my farm connections ( I think there will be some ready)

Thanks!

Barbie- I will bring your big bowl to you Mon or Tues so you have it for your salads   

[Lucy]

With as much set up as we have to do on Friday, I would rather do it on Thursdsay afternoon.  I plan to take Thursday and Friday off, so anyone who can join me on Thursday is more than welcome.  Maybe shoot for noon on Thursday.

Now for the question of supplies?  Are we asking for club members to donate the ingredients for the salads? I can't remember what we decided.

Also, any great recipes for salads?  I can't even remember what type of salads we decided on.  Boy, aren't I clueless? 

I know we had mentioned doing a fruit salad then decided against because it might turn brown too fast, but I have some ideas where we can make it work.  I also think a potato salad is a must.  Any others?  Are we going to try for a dessert?  Is there any other food prep that needs to be done?

Getting close . . .

I don't have a Costco membership anymore but they have REALLY GOOD cake!  SOMEONE could just buy 2 of those, easy!!! All of us could help split the cost?!

I will buy 4 containers of cookies from Yokes;  they are good.
I will also bring a 5 lb bag of potatoes, celery & onions to make 2 potato salads.  You'll need eggs and mayo, pickles?

I hope I remember to bring my 2 big bowls.

I have a First Aid Class w/ my employees on Thurs AM til noonish so I'll come over around 1 pm. I don't have any other ideas for salads...

Should I try to drop off the potatoes early so you can start cooking them?
-Sandi

[ReefJunkie]

I have not been able to offer any help because I'm always working but I would be more than happy to buy the 2 Costco cakes.

[nacheetah]

I will cover the eggs, Mayo & Pickles. I have a couple of farm connections that are willing to try to find some early sweet corn, more potatoes, and onions for the grill.

We are going to have a volunteer meeting on Tuesday at 6:30 PM at Rick & Barbie's and we would like all of those that plan to help with all the prep work for the conference to show up so we can finalize all the details.

If you need the address, please post and we would gladly give you directions.

It is not too late to purchase your tickets, so if you plan on attending, please let Stacie our Treasurer know so she can do a will call and you can pay at the door since there isn't much time left to do it via mail.

We NEED to turn in a head count Tuesday morning, so please let us know if you would like to attend so we can get your name on the list.

See the MCMAC 2009 Page on the top left for contact information.

HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!
