I know a few members have attended in the past and hope a few can make it this year. Contact me if you have any questions. Thank you. Dave ____________________________________________________________ VAHC Members and Auction Buyers & Sellers: It's time again for our 10th annual Fall VAHC Monster Auction. This year the auction is being held on Saturday, Nov 17th so mark your calendar. Remember - the fall auction replaces the November club meeting. Any members wishing to sell at the auction please contact Dave at dave-carlson@shaw.ca with a phone number to register. Anyone wishing to sell in the November auction must register by October 30 to avoid the $10 late registration fee. Please ensure that everything to be auctioned is clearly labeled and your sellers form is properly filled in. Sellers are limited to 20 items. All items need to be on the tables by 9:15 so please be on time. Members that will only be buying at the auction don't need to register but need to bring a filled in buyers form to the auction. We need helpers to set up in the morning (7:30-9am), to clean up in the evening and we'll also need people throughout the day to help with odd jobs. Contact Dave if you are able to help. The buyers and sellers forms as well as driving directions will be available on the club's website. ---- Here are a few auction reminders and tips. - All fish must be properly bagged in fish bags (no Ziploc bags), with no more than 1/3 water (leaving at least 2/3 room for air). The VAHC is selling fish bags so if you need them then contact me or another steering committee member. -Sellers are limited to 20 items, if you wish to bring more than 20 items let me know and I will contact you the week before the auction and let you know if it is possible. -All sellers must hand in their completed sellers form prior to 9:30 or their items will be placed on the late table and sold at the end of the day. -All items for the auction must be labeled clearly and correctly with permanent marker. -Anything not labeled will be considered a donation. -If you print labels on your printer, put a piece of clear tape over it as most will not be water proof. -Do not feed your fish for 24 hours before bagging them. -Bags of plants must be sealed. -Sellers do not need to fill in buyers forms, they will receive their bidding card when they hand in their sellers forms. -Anyone other than sellers wanting a bidding card must fill out a buyers form, even VAHC club members. -Bring a cooler or box for all your purchases. Any questions please contact me at dave-carlson@shaw.ca Thank You, Dave __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
