Committee Chair - Fish-o-the-Month

Hi Sandy,

Thank you so much for volunteering to help with the fish-o-the-month program. It’s really great to see so many of our members want to get involved! The Board met and unanimously approved you as chairperson.

I don’t believe this position has been “officially” filled in the recent past, so you may have some questions for which we won’t have immediate answers, but we tried to anticipate some of them at the last meeting.

In general there should be 4 bags containing 2-6 fish/bag (depending on the species)
Each month, the Board, in consideration of the meeting topic, will decide what kind(s) of fish to use as fish-o-the-month and establish a budget for that month. This information will be given to you, as the committee chair person.
If you are aware of someone in the club that keeps a particular kind of fish that has been requested by the Board, please feel free to solicit donations and/or buy fish from club members when the species is appropriate. One tool for communicating such a need is the members email list.

I do apologize for the late notice; my schedule has been pretty hectic lately with the new baby and her health problems – I would normally have taken care of these communications much earlier. However, I saw in an email from Bob that you weren’t going to be able to attend this month’s meeting anyway. I believe several people (current and former board members) have already made plans to cover this month.

Congratulations and Thanks!

Rick Rose, GSAS Secretary/Historian
