Join MMMC for a Frag Workshop on Sunday, January 26, 2014 at 3:00 to 5:30 at Preuss Pets in Lansing, Michigan. We will have the club's frag saw at the meeting for everyone to try if they'd like. The club will be providing several large colonies to practice fragging.
Attendees with a paid MMMC membership will be able to take the frags home with them!
The meeting is open to non-members as well. We'd love to have you join our club. If you join MMMC at the meeting, you can also take some frags home!
Membership dues are $12 for a year. All club members dues for 2014 are due at this meeting. (Members also get free admission to our swap on 2/16 as part of the membership.)
Bring your colonies to the meeting and we will help you frag them as well!
Another major topic we will be discussing at this meeting is the Michigan Coral Expo & Swap being held a couple weeks later on February 16, 2014. We need helpers to make sure the event runs smoothly. While we are cutting frags we will be addressing areas of need and asking that members sign up for specific jobs.
We are not going to be making the Reef Stew at this meeting, but may make a batch after the swap sometime. If you cannot make the meeting, but would like to join, you may certainly send me a PM here or email me @ JohnRScholten@comcast.net Our expectation is that our members will volunteer some time at the swap and still have plenty of time to do what they would like during the day. In return for the $12.00 annual fee our members have access to: The Club's Inland Saw, our Hanna phosphate instrument, our PAR instrument, reciprocity and free admission to all other club sponsored swaps, a bag of high quality reef stew each year and several nice coral frags. We also hold some events during the year other than the swap that vary from year to year.
In addition, after the recent ice storms and weather difficulties, our Board of Directors has decided to purchase a generator or two that will be available to our members during power outages and so on. We will be picking up the coral colonies for the fragging meeting Friday the 24th and will post some pics in this thread. I am looking forward to catching back up with all of you and meeting some new friends Sunday, January 26th (Plus you get to spend some time at Preuss!)
I've been contacted by several people interested in joining but cannot make the meeting. If you'd like to join, here is a button that you can use to become a member. I will work on a better system, but this should work for now. Be sure to include your contact info and forum username on the details in paypal so we know who you are.
The button will charge you $13...I'm passing the convenience of using paypal on to you. Their fee is roughly $1.00.
