[GSAS-board] Feb Prez

[Paul Wallace <pwallace@u.washington.edu>]

I would like to thank everyone for a great season so far.  The talks have been 
excellent (as usual) and we have a lot more planned.  Thanks to the efforts of 
Erik, our taped talks are more accessible that ever with DVD copies in the 
library and convenient downloads.  If the small auction after Ganzafarâs 
amazing talk is any sign, the February plant (and livestock) auction will be 
spectacular!
Speaking of auctions, we have a slightly different room just down the hall and 
start a little early.  The February 10th plant auction starts with 
registration/viewing at 6 pm with the auction at 7:00 sharp.  Members get a 60% 
split and are suggested to bring a maximum of 20 lots that are either plants or 
livestock (fish/invertebrates).  We need volunteers to setup, bag plants, and 
break down so please let me know if you are able.  The April 18th general 
auction is moved to a SATURDAY to allow more lots and be accessible to members 
unable to attend the regular Tuesday night meetings.
We have secured two big speakers for the rest of the year with Lawrence Kent 
detailing his travels in Africa for March and Tom Murdock representing our 
local streams and waters in May.  The club also has a number of side activities 
like the West Seattle salmon release as covered by our own Jack Lawless 
sometime in May!
