Next Meeting?

I'm up for a meeting. I don't work the weekend of the 2nd/3rd, or the 16th/17th
But, if its after 5 pm, and I can make it there at 5 pm from work-lol

I have a test tank, I want to find out if its possible to drill, if its tempered, we could find out why we don't drilled tempered tanks, if its not, we can find out how to drill a tank ;)
 
Sunday the 3rd would be tricky for me. I have to go pick up my older kids from their dads at 3:30 but maybe I could put that off a bit. How early could we start? We'd be home from church by 11:00 and I can start on the food right away.

I was thinking of making fry bread tacos. Would anyone want to bring a topping? I'd make the fry bread, seasoned hamburger and dessert if others could bring some taco type toppings (lettuce, cheese, tomato, onion, sour cream, etc.) and their own beverage.

Goingpostal - I really would like to replace that mushroom! I'd be mighty happy if you had one to spare. I'll have to let you know before the meeting if I'm comfortable putting new stuff in my tank yet. Let me know if James decides to frag that toadstool! : )

Reef Crzy - You know how to make yourself welcome at a meeting don't you? I'm sure any frags you have would find a happy caretaker. Let us know what you have.

Swanwillow - I'm sure Garrett would be willing to help drill your tank. He did a demo at the last meeting. Too bad you missed it.

Schaver - Thanks. I'll let her know and try to PM you again with her info.

WE HAVE TO TAKE PICS AT THIS MEETING!!
 
ahh, crud, already demo'ed oh well.

if its the 3rd, as early as you'd like. I have to pick up my oldest too, but thats not until 7 pm. I wish I had something I could bring other than food-like frags. Oh well, someday.
 
So, what's the scoop??

Garrett. I can hold onto your frags for as long as you need. I would rush it and chance loosing anything. The frogs are doing great, as well as the other stuff. We can discuss my babysitting fee (a frag most likely) later. I'll bring the Koralia 4 with me to the meeting.

Learning. My dad says you will be in school the rest of your life, so get used to it!!!

We can always extend the meet date into March. We should try and make it at a time when we can get the maximum amount of people since we are so scattered.

As far as a group order, are there any plans?? I have purchased a few used kits here and there but need Alk and Mag now. If you need something on the order, please PM me ASAP!!!
 
My vote is to go for Feb 3rd. I'll work out the family details. As I mentioned in an earlier post, there are some members trying to set up new tanks and I think it would benefit them to have one in Feb and then again in April. I didn't see anyone mention that they couldn't come on the 3rd. If so, speak up soon! :)

I started a new thread to investigate the group buy notion.
 
maybe we can put up a notice at pet zone, and maybe other places to get interest, ya know. Invite them onto HERE first, to invite them out or something of the sort.
 
I thought that too and worked on it before our first meeting. I gave a notice to FF. They didn't put it up. I put one up at PZ and Rick took it down. I talked to him about it later and I could tell he was uncomfortable with the idea. He doesn't see what he'd have to gain from it. I can sorta see his point and I'm not willing to promise him orders before I know how much of a deal he could give us. I do try to give him business when I can because he's a good guy but figured that may not be the best way to advertise our club after all. Our club is growing beyond what I had first imagined already! YAY US! It's just that we're a little spread out but, hey, it's MN!!

We should invite Brett Cooper again though. I never heard back from him but maybe just one more invite. It would be so cool if he'd host! I'd have to bring a tissue for the drool!
 
I talked to Brett on the phone last night and he would be interested in attending, I told him I would give him a call when we got a time and date figured out.

As Far as the meeting goes The 2nd would work for me.I can bring the Chips and salsa again if you all want it....LOL

I can drill some glass to it is no biggie.

Just let me know if the 2nd will work so I can let Brett know.

Cammie -did you ever ask that guy at FF if he would be intrested in comming to a meeting?

Well I just found out I will not be able to make it on the 2nd we have a tourney that day. But I can make it on the 3rd???? if I can't make it I will just catch the next one.

Maybe we can start a new thread and the dates that will work for everyone??

I say if you expect something in return for posting a local club meeting, then you are an a$$!! And one heck of a business man. Screw them!! I won't EVER buy from that store!! That really peeves me off!!

A friend in Florida posted club notices at his store without any expectations. Sure, he wants business, but he didn't put our club notices in the trash.
 
Actually, I like Rick at PZ. He's just not going to be our ideal supplier and/or sponsor. He wasn't rude about it. I still plan to give him as much business as I can.

As for the guy from FF, no, I haven't even been in there in ages to be able to ask him. I've been less and less impressed with him as time goes on to be honest. If I see him I'll ask tho.

Thanks for asking Brett. VERY COOL!!!
 
To be clear about my statement. Both stores in Bemidji should allow us to post a notice of our reef club meeting. Regardless of potential sales. I wouldn't ask either place to offer our club anything in return. I would ask that they allow postings.

No matter. In a month or so, a new, customer oriented store, will be opening in Thief River Falls. They will allow reef club postings.
 
yeah, I've been in FF quite often-if you had gone in there ANY day in Sept, Oct, and saw the big red and blue bird-it was more or less likely I was the one holding it, shes home with me now. (love her to pieces-it was love at first bite) And I THINK I know who your talking about, he ran off with part of my payment for my birdie-my set of PC lights (not that I CARE, but hey, its funny!) I think he quit, since Cheri gave me $90 store credit to my bird for them, and he ran away with them.
