Presidents Message

Condolences are being sent out to Jim and Margaret Kelly on the passing of Margaret’s father. Claire Kraft passed away on January 10th. On January 17th, one of our members, Margaret Gregg passed away. Margaret is Annette’s Mom and Les Gregg’s wife. She battled cancer for over two years and will be greatly missed. Some of you may remember her from the auctions. She and Les also hosted the annual BBQ at their home in Dorchester last summer. We would like to thank all of the members who sent their condolences or came to the visitation, it meant a lot.

Wishes for a speedy recovery go out to Steve Gregson. Steve had an operation on his knee last week. A speedy recovery to Dorothy Reimer’s son Arthur, who also had surgery last week.

The speaker for January was Bob Wright, and he did a presentation about the American Livebearer Association. I enjoyed the evening and learned a lot about the ALA. I would like to go to the convention and pick up some of those rare livebearers.

The guest speaker for February will be Jerry Draper. He has been in the hobby for many years. Jerry is the owner of the Tropical Fish Room in Brantford, he is also a judge and auctioneer. Jerry has knowledge on many topics from filtration to fish breeding. His presentation will be both educational and entertaining.

The fish show for February will be Gouramis, Paradise Fish and Bettas along with the open class for fish and the open class for plants. The auction will be there as usual.

Happy Valentines Day!

Be nice to your Honey.
