The meeting is open to the public with free admission. Please R.S.V.P. to "dinnerwithstan@yahoo.org" with the number of people that plan on attending. He will be presenting the films "Sharks Of the Tuamotu Islands", "The Banda Sea", "Return to Miln Bay" (macro) and "The Day Of the Tiger". This will be followed by a Q&A session. Dinner and drinks will be available for purchase. Please shoot me a message if you have any questions, comments, or concerns. This will be an event worth not missing!

Thanks for the notice. I've heard Stan speak at Sea Rovers and he's great.

The event starts at 6:30PM. All related information is available on the United Divers of Central Massachusetts website United Divers of Central Massachusetts - Home (http://www.uniteddivers.org). I will be adding additional information tonight or this weekend.

What isn't on the website right now is that Stan will have books available for purchase (and will sign them), but, these are cash only sales. The restuarant isn't organizing the event, so credit cards can't be processed for this.

Also, a quick update for the RSVP, the correct email address is dinnerwithstan@yahoo.com (Christine pointed this out at a meeting yesterday).

Hope to see you there.
