I think it might be a cool presentation to have one of the fire investigators come talk to the club.

I think that would be a fantastic presentation even if they made it a short 15-20 minute presentation. How to set up the electrical equipment safely is something we all need to know. Maybe also have a small presentation on how GFCI outlets and Ground Probes work to go along with it. We could even do a hands on presentation where everyone could feel what it's like to be shocked by putting their hands in a tank with stray electricity. |

| Maybe it could be like a fish tank safety fair. Have a couple small presentations about safety. Wether it be electrical, flood, whatever. Be kinda interesting. |

 Connie,
Many of us get there just after 6:00 to set up chairs and get things ready, then we leave about 9:30 after cleaning up and taking down chairs - just to go to dinner and talk about fish for another couple of hours. Shorter meetings .... come on. 
I do like the safety fair idea. Consider it noted!

You obviously were not in the club prior to me being president. Jake and I were quite proud of the fact that we had shortened the meetings and were preventing them from being so long. Some of us remember the old days. Adam ------------- Come to a meeting, they�re fun! |

I think the topic sounds interesting but after growing up on a farm with electric fences, I'll pass on getting shocked. I've been there - done that.  ------------- Susan Matney Farmington, UT |

Connie, you need to go to the Freshwater club meetings. The last one I went to ran until 11:00. When they do their Auction it goes on all day long.
Susan, Come on, it will be nostalgic. |
