Bring plants for "show and tell"

 

Meeting:

The meeting this month is a social gathering, with finger food.  There is a requirement by the college not to server meals – so we are required to make the potluck dishes of the finger food variety.  Please bring plates and silverware, beverages will be provided.  Those that can arrive as early as 1:00 pm are free to do so.  There will be NO auction.

Room Change!

The October 1st, 2000 meeting will be held in meeting in Room 1510 on October 1st, November 5th, and December 3rd.  It is accessed from the north side of the building.  They referred to it as the Tower entrance.  (It is the main parking lot before where we went last month.  We do NOT go around to the east side of the building.)

 

If construction remains on schedule, we will be back in Room 9310 in the Technology Applications Center in January 2001.

 

Coconut Bark

The club discussed the possibility of purchasing a compressed bale of coconut “bark”.  The bales yield 7 cu ft.  The group agreed to buy a bale, and divide it.  If you have special interest in this John Talpa can provide information.
