Here is a letter that was sent to the club. Just thought some of you (especially those familiar with MASNA) would be interested.

Adam Blundell, President
Wasatch Marine Aquarium Society
Mr. Blundell:
While reviewing the program for the Marine Ornamentals '04 conference I noticed at least three names of people that I recognized to be aquarium hobbyists on the speaker list. Your name was one of them. I especially appreciated the topic of your talk: "Today's Hobbyists Tomorrow's Scientist". It is my personal belief that one of the best ways to insure our hobby's health and longevity is by the involvement of the hobbyist community with the educational, scientific, and reef ecology communities.
On behalf of MASNA and myself personally, I would like to thank you for taking the time and expense to attend and speak at the conference. Your involvement speaks well of both yourself and the Wasatch Marine Aquarium Society. It is my most earnest wish that MASNA will have a long and beneficial relationship with you and Wasatch Marine Aquarium Society for many years to come.
Sincerely:
W. Lee Morey, II
Vice President
Marine Aquarium Societies of North Americav
