Greetings from the President, October 2024

Hello Aqua Tutus,
Thanks to those who attended the Members Night presentation earlier this month at Round Table Pizza in Castro Valley. A special thanks to all who shared their images and provided the rest of us entertainment, inspiration, and fond memories.
In November, our guest will be the long awaited, Natasha Benjamin and her presentation on the collapse of the kelp forests along the Pacific's eastern coastline. I'm sure it will be a sobering, shocking, sad presentation, but I also hope it will be informative and inspiring.
Also in November, we'll vote for next year's club president, vice-president, membership chair, secretary, and treasurer. I'll open nominations just before the voting, but if no one new steps forwards, the current officers will continue for another year. If you're curious about the constitution and bylaws or officer responsibilities, see Constitution and Bylaws or Board of Directors, Elected Member & Volunteer Coordinator Duties.
If you're planning to attend the club's annual holiday party at La Cabana restaurant in Newark on Saturday, December 14, and you haven't sent your RSVP, please do so at Aqua Tutus Christmas Party - 12/14/2024.
Finally, if you've tried to create a new message thread in one of the club's Forums, but don't see the "Create New Thread", it's probably because you haven't signed up as a member of that particular forum. Any club member can read messages on the club forums, but only club members who join a forum through the "My Forum Memberships" button on the Forums page can post to that forum. If you want to experiment with forum threads, visit the "Test" forum at Forums. The Test forum is a great place to learn and make mistakes in.
As always, hoping to see everyone at the next club general meeting.
Warmly,
Jim Driggers
Club president
