No meeting on June 12th!

Hi all,

I will be in New Jersey for the 17th field meeting of the North American Dipterists Society next week, so I will not be in a place where I can lead the meeting.

If anyone is interested in leading a meeting in my stead, feel free to message me. It doesn't have to be formal, just chatting and discussing fly stuff (or really, whatever you want).

Thank you for the continued support!

Zachary
