The next BRS meeting will be held at the Bridgewater, MA., Vets Club, 85 Cottage, St. June 28th Saturday, 2008 from 11AM - 3 PM.
Joe Klein from Ushio will be giving our guest lecture on lighting requirements for coral reef aquaria. Ushio is a manufacturer of metal halide bulbs.
We will have the standard frag swap and general mayhem. The local sponsor Coral Reef Aquarium will have a table at the meeting, likely with dry goods and some live critters. See their forum for details:

New info:
Mauro from our BOD has agreed to give the novice reefkeepers lecture, complete with demos. He will be talking about auto-topoff devices and level control, etc.
Tentative schedule for the meeting (this schedule may change, check back to this thread for updates as we get closer to the day of the meeting):
11 - 12 PM - Meet and greet
Presentation set up time - new members registration - folks milling about chatting about their tanks - chance to meet and chat with the guest speaker - time to purchase BRS coffee mugs, hats, polo shirts - library book signout and return - turn samples in for water testing - chance to pick up 2008 BRS calenders, etc. More about these club benefits can be read here:
