Northwest Killies and Plants (fwd)

[Erik Olson <erik@thekrib.com>]

If we haven't already plugged the Portland Show at the end of September,
here is yet another reason to go: Northwest Killies.  Read Brian's message
below.  I also thought they are having Wayne Leibel and Dick Au as
speakers (two popular presenters at recent GSAS meetings too!)... this
would make it THREE very good speakers, plus the show, auction, banquet,
and just a few blocks from Portland's coolest fish store.

Between this and the two great speakers Kathy lined up for us in Seattle
in October, it's going to be a great fall!

There's nothing up on their website yet (www.gpas.org), but their
webmaster had a recent burglary & is no doubt busy with other things at
the moment...

Dear all,

"Northwest Killies" is putting on their first show in conjunction with the
G.P.A.S this coming September 28th, 29th and 30th. As a side-bar to the
festivities, I am planning a "mini-exhibit" of what I call "Natural Setups"
for raising killies. This approach uses thickly planted tanks to provide a
suitably beautiful home for Killies (and others) to breed in. I will have a
couple of tanks setup to show this "system" off to people and will offer
selected spp. of plants in the auction that I have found to be best suited
for this.

If you plan to be in the Northwest region during that weekend, be sure to
route your trip through Portland, Oregon. Al Castro will be speaking on
South American annual fish, and the auction at the end to a HUGE event!!!
(Last years auction took nearly six hours to complete.)

See you there!!
