[GSAS-Announce] GSAS October 2005 Meeting Reminder - Tuesday, October 11, 2005 [Tonight!]
The Greater Seattle Aquarium Society will be holding its regular, October
meeting this evening, Tuesday, October 11, 2005 at 7:30pm at our regular
meeting location on the campus of Seattle Pacific University.
Our guest speaker this month is Phil Edwards, who will be giving us a
presentation on "Planted Aquaria - Aquascaping/Biotope." Phil is a native
of Seattle, currently residing in Charlotte, North Carolina with his wife
Sharon, two cats, and numerous aquariums (though many fewer now than in the
recent past). He will be finishing up undergraduate degrees in Plant
Ecology and Environmental Earth Sciences at UNC Charlotte this May and will
be starting graduate studies in Hydrology next fall. After finding planted
aquariums in 1997 Phil has been very involved in the botanical side of the
hobby. He has been active on more internet discussion forums than he cares
to think about and participates in many local and regional clubs as both a
member and as a featured speaker. An avid aquascaper, Phil has participated
in the AGA International Aquascaping Contest both as a contestant and judge.
He enjoys all forms of aquariums but is best known for planted natural and
biotope aquascaping. His current activities include being on staff at
Aquatic Plant Central and as Advertising Liaison for the Aquatic Gardeners
Association.
Also, don't forget our pre-meeting meal at Siam on Lake Union this evening
at 5:00pm. (See my previous email for further details.) The reservations
are "informal," just so we could get an idea of how many will be attending.
So, don't worry if you haven't let us know yet - there's always plenty of
room and we'd love to have you join us.
So, please make plans to attend, get involved, and watch our club grow! The
doors open for the general public at 7:00pm so come a little early and get
acquainted with others that share your love for all things aquatic! Check
out our website for directions and other interesting information at
www.gsas.org.
We'll see you tonight!
Rick Rose, GSAS Promotions
