Club meetings

Are we going to have a meeting this month?

I've talked with a lot of people recently who wish they could make more meeting, but Monday nights aren't working. Is this just the people I've talked to or everyone? I think we talked about this a while ago, but I don't remember too many people commenting.

Would weekends work better?

I would also love to go on a tank tour. I have seen two reef tanks in peoples houses now. Each of them blew me away and gave me a million ideas. I think I missed out on ones tours that have happened in the past and would like to see what all these tanks are people are talking about in the threads.

Mondays are the best for me most of the time. Weekends are the hardest to make because I have so much going on then. A lot of people don't like mondays, but from what I remember, we can't really find another day that is convinient for everyone.
 
Sorry, I snoozed on the meeting post. It's third monday as usual.
I've been pushing for Saturday meetings for a long time, the problem is that all the regular attendees are the ones who can make it on monday. So when it comes up at a meeting it gets shot down.
If enough people clamor for it maybe a change would happen. I also think meeting at members houses would be a less formal arrangement and give everyone an opportunity to check out a new tank every month. A lot of people seem opposed to this idea though.
I suggest pleading your case to Ken & Marty. I'm officially moving to north jersey or possibly pa (by the delaware water gap), so I don't want to push any big changes if I'm leaving the club in a few months :(

Great point!

i would be able to make a lot more meetings if they were on a weekend. Im only 20min from Newark, but getting home, then going to a meeting at 7pm puts me back home around 8:30 9 o'clock. on a Monday night, i'm just not into it.

i think having meetings at peoples homes would be great. a minnie tank tour every month if you will. i also think this would help with presentations and discussions because theres at tank to look at, learn from and talk about
