Comment Box/Idea Tracker

I just made the quip in a different thread that ideas are tossed out and never gain traction. But, it gave me an idea: just like there's a project tracker in the Brewhouse Committee forum, why don't we have an "Idea tracker" or "comments form"? Any member can submit ideas/comments via the website and at the monthly meeting the Board discussions with attendees and prioritizes whatever ideas/comments have come in since the last meeting.

Chaos road trip to Arclight Brewery

Forums: 

Hi Chaos!  While talking to some guys at the brewhouse Saturday, I found out a former member is a head brewer at Arclight Brewery in Watervliet, Michigan.  I contacted Reggie's and they said it would be roughly $30 a person based on a round trip bus ride from Reggie's to Arclight from a rough time estimate of 11-9.  This is for 25 people and the quote is very loose. I feel we should do a couple breweries on this trip, but don't know of any good ones on the way.  I don't think we should go past Kalamazoo, either, so we don't spend too much time on the road.

Volunteers to lead "Beer Reports" at monthly meetings

Forums: 

Hi all.  We are going to be adding a quick segment to our general meetings called a "Beer Report" and I need your help.

The premise is that a member or members pick a style of beer that they like or would like to learn more about. Spend 5 minutes and enlighten everyone with a brief overview of the style, what you like/don't like about it, commercial examples any tips for brewing it. The member should bring enough beer to sample for the other members (2-3 bombers or a 6-pack) in that specific style. CHAOS will reimburse you for the beer you bought, up to $15.
