- Meetings will be taking place every Friday at one pm in STB room 116.

- Our big project for this semester is to get the Butterfly Garden cleaned up and completed in time for the May 3rd dedication ceremony for Dr. Radinovsky. This will include obtaining the picnic tables and plaque, as well as adding additional plants to the garden. We must decide what we want to have the plaque say and find out how much it will cost to have made.

- Our paintball trip is scheduled for Saturday, April 5th.

- A trip to the Mutter Museum in Philadelphia is also going to be planned; the tentative date of this trip is Saturday, March 15th. Information on the museum can be found here: http://www.roadsideamerica.com/attract/PAPHImut.html

- A project for the future was discussed involving maintaining beehives on campus.

- We still have t-shirts which we are selling for 12 dollars each ($10 for club members). Also, there are four baby Chilean Rose Tarantulas still available. They are $10 each. Information on how to care for one of these spiders is found here: http://www.petbugs.com/caresheets/G-rosea.html Dr. Wallace also has an aquarium with a light and heater which he is selling. See him for details.

- We are kicking around ideas for a commercial on the MU cable station.

- Finally, the website has been updated with photos from last semester. There is still no content listed under "Insect of the Month"! If you have an interest in this, go ahead and make something for that section, or even add something new of your own.
