gogators Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Michael, My office in tualatin has a small/med size conference room that could accommodate approx. 30 people. Depending on the date and time, we might be able to host. We also have a projector and screen if he has a computer type presentation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barelycuda Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Michael, My office in tualatin has a small/med size conference room that could accommodate approx. 30 people. Depending on the date and time, we might be able to host. We also have a projector and screen if he has a computer type presentation. This might work. It may be a little small but Jake will need a projector for his talk. Jakes talk will be on LED lighting. His talk is one of the best in the industry and if anyone wants to know more about them or has any questions Jake is the person to talk to. If anyone is not familiar with Jake Adams just do a google search on him. He runs the reefbuilders site, I believe he works with Bob Fenner on wetwebmedia and speaks at venues and meetings all over the country. It will be great to have him here.

markdadof2 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Another option (which the club has used for one meeting in the past) is the Nature Park Interpretive Center in Beaverton. A few years ago we had a speaker a this location and it worked out great: http://www.thprd.org/facilities/naturepark/rentals.cfm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimberlee Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 my apartment is a nice size and my furniture is still in storage for the rest of the month, leaving a lot of space for folding chairs and people. I'm at 2728 Landcaster drive se salem. I could also provide refreshments, and would have no quelms about showing off the set up I kept when i moved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePremiumAquarium Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Salem would be awesome! Then everyone can come check out the new shop in town as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markvo Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Tualatin sounds good and is much closer to the majority of members than Salem. Garrett or someone else can volunteer to have a monthly meeting in Salem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mohaynow Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Salem would be cool, makes it easier for a lot of people that usually have to drive to portland for this sort of thing. And it cuts the drive in half for eugene folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald525 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 I'm staying out of the Portland versus Eugene vs Salem argument as I can't even go. My 2 cents is right now with such short notice is finding the best venue that will work and can get the most attendance. The club is paying airfare and Steve Weast is kindly agreeing to pay hotel and pick up Jake at the airport. It would be a real shame have such a great speaker and have a poor turnout. I do agree that there should be more meetings in Salem , Eugene area but in fairness but we can address that at another time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgrcrain Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Was there already a date posted? I would have to say Tualatin is just about as central as it gets in this group. Eugene is pretty far out, but so is Castlerock and Longview (where the Prez lives). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
