Last month Mike (Skippy) will be talking about aquatic photography. He'll cover some general photography fundamentals, understanding the various settings on your cameras and some tips to hopefully lift your photographic strike rate.

This  month the topic is a DIY night from Alex "What you can do with a used softdrink bottle"  as I have not been able to get hold of anyone because I have been away. I will update the web site when I find out.

The normal auction and raffle will take place again this month, so if you have excess healthy fish or a surplus of plants here is your opportunity to pass them on to other enthusiasts.

The breeders awards is coming to a close for this year, so please get your forms in this month or the next for the final collation of who is breeders champion for the year.  We haven't had too many entries as yet so you never know your luck.

The AGM is fast approaching and Paula and Harry are standing down due to work commitments, so we need help otherwise the club will not run. So PLEASE approach one of the committee members and see if you can help us run the club next year. It is not very demanding, but as the saying goes "many hands make light work". There are only 5 of us running the show this year and if it drops to 3 it will be very hard to keep the club running smoothly.  

Thanks to who showed for the committee meeting it was good to see new faces with fresh ideas.  If you want a say in how your club is run please feel free to join the comittee.  It is not overly taxing and takes up very little time per month.

So with all these benefits for members, why wouldn’t you want to be a member? So we can still offer member services like the trade table, library books purchases, magazine subscriptions and conservation program, please renew your membership or try to encourage your friends to join.

Keep those fish a swimming dancing
