FYI: WAMAS meeting this Saturday

[skeety]

Due to the fact that I'm a SLACKER and not really getting the WMRC off the ground, I felt compelled to keep you guys informed of activities in another club in our area. Sounds like a fun time to me!!!

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=


The Fall Meeting of the The Washington Area Marine Aquarist Society (WAMAS) will be on held Saturday Nov, 10 2007 from 1:00 - 5:00 p.m. at Kilmer Middle School near Tysons. Our featured special guest speaker is Rich Terrell of the PPG Aquarium in Pittsburgh.

Along with the talk, we will be conducting a frag workshop with all frags donated to WAMAS members and guests attending the meeting. Coral colony donations for the frag workshop (so far) include:

Acanthrastrea from Rik Leishman
Bubble Tipped Anemones from Biodork
Bubble Coral from David Hochheiser
Long tentacle Anemone from Doug Arthur
and various acros.

Many of the frags will be mounted using frags kits donated by Boston Aqua Farms.

Along with Dr. Mac, lots of frag swapping, and a great raffle, this is sure to be a meeting NOT to miss!
