Hi all,
It was great to see so many folks show for the meeting yesterday. I think we are getting 2007 off to a great start! I'd like to go ahead and get the schedule for this years meetings going. We've got 10 that we need to schedule, and with ebay and ac being two of those, we have only 8 that we need to find hosts for. Based on how things worked at last nights meeting I'd like to propose the following schedule as a "flexible" blueprint for each meeting.
For a meeting that starts at 4PM (start time can vary):
4:00 - 4:30 -- People arrive, hang out, etc.
4:30 - 4:45 -- Introductions, club business.
4:45 - 5:15 -- "Topic" presentation and discussion for those who are interested. Those who are not interested in the topic can continue to hang out, look at the tanks, etc.
5:15 until -- ...
I think it worked well to have a round of intros. We can probably also get some name tags for people to wear for future meetings. Also, I would like to try and set a specific repeating time to have the meetings because that way people can plan ahead and may be able to get off of work if they know things will happen at a set time. I propose to have each meeting be on the second Saturday of each month. There may turn out to be a month or two where this will not work, but for the most part it could work.
So with all of that said, who would like to host a meet? Here are the available times. I'll go ahead and snag October.

? I'm assuming you have classes. I'm always amazed at how much energy kids have in classes. I can usually make it through kids and adult classes on the same night (not instructing, so I wear out faster), but they never slow down...
