Hello fellow OVAS club members, this month marks the beginning of the club`s 2009-2010 season, it looks like we are starting with a bang, first off is our inaugural fishy garage sale/membership drive on Saturday Sept.26Th., this is where you the members get to purchase/renew your 2009-2010 subscription & meet fellow hobbyist as we  snatch up the many deals expected.
http://ovas.ca/index.php?topic=38998.0

Our first regular club meeting will follow on the Monday after the garage sale - Sept. 28th , this meeting will feature a DVD seminar by Ad Konings titled " Malawi Cichlids feeding behavior" along with some mouth watering Pizza, please note that since the expense for providing the Pizza is been borne by the paid members , we will ask that if you are not a paid member , please feel free to participate but make a monetary contribution towards the Pizza.
As usual we will be having our door prizes for our paid members , also the usual coffee & other beverages, so come out , meet your fellow hobbyist, make friends away from the key board, ask questions  , teach or learn a thing or 2.

Looking forward to seeing you all on the 26Th & 28Th of Sept.
Please note there will be no Mini auction this month

I'm going to try to make it to both the garage sale and the first meeting. Unfortunately, we are so busy at work, that I might not be able to attend the garage sale

Snider82, they are a couple of members that drive down from your area for meetings, perhaps you can car pool with them sometime, I can ask them for you, just PM me if you are interested.

I hope the meeting was good. I had a conflict and couldn't make it. Anyway, hope it was good. How long do meetings usually last?
Cheers, Steve

Yeah, I cut out at 8:00, I promised my daughter I'd put her to bed. Enjoyed the movie though.

Life is too short to wake up with regrets.  So love the people who treat you right.  Forget about the one's who don't.  Believe everything happens for a reason.  If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands.  If it changes your life, let it.  Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.

Yeah, you guys were suddenly gone. I didn't even see you leave. But you never know. Maybe there'll be RK squares again some day.
