[AGA-sc] Re: [AGA-conheads] Updated AGA 2006 Program / Budget proposals (fwd)



Awfully quiet here. Is anyone planning on saying anything about this "proposal"? I can't figure out if Jim is considering this "it" or not, and I haven't had more than a couple minutes to compose a reply, but this seems to me a far cry from Skidmore's "We will put together a quality bid."

Erik,

The program is in the lower part of the email, the budget attached  as a .xls. 
That's all I sent. Were you looking for the list of who is assigned to what ? I 
dont have that finalized yet, need to reconfirm a few things.

Jim.

Good Day !

1st I'd like to congratulate the AGA team on the recent opening of your Forum, 
and the AGA Aquascaping conpetition which is the best so far, very high quality 
of entries. Great job !

Please see below the updated program proposal. It is a lot less "busy" than the 
previous one. As usual, would appreciate feedback.

I have already incorporated feedback from the SFBAAPS AGA team for this 
proposal.

Please also find attached the Budget proposal. It is the 1st worksheet, the 
other worksheets are from 2004.

Jim.
