Since the November Meeting thread has strayed a bit from topic...
Greetings,
The November meeting is this upcoming Friday at 7pm. This time we have the room at the Round Table off of Pillsbury Rd, Chico reserved! I would like to thank Kane who was able to provide the friendly email reminder to be timelier - You all who are members of CRC web page, should have recieved a new reminder. Further, if anyone is having trouble with their username/password for that site – please email webmaster@chicoreefclub.com or use the ‘contact’ link on the website’s main page. Kane has requested people do this and he'll help you out as soon as he can.
Several items need to be discussed at this meeting and I’ll address them here.
1) Introductions, name, who you are, aliases online, your current tank description and one thing else (you decide) – I’ll provide a cheat sheet
2) Elections: Our bylaws state elections will be held in December of every odd year. That would be next month. I am proposing since we are new and just starting up that the current officers continue on understanding that their term will go to December 2009 – we can vote on this first. Then, if an officer wants out we can hold an election for that upcoming vacant position at next month.
3) Non-Profit Status: I assume everyone has had a chance to review the pros and cons for forming a non-profit corporation for the club. Further, the time to actually acquire said status can take a long time. I am going to request Dan speak about this and highlight the pros and cons of this move. Then we can open the floor for discussion about whether the club wishes to pursue this route.
4) Event: I would like to introduce a new opportunity to generate some revenue for the club. I would like to form a subcommittee to pursue this opportunity.
5) Event: I would like to solicit any reef-related event information like upcoming frag swaps, etc.
6) Presentation: Due to the confusion from the venue shift last weekend, I am unable to recall if anyone was requested to present on mushrooms or something else for this meeting or not. If so, please let me know.
7) Presentation: DIY by me. I plan to do an overview of different DIY projects I am aware of – some of which I have completed myself.
8) General member Q&A discussion:
9) End of meeting:
a. Select a tank to view after December meeting
b. Next meeting presentation concept and presenter
c. Instead of a raffle, we’re going over to Joel’s to auction off his livestock. More details to follow. Check either RC above or CRC web page for details about what is available.
Finally, I would like the officers to gather to decide the date/time of the next officer’s meeting.
