| July Membership Meeting 7-22-18 | |
| By: Angela Fore Date: June 10, 2018, 6:15 pm | |
| --------------------------------------------------------- | |
| Please join your chicken family for this month's educational | |
| meeting on 7-22-18 at the Jon Archer Center, 1070 Schillinger | |
| Road North, Mobile, AL 36608. The meeting will run from 3:00 to | |
| 4:30pm. We request that you begin arriving around 2:30 for | |
| fellowship and refreshments. | |
| Our July meeting topic will be one of great interest to so many | |
| of our members. We are so thrilled to have local snake expert | |
| Mike Casper speaking to our club on the identification, safety, | |
| venom, benefits and myth busting around local snake species. | |
| Mike has been immersed in the field of Ophiology (the study of | |
| snakes) for 35 years and is currently serving as the Vice | |
| President of REACH (Reptile Education Awareness Conservation and | |
| Husbandry). He is somewhat of a legend in the local snake and | |
| reptile community and we feel very fortunate that he has agreed | |
| to spend his Sunday afternoon educating our members. *** In | |
| order for Mike to give the best presentation possible he has | |
| requested that we allow him a full 90 minutes to present his | |
| information. We wanted you to know this ahead of time so that | |
| you may plan accordingly. | |
| As with every meeting, we will be giving away door prizes but as | |
| a special treat this month we will be having an opportunity for | |
| you to own a beautiful vintage Kenneth Jay Lane Serpent Watch | |
| valued at 85.00. Tickets will be 1.00 each and the watch will be | |
| given away at the end of Mike�s presentation. Be on the lookout | |
| for photos on the Club FB page. We had some terrific suggestions | |
| deposited in our Suggestion Box over the past few months so | |
| please keep them coming. You will find the Suggestion Box near | |
| the Registration Table so please be thinking about ways you | |
| would like to see MBABYCC improve. This is your chicken club and | |
| we want your input!! | |
| Your meeting homework is 1) Put the meeting on your schedule and | |
| come join us on 7-22. 2) Think about what suggestions you would | |
| like to offer to make MBABYCC even better. 3) Decide what | |
| delicious refreshment creation you are going to share. | |
| Our monthly meetings are for those who are paid members of | |
| MBABYCC. If you are not a paid member, we would love for you | |
| join our chicken family! The dues are 20.00 a year and that | |
| covers all family members living in your home. For your | |
| investment of 20.00 you can attend monthly educational meetings, | |
| two picnics a year, a Christmas party and other MBABYCC events. | |
| Margaret Pinter, Hospitality Chairwoman, and her team will be on | |
| hand to check in club members and have membership applications | |
| available for anyone wanting to join at the meeting. She will | |
| gladly answer any questions you may have and will help you join | |
| us if you choose to do so. | |
| Looking forward to seeing everyone on 7-22! | |
| Angela Fore | |
| President, MBABYCC | |
