THANK YOU

[beareef19]

I would like to say a big Thank you to Jim Norris for having the meeting at his house, and for being so gratious with all the frags that he gave everyone. It's people like Jim that will make our club a success. Just remember it is better to give than receive, because if you give you will always receive much more.

Thank you Jim - you always go way far & beyond! Just hoping your tank doesn't look too bare tonight. It was a great turnout - great also to meet so many new members. Also....thanks Jim for opening your beautiful home to all of us again. And the raffle stuff was great as usual. Awesome meeting!

[Triggerman]

have to agree jim's a stand up guy, he's all about educating anyone and everyone who wants to listen we need more people like this in the hobby. thanks for the hundreds of dollars you saved everyone with all those frags you gave out. whatch out chris i think jim was starting an early campaign for president at the next election. although i would've gave up my frags for a couple of slices of that gino's pizza.

Mr Vice President Sir,
It was an honor to hold the bags for you. Thanks for the show and tell and many thanks for the frags as well as the setup of things in the garage. It was cool to see a SCWD in operation after talking to one of the guys at the company about it. It does what they claim it does. Your coral tank is an awesome tank!

Jim, thank you again for being such a great host and helping us all out so much with our tanks. I appreciate all the help that you have given us all.

Thanks again,

Thanks Jim for a most educational and enjoyable Maast meeting. The new frag you gave me is doing great and the Clam is extending it's mantle nicely. A BIG Thank you!! The drive from SA was well worth it.

[TAXMAN]

Sorry I couldnt make the meeting. It sounds like it was fun. BUT. My wife was out af town and I had my 4 year old son with me all weekend. So we just hung out and played. I really wanted to meet you all in person, but I'm sure I'll get onother chance.

See you next time. And I was going to try and buy some frags later from Jim, but it sounds like he is all wiped out. :)

Later.

[shellback]

Thank you Jim for your hospitality you have a beautiful home and outstanding tank. :D What I saw this weekend was very impressive, while I have yet to recieve my tank the frags given to me will be a jump start to beautiful reef. To the ones who coordinated the meeting thank you the time you put into the set up of this meeting, it was well worth it. ;) Now,getting the frags back from the person babysetting for me will be a chore he said, he was locking the door. I am very happy to have officially joined MAAST this weekend. :-D

[GaryP]

I'de like to extend my thanks to Jim and all the other members that opened their homes to us. It was a great member. Now I just have to get to work on my tanks so that I'll be able to be as generous as Jim was with the frags.

I should have a bunch of Xenia elongata frags available to anyone that wants them at the next meeting. My 125 is a Xenia factoryand I'm almost to the point of throwing them away for lack of a decent retail outlet for them. I have to be careful or they have a tendency to overgrow my other critters. If anyone wants them, just bring a piece of rubble in exchange, I'm running out. I'd also like frags of other Xenia species, so if you have any that you can turn loose of let me know.

Just wanted to add a thanks for all those who helped put the meeting together (Misti, Chris, Ray, etc). As the group grows, it takes a bit more effort each time to organize. Also for RWilliams26 for organizing the tank tour. I see great things ahead for MAAST!

Thanks for the generosity Jim, and good to meet some of you.

[Jimnorris]

I want to THANK all you came to the meeting! I enjoyed sharing my home and tank with all! I had a blast.

I want to THANK all who helped, memebers, new members, future members, sponsors and donators. What a very special meeting!

I must confess this morning when I woke up man I was sore. The back of my legs and lower back I could hardy moved----who say fragging is easy? ;)

I hope everybody got something out of the meeting I know I did! :D

Thanks,
Jim

[OldSalty]

:-D :-D :-D Theres nothing more I can say but this, T H A N K Y O U

[Chris]

It was a great meeting! Pictures (http://www.maast.org/modules.php?set_albumName=album09&op=modload&name= gallery&file=index&include=view_album.php) have been added to the gallery.

When do we get access to our gallery for those of us that paid our dues at the last meeting?
