Thanks Steve for sharing info concerning the one day affair in St. Louis at
Mo-Bot. Could we possibly get a random survey of who was in attendance? E
ven though more than a few members could not be there to enjoy the program
and the personal 'aroid related discussions' for one reason or another w
e were there in spirit and supported the I.A.S. efforts.

Dear Zach:

Thank you for the information you have accumulated regarding
the participants of our 2nd MidAmerican Aroid Conference. We will try
to continue to get information about the individuals in the picture and
share that information if we find more details. I have cut out your
list and put it into a Word document and filed it with the other
Conference information. Do you yet have a List of Conference Attendees?
If so please send it to me.

Tom

Zach, I wanted to thank you personally for all your efforts to putthis together. I know that every board member is grateful as wellsince it is one of our priorities to make chapters an important part ofthe IAS so we can increase our membership as well as helpmembers find others in their area with whom they can share theirinterest in aroids.

For those of you that don't know, Zach volunteered more than one yearago to accept responsibility for organizing the MidAmerica Chapter. Hehas communicated with Carla, Dr. Croat, Albert and myself on a veryregular basis treating this project as if it was a business. We hadcharts all away through the process and knew exactly where thepotential meeting stood months in advance. He sent many emails topossible attendees inviting them to participate as well as postednotices on almost every known plant discussion forum. Without Zach'sefforts the meeting is likely to have not been nearly as successful.

We encourage all our members to consider forming a chapter in your areaand will gladly offer assistance. For those of you not aware, there isinterest in North Florida, the Northeastern US, the UK and Australia informing a chapter so please post your interest here or send it to oneof the board members if you need help. Our membership is on an upwardsgrowth trend with a 20% increase in the past year and we want to keepit that way!

My thanks to all who attended the meeting in St. Louis but a specialthanks to Carla, Emily, Tom and all the MOBOT staff members that madean effort to make this meeting the success it was. I enjoyed meetingall of you! With Zach's guidance we will be starting work on the nextmeeting shortly and hope even more of you will plan to attend!

Thanks again Zach! Stellar job.

Steve

I too want to say that I very much appreciated Zach's organizational
skills in making the 2nd MidAmerican Aroid Conference a success. I hope
that we can continue to maintain contact with the new people who showed
up by copying them on important details involving aroids and the IAS. I
was surprised to learn that there were people even locally that were
interested in Araceae and I will do my best to keep them informed of our
work. I want to thank Steve Marak, Steve Lucas and Joep Moonen for
responding so well to my request that they present lectures. All did a
good job.

Tom
