Congrats on the corporate backing! I might have to get my brain cells engaged and see if I can't come up with more! Sure would be nice to find a site where the meetings could be held everytime! Umm... sumptin ta chew on...

I had a customer come in this afternoon and he is thinking about switching his tropical tank to peacocks. He will have some fish to get rid of so I told him to come to the meeting and he would meet some people that might help him out. It's going to be a great meeting

Wow thats pretty sweet deal there. Both Ursula and Mark.

I forgot to mention I can handle tables/chairs if needed for the meet. I have it worked out that I can switch with somebody for work. So if you need me to bring some tables or folding chairs let me know.

folding chairs will be appreciated.

How many you want Ursula?

at least 5 if you have them. (up to 10)

I can get my hands on 256 exactly....not that i want to lol. Ill bring 10 and just let me know if you would like to up the amount.

It was my intention to donate 4 chairs.. not needed anymore? No blem either way! Haven't a clue as to the number of attendee's I'll finally get to meet!.. Any head count yet?
If you're counting.. I'll be nr. 1... LOL

I could be up for hosting a chapter meeting in the future based upon a few conditions.. the most important one is that NO ONE critiques my tanks! I'm not sure of the number of attendees I could handle though... My tank room (only 3 so far, with nr 3 going up tomorrow and nr 4 a couple of days after.. (Remember, I bought my 1st tank on Feb 5 of this year)..

Yes we still need your chairs as the first meeting we had 19 people.

Will deliver 4 chairs! But I'd like someone to take at least one each home with them for future meetings!

Just checked my schedule and I can go! I get off work at 1pm and it should be a quick drive there!

Looks like a nice croud showing up! Do we have a list of all members coming?

Not yet as tons of fliers have been given out.

My sister and I are very interested in coming, she's new to the hobby and I just got back into it after a few sad years away. What should we bring?

Um... your passion for our fishy friends? This will be my first meeting also can't offer too much in the way of advice! Me? I'm bringing a cheeze/sausage dip and chips!

This will be my first meeting as well. Just bring yourselves Im sure that will be enough. Of course you can bring your fish entusiasm with you.

Ok guys, I got my schedule and I'm off! :)

anyone want to bring sodas or juices?

I can help with that. What kind of soda/juice you wanting to have? Ill set up in the corner with the liquor in case anybody needs there drinks spiked

Good anything you want to bring is fine.

paper plates, napkins, and ideas on where you would like the chapter to go. This will be our first official meeting besides the meet and greet and hope to build according to our members wants and needs.

Ill pick up a couple 12 packs of coke/pepsi and see about getting them cold.

perfect
