2014 Board Of Directors Nominations

[Southern Flame]

Thank you I accept
I'd like to be on the BOD for a few reasons, I like meeting new people, learning new ways of maintaing/ building aquarium set ups ( as most know I purchased the 250 from ace so that build is gonna start when hubby gets back and has time) I enjoy writing up the newsletter with the help of MAAST members ( if not for y'all there would be no photos 😂) I love all fish and sea life and feel that between use trading amongst ourselves and purchasing corals that are fragged from captive systems we can help save the oceans reefs which are endangered from over harvesting, pollution, and other elements. I am a stay at home mom so this is a hobby the whole family enjoys as well as all who see it. It's amaZing to see photos or in person everyone's tanks and find out how they do things.
Not sure what else there is to say except I love being apart of this group of people.

-Ben-

Thanks so much for the nomination, Ben! Regretfully, I'd like to sit this one out. Between living in New Braunfels, having a hyper 2 year old boy and working weird and long hours at work, I'm not sure I'd be perform the duties at a high level. I really do appreciate the nomination, Ben! I hope that this may be something I could do in the future.

Well, I'd like to be on the BOD because honestly, maast is the best site I could have asked for when I started with my 10 gallon a few years back and I owe it to the forum for making me into the reefer and person I am today. I've met a ton a great people here and I'd love to be a part of continuing this forum for others.

Currently, I hold a moderator position and have had that position for several months.

Anyways, bio time! I've been in the hobby since 2010 when my physics teacher (technomex) gave me a pair of tomatoes for my 75 gallon fowlr, after returning from A&M Glaveston where I did one year of marine bio, I switched to physical therapy major at TX State as I was inspired by a family member who was paralyzed yet with PT learned to drive and live an almost normal life, and when I moved into my dorm my sophmore year I setup my 10 gallon! From there, I went to a 20 long, 40 breeder, and soon I'll be down to an 8 gallon ADA! Thanks for the nomination!

I think Shane is an amazing choice for BOD! Maybe one year I will step forward and put my app in for it but right when I believe I have experienced everything I learn something new here on Maast.
