Planning Meeting Minutes by Lin Creel Newsletter Several members are still having problems receiving the newsletter electronically, more than likely because of its large file size, incorrect email addresses, or because members are not on the current email address list. In the near future, Ben will compare the FOS to the PBCRRT roster. If you are currently not receiving the electronic version of the newsletter, please email dalthoff@co.palm-beach.fl.us If you prefer to receive the newsletter in the mail, please give Ben your address. Newsletter in Color? Dawn has done a wonderful job on the newsletter creating a colorful and attractive publication that could be distributed to local dive shops. However, the team cannot afford to print the newsletter in color. Biv Watson has volunteerd to contact local businesses such as Office Depot, Kinkos, and other graphic design businesses who may be able to donate the cost of copying the newsletter in color. Fundraisers Needed The team is always in search of divers interested in fundraising activities. The current ‘grants coordinator’ position, may be more appropriately titled ‘fundraising coordinator’ in the near future. The team is searching for an individual willing to participate in local fundraising efforts in the community. Cassandra Weith recently initiated the effort, but a member willing to commit time on a regular basis is needed. O2 Training Bob Johnson from the Rampage may be willing to provide O2 training after January 2002, details available shortly. Royal Park Bridge The team has not currently established official fish stations on the Royal Park Bridge. Pug is currently working on a skeletal map of the site, which will provide information to determine appropriate fish identification stations. There were several suggestions on how to establish the stations including: 1) a sweep of the site by the fish identification specialists 2) study the variation of fish assemblages in different areas of the site. |
