Fewer Meetings in 2003 - Next Meeting Feb 4th
  • The NMMS Board decided that the club will continue holding regular meetings at the NM Museum of Natural History on the first Tuesday of most months. The club will not meet in January, which means that the next regular meeting will be at 7:30pm on February 4th, 2003.

    New Newsletter Editor
  • At the Sep02 Meeting I explained my decision to retire at the end of this year as Editor of the NMMS Newsletter. I recognize the irony in this statement, since my publications have already become both smaller and sparser during the last several months. Fortunately, Ann Floyd has offered to take over the editing and publication duties.
  • Before returning to New Mexico, Ann edited several issues of the Arizona Fun-Gi, newsletter of the Arizona Mushroom Club. She now wants to apply her talents toward production of a new (and undoubtedly better) News publication for NMMS.
  • Ann is trying to come up with a title for the new publication--something a bit more imaginative than the "NMMS Newsletter." If you have a suggestion for a new name, please pass it on to Ann.

    Website
  • I will continue to provide current and pertinent information on the MycoWest Website. I encourage members to visit MycoWest.net for current news, club info, and more. Ann and I have discussed including on the Website an online copy of her new publication. We will relay details as soon as we have them.
