Calling all SWARM CATCHERS

[Bill Perkins]

Hi everyone -- I'm assembling a text messaging list of folk interested in catching swarms.  If you or anyone you know wants to be on the list, please text me at 617-388-7378.  From then on, if you hear about a swarm and are unable to get it within two hours, please text the swarm catchers with the swarm's location, contact info., and any other helpful details (height, size, duration,...).  Everyone will receive the text at the same time, and the first person to respond goes for the swarm. 

Good luck and happy hunting!

--Bill

Based on the way MCBA does it, I would suggest that you only send the address and contact info of the person who reported the swarm to the first person who responds to you, otherwise it will inevitably result in multiple catchers reporting contacting the reporter.

Just a suggestion!
