phoenix44 Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 Hey everyone! Another month has come and is going by really quickly! There will be another club meeting at the Highbury whanau (did I spell that right) centre @ 1pm on Sunday the 30th of August. I will be there as I cannot possibly be square, and so will Rusty! Everybody is welcome, we have members who travel from Wellington, bulls, Wanganui and even the Naki! See you all there! :bounce: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zev Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 Hey Phoenix, the HBAS are wanting to engage in some inter-club activities with Central Fishkeepers. We were thinking about something along the lines of a Quiz challenge at one of your Sunday meetings, we can make up a trophy and compete for it on a biannual basis, one comp in Palmy, one in Napier with the possibility of a sleepover at The National Aquarium one weekend. You guys up for it? Please discuss this at your meeting and get back to me, ta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I shall bring it up at our gathering, and see who is keen. if the timing is right and wont interfere with my studies then I would love to stay at the nat. aquarium! silly birdface can stay home alone. It would also be good for all of us to meet folks from the hawkes bay and surrounding, and that would expand horizons too. :bounce: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phoenix44 Posted August 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 There was "interest" from the club. but we could organise it if we know the nitty gritty of it all. when, where, how etc. :bounce: timing seemed to be a real important one.

Zev Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 I will run this by the committee, we were thinking we would come and invade one of your meetings and have a quiz competition or swap meet or something. We could also arrange the return meeting to coincide with our annual tank crawl which is usually held on a Sunday, you guys could help come and judge our tanks for our tank competition. If you want to sleep with the sharks at the National Aquarium the night before, we could do the return quiz challenge then. I will check dates and what the cost would be if you want the sleepover.

Zev Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Up the top right hand side of the page there is a little person icon with User Control Panel next to it. Click on it and on the page that opens on the left hand side under Options, click Profile. Your location should be added in the seventh box down. Good luck!
