This poor guy is done trying to run photography contests for troglodytes who lack the creative talent and finesse to really deliver on his vision.

Sorry we let you down Andy...lol

Hi Everyone,

We are looking for volunteers for the 2025 Board of Directors. This is our 2024 board if you are unfamiliar. If you are interested in having a bigger impact in the club...we would love to have you join the BOD! No previous Board experience is required. Just a passion for BAR. Some activities/positions require a bit more time than others. If you are interested (or want to nominate another member), post here or reach out to me or another Board member.

I would be happy to help however we can. I would also like to be considered for the Sponsorship & Public Relations position.

Thanks

I could be available for:
Officers at Large
I can be helping the forum and Frag Swaps. Also helping with events and maybe ideas. Also I think maybe we could have the tank tour. If you guys want around SF. We did not had that in quite some time.
Also I could potentially hold the equipment. I am in San Francisco and I work from home. Sometimes I go in some trips but If I have equipment I'll make sure another person in SF will hold the equipment.

Tank tour would be fun! My wife did similar with the Lafayette Juniors, each month someone hosted a get-together at their place, where they worked on fundraising and donations for kids and women's groups, drank wine, judged each other’s kitchen, but actually did/do productive things for the community and surrounding areas.

It would be fun to do something similar, but reef focused on ethical husbandry, protection of natural resources, etc…
