Re: [GSAS-board] Proposed Date(s) for GSAS Homeshow home visits.

["Seattle_Aquarist" <Seattle_Aquarist@comcast.net>]

Hi all,

I don't know if we have a consensus yet on a date/weekend for doing the GSAS
Homeshow member home visits/pictures/judging.  Memorial Day is Monday,
5/25/09.  The AKA Convention is in Portland the weekend of 5/22-5/25.

What are the feelings of the board for doing the Homeshow home visits,
pictures, and judging on the weekend of 5/30-5/31?  If we choose that
weekend, who is available to assist (since I have no clue as to what is
involved)!

Roy

I should bittorrent or YouTube the home show video from 2004, since "we 
have the technology" now.  Steev did a write-up on the thing that's very 
much in the fun spirit of how he does the newsletter now... it is still 
linked off the GSAS "home show page".  http://www.gsas.org/homeshow.html
