Re: [Aroid-l] Final Reminder: US West Coast Aroid Meeting!

From: Dan Levin <levin at pixar.com> on 2009.03.10 at 20:17:53(19182) Preamble: We had our first meeting at the UC Botanical Garden at Berkeley Sunday afternoon. It was great fun and hopefully the start of something even greater, as we all agreed to keep things going & reconvene later this year. Photos of the event (thanks to Albert Huntington) as well as future announcements of group meetings can be found at http://www.aroid.org/westcoast/ HTML +More On Mar 7, 2009, at 9:36 AM, cyndikrall@aol.com wrote: Can I join without coming to the meetings? Cyndi A few people have asked me this question, so in an effort to clarify: Of course, we're absolutely happy to include all who wish on our mailing list! But please know our underlying goal here is simply to gather people from around our region (or anyone wishing to attend, for that matter) who either have or should have an interest in aroids, and to orchestrate getting them all together a few times/ year. In order to keep things sustainable and realistic, this group will almost certainly be more informal than not. Which is to say we currently have no plans to collect dues or publish our own newsletter or any such thing and, as it stands, our mailing list will be a one-way (non-forum) channel used for announcing when and where the next gatherings will be, etc. If anything, I'm personally hoping our efforts will only add to the subscribers and posts on this great forum as well as helping grow both the membership of, and contributions of knowledge to, the IAS. -Dan -----Original Message----- From: Dan Levin To: Discussion of aroids Sent: Thu, 5 Mar 2009 11:51 pm Subject: [Aroid-l] Final Reminder: US West Coast Aroid Meeting!
