First off, thanks for everyone who came to the January meeting! 
We had an amazing Raffle solely from LFS donations and member donations. Amazing - like I said at the meeting - this is by far the best number of raffle items we've had. Congratulations to all that were able to take something extra home.
I promised a few people I would provide the web addresses to some of the things I mentioned:
Auto-Top-Off Kit: www.aquahub.com
Head Loss Calc & Article: http://www.advancedaquarist.com/2007/5/aafeature2
However, my apologies for the meeting last night. The noise level due to the extra parties in the room made it rather obnoxious in my humble opinion (IMHO).
I did speak with the manager before the meeting as I foresaw this dilemma. In the future, he said he would provide us the entire middle room as long as their business isn't projected to exceed that requirement.
That being said, please keep an eye out for another venue that may work for us. Right now, I would like to point out Round Table is Free - but we pay for it in our food/beverage purchases. But any place else that charges us may require us to have insurance and we're just not yet ready to go to that level. So keep that in mind. Someone, forgive me as I don’t know who, is investigating the option of using the Chico Library off 1st Ave but there we would have to bring and cleanup our own food.
Next meeting, Feb 9, 7pm will be up at:
Paradise Round Table.
6038 Clark Rd # B
Paradise, CA 95969
There, they won’t reserve the room for us on Fridays â€"œ too busy. So if anyone wants to get there early and scare people away great!
