Those of us attending the Cyamus conference at the Hatfield Marine Science Center were awoken this morning before 5 am and evacuated in anticipation of a possible tsunami. Most of us drove 5 miles inland and are waiting it out at the Toledo Fire Station. We are hoping to be able to return to Hatfield at 10 am once the danger has passed.

It is that time of year….. Please check the Membership database. If you have disappeared it is because your membership renewal has not been received. This also means that you will not be able to use the resource sharing services.
If your payment has been sent you may need to confirm with Kristen Metzger that your bank has supplied sufficient information.
Paying for multiple years saves time and money if you have this option.
Membership Committee.
I wish you health, happiness, peace and joy during the holiday season and for 2011.
Happy Christmas
