January LARK Meeting

[carym]

Well it's that time again, here are some possible dates for the January meeting. Vote for the time date that works best for you. If you have a preference for time just post that as a comment, we can start pretty much anytime and go until any time.

Awesome I am actually going to make it this time. Any one want to drive with me I am coming from Holmen, WI. Anytime works for me! Thank you

I voted for ANY of the weekends other than the 26th/27th as I've said before I wouldn't be able to attend due to a wedding.

If it ends up being any of them other than that weekend it will be good to meet ya Isaiah

I should start looking at what I might have available as far as fragging (probably wont be much this time as I'm pretty much where I'd like to be)

Don't worry about the poll ending date I messed up and it is really suppose to be the 13th, I have sent a message to one of the mods to see if they can change it.

[pogodzib]

FYI - I'm a mod for the LARK forum so I can change anything in any of the threads in the LARK forum area, EXCEPT for the poll end time. Go figure. Who did you send the PM to and did you get a response yet?

[carym]

I sent it to tims and he said he took care of it, but I haven't seen the change yet.

[pogodzib]

The dates been updated now.

[Isaiah]

I can do either the 19th or 20th!!! Thank you

New info that may change date of meeting. The MARS club is having their frag swap on 01.27.07 @ 1-3pm. See below from their site:

Frag Swap 4.0! - January 27th, 2008
The frag swap will be held Sunday, January 27th from 1-3 pm at the warehouse of Silver Stone Construction. The location is 3432 County Rd N # B, Cottage Grove, WI just off highway 12/14. The swap will open at 11 am for swapper and vendor setup. From 12-1 pm, swappers will have a chance to trade with other swappers, check out what's available from vendors etc. At 1 pm the swap will open to all and run for two hours (1-3). At 3 pm we will have a beginner's fragging demo and propagation workshop with some of the resulting frags being given away at the end (yay!). We are again going to ask for a $5 donation from swappers (families/friends being dragged along are free but the entry gets you the door prize ticket) to again split towards reef conservation, securing a space next year/renting tables and supporting the MARS website. There will be some nice door prizes (we are still looking for folks to volunteer to contact vendors on our behalf, check out this thread to see where/who we have already asked).

Vendors and swappers should contact me either via email (meisenhandler at gmail dot com) or private message on the forum to reserve space (hobbyists are free, vendors are asked to donate a reasonable door prize to the swap as an entry fee). There will be a limited number of tables and spaces though if we know you are coming, we can look into renting more tables. If you need electricity at your space, please plan on bringing an extension cord and power strip if needed. We are not currently planning on having salt water available.

More information can be found on the MARS Forum.

Thank you, look forward to seeing everyone!

Just an FYI - Right now we are leaning toward the 19th or 20th, I forgot I have something else going on the 26th or 27th but that was a little more flexible, now maybe a trip to Madison on the 27th, so....

[schneijt]

Dang! I'm going to be in Tennessee the weekend of the MARS frag swap. ****! That's a really fun time with HUGE numbers of great frags for sale. So I would suggest that anyone who can possibly go to the MARS frag swap do it; it's well worth the time/money/drive! I'm hoping we do our meeting the previous weekend, but that's just me. :-)

I think the 20th in the afternoon would work for me...Sunday afternoons are usually better. If there is a strong feeling, I could be easily pushed to another date. You guys were very willing to change the date of an earlier meeting, so I'm happy to adjust if possible!
Isaiah, give me a call/email and we can drive together if date/timing works out. How are your new lights?

[Isaiah]

matt, I will call you and we can drive together, lights are great, but what isnt better than what I had, I really enjoy the LED lunar light and the fish have never swimmed more!!! I just placed some shroom corals today. talk to you later.
