Here's the first question that needs to be answered on the bid. After each question I've put my answer, per the meeting, PLEASE put in as many suggestions as possible. This gives us the best opportunity to have the best worded bid in the end. In the paperwork it says to NOT answer any question briefly and to go into as much detail as possible.
How many members in your club? If it is a mixed club, how many are marine members?
The Marine Aquarium Society of Colorado is a close group of hobbyists who have come together to share experiences, and learn about the animals that are in our care. We currently have 1,825 registered users and boast 450 active users. Not only do we offer membership through paid dues, but we also have an attendance based membership that excites our membership just that much more to attend our monthly meeting. The majority of our club is dedicated to saltwater, while still having some dedicated members in the freshwater and planted arenas. We have grown immensely over the past 5 years by more than doubling our active community, as well as having had exposure through articles in Reef Hobbyist Magazine, Reef Addicts, and Reefbuilders, as well as having many notarized speakers attend various meetings through our history. Our continued success is due to our great membership!!
