Re: [GSAS-board] We have a speaker for March

Wow! That's great! This is the first airfare speaker we've had since Bob
left. Great job Paul. 

Usually we reimbursed the speakers in the past for airfare and one night's
lodging at a hotel. I think Steev is closest to the airport to pick them up.

Subject: [GSAS-board] We have a speaker for March

Board:

As per the email that just went out, Luis will speak at our club.  As this
is my first invited speaker from far away lands I would like guidance on how
to address the following issues:

* Airfare.  I am comfortable paying but should I make the reservations for
him or should we reimburse.

* Lodging.  I will forward his preference.

* Tour Guide.  A retired president has its advantage as Bob was able to show
speakers around prior to the meeting.  I can try and get the day off but I
would like to offer this opportunity here first.

* Misc.  Anything I am missing?

Thanks!
-Paul

>> I am president of Greater Seattle Aquarium Society and need a speaker for
our regular meeting on Tuesday, March 11th. As this meeting follows the
plant auction in February and precedes the general auction in April I would
like to invite a planted tank speaker. Recently the interest in plants has
increased within the membership as several members have assembled medium/hi
tech tanks (add CO2, forget ferts etc) so a talk on all the details in
sustaining a tank (setup/some aquascaping) would be appreciated.?
