CALL MEETING TO ORDER:

I.
A. SECRETARY TO READ MINUTES FROM PREVIOUS OFFICIAL BOD MEETING
1. OLD BUSINESS

During our Q3 Board meeting, it was decided that we would not be holding a winter swap. Our friends over at Unlimited Color Corals already are holding a winter Beer and Frags event and I don’t think it’s right that we encroach on their event.

During our Q3 Board meeting, Justin was nominated to represent MAAST in Neptunes Marine Aquarist Hobbyist of the Year contest and he won!

In September we Announced that 100% of our dues from September until the BOD meeting in October would go to our charter members who were affected by Harvey. Jonathon Cumpian and Minh were affected and we raised $200

We will work with them to find how best to assist them with these funds.

II. Quarterly financial Update
Quarterly Budget= $1300
Budgeted Spent - $600
Club Expenditures +$700

Our expenditure this quarter was approx. $700 under budget. Our large expenditures included the BBQ & Frags meeting at Mikes for August which had about 100 dollars spent in food based on our RSVP’s and 300 dollars in prizes. A large portion of this was covered by Algae Barn through their $175 sponsorship donation.
