Buffalo Aqua Club Membership Meeting

Lower Lakes Marine Historical Society Museum

There were not enough members to generate a quorum, therefore an unofficial meeting was called to order at 7:41 PM by Vice President Jeff Wilson. We welcome a prospective new member coming to us by way of phone contact with Rob Niemiec, thru the old BAC website, which is still up and running. The diver’s name is Paul Brandis, his contact info is 816-5718 or MaxPwr48@msn.com
