I'll be there as well. I'm bringing a print out that will be used to log in your beers. When you arrive please ensure you log your beer in on the sheet so it makes for easier note taking (and stuff doesn't get missed!)

[Blackcomb]

Hey everyone,

Working on getting the notes up but pushing up against a much needed vacation to Laughlin so it may be until Monday before I can get those done. Thanks for the patience!

[JonW]

With the hardware you pack around, I figured you'd be live blogging it!

Have a good trip.

Discussed
Jon started off our meeting talking about the new 2016 club officer elections. The posts have gone up so please ensure you stop by to nominate who you think would be best for each position soon! Voting will happen after so keep an eye out for those threads as well.

We are also going to be starting a alternate meeting to the bi-monthly meetings that the club has. These meetings will be non-official and will take place in the month between official club meetings. If you have any suggestions on places for these to take place please contact Tony.

August brew day was at Dan Hempy's house. 12 or so folks made it to the day and from all accounts it was a great time. Thanks Dan!

Learn to homebrew day is currently scheduled for November 15th. Venue is still up in the air but stay tuned for details.

Brian Cockle hosted a BJCP off flavor tasting at his home on the 13th. It was well attended and is helping those who are preparing to take the test.

'Distinguished' Tim Shepard is looking to possibly host the October brew day at his home. This isn't set in stone yet so please follow the forums for an official call.
