SaltGeeks May 2011 Meeting

SaltGeeks Monthly Meeting Madness
May 15, 2011
Events and Happenings at Marinelife's Place

Hello Saltgeeks!
As most of you know we had our May club meeting at Marinelife's home this month.
A lot of good changes the past year here at Saltgeeks and we hope to continue improving our club and what the club offers our supporting members as well as the members that have not yet taken the plunge and joined our knowledgeable and diverse community of saltwater enthusiasts. We here at Saltgeeks feel that, once you meet the people you are talking to on the forums and experience our meetings and our outings, you will feel more comfortable here in the quality of genuine friendship, experience, helpfulness and knowledge as you endeavor to create your own slice of the ocean in your home.
All of us at Saltgeeks would like to thank Eric and his wife Marie for their hard work and hospitality in making our fifth meeting of the year a huge success.
Once again, thank you for your hospitality.

Topics that were discussed at the meeting:
Group Trip:
We talked a few minutes about the upcoming trip to the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium and noted to everyone the time to be at the Zoo. Brian is verifying everything is still in order for the trip and well report back in the Zoo trip thread. You can see the thread here. This is going to be a great trip and a chance to learn what happens behind the scenes at a public Aquarium.

Huge Announcement was made:
SaltGeeks and The Staffords are please to announce a new Saltwater Store called Coral Cove coming soon to Englewood. We talked during the meeting about the store and requested from everyone information about what products everyone uses in their tanks. They plan to have coral frags, colonies, fish, a petting tank for the kids, and so much more. The Staffords would like to make sure they stock products everyone will use and need. You may also post your products here. For more information about the new store please go here.

We had a new member attend the meeting and becoming a Club Supporter, Kattz. We would like to thank you and all of our members for attending and being a part of our club. A big welcome to Kattz!

Many thanks to Marie for providing some great Food, snacks and drinks during the meet. Thanks to everyone else that contributed food and drinks.

In closing, I would like to thank everyone for attending another awesome SaltGeek’s meeting and to all that make our club what it has become over the past year. We have a great group here. Until next month….Happy Reefing!
