The Waikato Aquarium Society will be having a site there and for the duration of the expo we are going to be offering FREE Youth Membership (16 years and under) 50% of Memberships that makes it $15 for single/Senior $20 for family. We will also be running a raffle for a AR510 tank with everything included, this also come with a great maintenance kit that the goldfish bowl has kindly donated. Tickets for this will be $2 each or 3 for $5 We also have another little raffle for those who already have a tank and just want to win a few thing, Tickets for this is $1 each and with every new member that signs up during the expo they will get 2 free tickets into this raffle.

HandS Posted August 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 Was a awesome weekend there was over 10,000 people there over the two days. We had to basically stand outside of our site the whole time as there ware to many people looking at the fish tanks lol. We got so many positive comments from both parents and children it was really good. :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caryl Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 This is going to be a major problem as the order is already being processed for a set number of AWs and YBs :roll: I think all these new latecomers are going to have to have ye olde print magazines done by me rather than the new ones from the printer for the August edition.
