Dear Board, I would like to post a schedule to the members list but in
light of the flub for Jennifer I would like to post to the board first.
Please suggest corrections or correct any guesses (like the auction on the 17th). “Happy New Year! I am proud to announce that we are booked for most of
2010. The good news is that a number of speakers will be giving multiple
views and perspectives of one particular geography. This includes film travel
logs with video, information of importation, a study of speciation/hybridization
in a divers closed system and sand dwellers. It just so happens that this
magical place is the African Rift lakes and Lake Tanganyika in
particular. For the cichlidphiles, this is a great lineup and we have
asked the speakers to focus on aspects that are interesting to all members.
For example Jennifer will show video of cooperative hunting behavior between
mastacembelid eels and predatory cichlids! January 12th, 2010: Our new friends in the
Vancouver BC club are sending Jennifer Reynolds to talk about her time in Lake
Tanganyika and her contribution to the Vancouver Aquarium’s new Lake
Tanganyika exhibit. February 9th, 2010: The Plant Auction! Follow signs
are we may move across the street to a bigger space for the auctions. March 9th, 2010: A show in two parts with the Homeshow
and our own Jeff talking about importing cichlids April 17th, 2010: The General Auction on a Saturday!
May 11th, 2009: Ad Konings on Tanganyika sand dwellers. June 8th, 2009: Wayne Leibel on speciation/hybridization. September, October and November are filling up fast!
Tom is inviting a rainbow fish speaker and we have soon for at least one club
member to give a full or 1/2 talk. -Paul |
