We have a terrific turnout for the first all-catfish event hosted by an aquarium society in the U.S.A.! Below are just a few of the PC forum members who are coming to the convention:
Jools
Shane
Silurus
Coryman
Corybreed
Pturley
Kwalker
Dave Rinaldo
Ingo
Dinyar
Rusty
lfinley58
Picklefish
Kribensis
Hastatus
But the deadline for advance registrations and the fish show is up in just a couple days! If you haven't registered for the convention, you only have until Thursday to do so. Also, if you need hotel reservations these also need to be made by Thursday or else you may risk having to find a different hotel in the area!
If you've already registered, please consider bringing a couple of fish for the fish show. We have terrific prizes for sub-class, class and show winners! Also, please doublecheck with the hotel to make sure that you are included in the convention block for the weekend. You'll get a better price and the hosts will get a discount on the rooms for the event.
We're also still looking for unusual or otherwise compelling donations for the silent auction which will benefit J.R. Shute's work at Conservations Fisheries, Inc. Don't forget to bring some bags of fish to sell in the auction, and be ready to buy some of the terrific livestock available there.
Finally, we need digital pictures of catfishes so that we can make slideshows to project in between speakers and
other events.
Thanks to everyone who has signed up to make this a great event. We're going to have a ton of fun and I can't wait to see everyone in a couple of weeks.
