[AGA-mcm] Sample text ACA in July -- Fund-raiser

[Cheryl Rogers <cheryl@rightstuffwebsites.com>]

Can I send this to the AGA-Member list?


Hi!

The ACA (American Cichlid Association) convention is coming up July 21 - 
24 in Ft. Worth, TX. Larry Lampert helped the AGA (that's us) to acquire 
a table in their vendor room. Thanks, Larry!

Larry had the great idea of selling plants at the AGA table, since we 
can't put them in the auction this year. This would raise both awareness 
and funds.

But we need people to help out at the table. If you were planning to go 
to ACA anyway, and want to volunteer to help staff the table and promote 
planted aquaria, let me know off list at membership  @ 
aquatic-gardeners.org. AGA will give a free one-year membership to any 
volunteer who misses a talk due to helping at the table.

We also need AGA members to donate plants. Your spare clippings could 
earn money for the AGA, but more important you'll be helping to spread 
the word about the association and the planted aquaria hobby. The plants 
don't have to be rare plants--fish folks don't know what to do with them 
anyway. :-)  Stuff like Java fern, Java moss, hornwort, Crypts, Anubias, 
etc. will be great.

If you want to donate plants, mail them to me at:

420 Horseshoe Trl
Oak Point TX  75068

It's hot here in TX, so you might want to send them Priority. Sorry, we 
can't reimburse postage, but it's all for a good cause. Unfortunately, 
you can't deduct donations to the AGA off of your income tax! :-(

Thanks!
