Nathan (Drywater) and Joanne have graciously invited us to their HOME for this meeting. It’s located in Hawthorne, CA not far from the 405 Fwy and 105 Fwy crossing. They will send you the address upon sending an RSVP.

Send your RSVP via a PM through the ChameleonForums (PM Link: https://www.chameleonforums.com/private.php?do=newpm&u=4647).

Nathan would really appreciate the RSVP so he’ll have an idea of how much food to make ready for the BBQ! Also, let him know if you’re bringing anything to add to the munchies like salads, chips, drinks, desserts etc.

ADDRESS SUPPLIED UPON RSVP TO NATHAN!

The "South Bay Chameleon Keepers" (SBCK) meetings are normally held on the last Tuesday of the month from 7:30 pm to 9:30 pm (but this time it’s Saturday, May 1st starting at 5:30pm). These free-of-charge meetings are pretty much free-flowing, with all chameleon topics open for discussion. "Show and Tell" discussions are common. We continue to have group bulk-buys (silkworms, hornworms, superworms, crickets, dubias etc.) at our meetings. Some members may be bringing these feeders to sell but that's not guaranteed. Let us know if you are looking for these feeders (or anything else) and we'll try to confirm availability (pre-ordering) before the meeting. Some keepers bring their chameleon books and magazines along with other various items to spark discussions. We also won’t stop you from bringing your chameleons, young and old, big and small. Just keep in mind that it is past their bedtime and that there is stress involved in the trip. So if you plan on bringing chameleons either for “Show and Tell” or for sale (pre-arranged sales are encouraged) just keep in mind your chameleon’s well-being J.

On your way and got lost? For this meeting, call Dave Weldon on his cell phone# 310-600-4793.

Our group ranges from long-time breeders to novice keepers to people who are thinking about getting a chameleon for the first time. Lately, there have been 15-25+ members attending. There are usually new members at every meeting.

See You There,

SBCK

(NOTE)
The www.chameleonforums.com has added a "Social Group" area that our SBCK members can associate themselves with by requesting an "Invite" (https://www.chameleonforums.com/groups/south-bay-chameleon-keepers.html). Our purpose for having the SBCK Group area on this Forum is to help SBCK members to keep track of who & how to contact other SBCK members. The term "Member" is used loosely to mean anyone who attends the free meetings. If you have no intention of ever attending any of the face-to-face meetings there is no benefit to being listed in the SBCK Social Group area and you will likely not be "Added" or kept in that list . This SBCK group area is not intended to replace the main Forum. Use the regular Forum area for all posts. Use the SBCK Social Group area as a means of locating other SBCK members to send PMs etc. Continue to use the latest monthly "Meeting Invite" posting as a place to post to the SBCK members that are also "ChameleonForums" members. There are still a few SBCK group members that are not yet Forum members but continue to receive their notices via the [email protected] emails. It also appears that, for the moment, Junior Member status on the ChameleonForums does not yet have enough "Permission Level" to join a Social Group.
 
Howdy All,

I'll be offline until Friday, the night before the meeting, so if anyone has questions about the upcoming meeting, just post them here and someone from the group will probably be able to answer :).
 
The bug ordering sheet has gone out to those on the email list. If you didn't get a copy of it PM me your email address and I'll email it to ya directly.

It looks like we can get the full menu. So order away! lol

If you need stuff from LLL, contact me first. I am planning to pick up the bugs on Friday night and LLL will be closed by that hour. BUT if for some reason I can't go Friday night I will go in the morning before the meeting and can stop by LLL. So again, just PM or email me if you think you're gonna need stuff from them.
 
Life series

I set the entire LIFE series to record and one of the ones they did was about reptiles with alot of awsome high def shots of chams, probably about 15-20 mins of the 1hr show, so that will be available for viewing.

If anyone that is coming has a lawn chair or two sitting around, you might want to bring it with you, although there is always the ground for those that don't care...

Nathan
 
Also a reminder, I mentioned above about getting the bugs on friday night. I need to get the bug orders in by friday mid-day. So the sooner I get order the better :eek:

Maybe we can get a roll call on food items Nathan?
 
Food RollCall - 4/27/10 @ 9:46A

Here's who we have so far bringing food
Dave - Various Desserts
Nicole Guy - Homemade Cheesecake (not sure what flavor yet)
Kevin - Undecided but willing to bring anything needed

I'll be getting a stack of burger patties from costco and a pack of hotdogs and probably a pack of polish sausage as well as all the related buns and standard toppings, mustard, ketchup, mayo, dirt from the ground...

I'll try and keep this post updated as I get more rsvp's or if the forum won't let me update it then I'll repost it periodically.
 
Anyone going to this meeting... sheesh? I only have two bug orders.

I'm wondering the same thing, maybe it is just a bad day for people? Right now on the list theres only 7 people other than me and Jo, that makes 9 so far...I guess you could consider us the die-hards of the group, we are all pretty much there no matter what...Maybe they are afraid of my cooking? ;-)
