January Meeting Announcement



I have a request and I hope its not too crazy.  As you know from earlier emails today, I had already started drafting the text for this month's promotional email announcement which also would have gone in/onto a letter or postcard until we were pleasantly surprised by the newsletter in our mail boxes.  Well, even though the newsletter arrived, I still needed to finish the text for the email announcement and I decided to continue playing with the letter format for "future" uses.  We were at the Aquarium today and I got some great pictures, so I even inserted one of them into the letter.  There are also a couple VERY IMPORTANT details about where we are meeting and not arriving late that I didn't have when I sent the info to Erika.  (I just got them from Becky Quimby when I talked to her today.)
 
So, how would the board feel about my going ahead and sending the letter out tomorrow to further promote this month's meeting?
 
I'd even be willing to pay for the postage if you feel that the double-hit would be too much.
 
Below is the text for your review (whether you approve my request to send it in a letter, or whether we end up using it for the email announcement only).
 
Thanks,
 
Rick
 
 
 
 
Members and Friends of the Greater Seattle Aquarium Society are in for a real treat this month as we hold our regular meeting downstairs in the actual Seattle Aquarium and tour their Facility.  That?s right!  Come be our guest as we receive a special ?Behind-the-Scenes? Tour hi-lighting the water treatment system, food preparation kitchen, laboratories, and breeding and grow-out tanks.  The tour will finish just in time for us to watch the mammal feeding which is always very interesting.  Then, we have until 10:00pm to self-tour the exhibits (bring a camera and get some great shots!).
 
Here?s the agenda
 
7:00 ? 7:30pm    Arrive early and gather DOWNSTAIRS by the main entrance
7:30 - 7:45pm*   Welcome, Announcements, Quick business
7:45 - 8:30pm    Behind-the-Scenes Tour
8:30 ~ 9:00pm    Watch the feeding of the mammals
9:00 ? 10:00pm   Self-Tour the exhibits
 
* Very Important Note ? Please plan to arrive EARLY, but no later than 7:45pm.  Once we begin the tour (at 7:45 sharp) there will no longer be anyone at the entrance to let you in. 
 
Also, if you or your children have not yet submitted your entries for last month?s coloring contest, please bring them to the meeting.
 
See you there!
