The dates are not set in stone, but we would like a couple extra people to represent OVAS at the membership drives to help people application/registration process. I will be at all the locations.

The proposed dates are Sept 8, Sept 9, Sept 15 and Sept 16 Sept 17th.

Please respond to this thread if you can help and what dates will work for you.

Due to limited space at our Sponsors we do not need too many people at each location.

I will PM people after posting a schedule once we have more details.

Anyone not able to help can always stop by and say hi and renew your Ovas Membership.

Regards,
  Bruce

BTW you don`t need a membership card to help, just like you don`t need a mebership card to help others with hobby related questions - just saying.

Have not seen any Volunteers for  "Aqua Valley - Sept 17th (~4:30 till close)"

Is nobody able to help? If you can help please post in this thread.

Thanks

I'm available to help Sept 8 or 9, Kanata would be good but other places are probably OK.

How about Big Al's in the east end?  Any dates?

I was also looking at the list of supporting vendors and didn't see it listed.  Does Critter Jungle offer discounts to OVAS?

Since we have not heard back from BA, I don't expect it will happen. Everything has to go through head office so things take time.

If you goto http://ovas.ca/forum/index.php and look at  Forum Sponsors this lists the Ovas sponsors.

Yes I see them on the forum index but if you go to the actual sponsors link, they are not listed.

The sponsors link may be out of date and will be updated soon.... Everyone in the sponsors' section of the forum are sponsors. This tends to get updated faster. I do believe they offer a discount to members as well.

I was asking about Critter Jungle.  :)




Being a FW enthusiast, just trying to figure out how many locally owned FW stores I can shop at it.  So it looks like the answer is four.
