Re: North East Discus Meeting, Winter 2010!!!!

Hi all,
A few notes...

First....Please consider sending me some Pictures at brewmaster15@netscape.com Don't be Shy about it... I don't have too much time to work on this slide show... I promise I won't make anyone stand up infront of the room and speak.....It just a very casual presentation....

I can't possible do " Your Year in Discus" with out "YOUR" help! well actually I could..but a photo shop spoof might be embarrassing!!

Second... Last call for my Surf and Turf BH mix... I am making this up this weekend, and I probably won't have much availible other than whats ordered ....so please let me know ASAP if you have not already done so.

Thirdly ,
The meeting is being held on March 6, thats only a little over a week away... I need to hear from everyone thats coming so I can get a head count...please let me know how many in your party will be here, and if you will be able to bring a pot luck dish ( this is not necessary but if can ...great)

My home is address is

75 Maltby lane
Northford CT 06472

203-464-2869 is my cell if you get lost.

Thanks everyone,
I'm really looking forward to seeing you all!

Hi all,
Great news... I've been in touch with Ken of Kensfish ( one of our sponsors). Ken will be coming to the gathering. He has kindly offered to bring supplies to those that need them to the meeting.

His website is..

http://www.kensfish.com

Drop him an email to arrange for your items.

This is just one more good reason to think about joining us if you are on the fence over it.

Theres going to be a great group of hobbyists here.
