August Meeting
« on: August 02, 2010, 23:10:50 »
August's Meeting will be held on the Sunday, the 22nd just outside of Carriage Hill Metro Park. PM me for directions. This meeting will not be about coral or fish as my tank is pathetic and not worth looking at.  ^-^ Instead, I'd like this to be a get together for everyone. Wives, Husbands, Kids, Dogs, bring people that don't usually attend meetings.

I'd provide food, the usual fair, hotdogs, burgers, chips. Bringing a dish would be great, but of course not required. BYOB booze-wise.

I've got chairs but you might want to bring one to ensure a seat. I have a mess of poles, but bring one if you've got one. That saves me from having to untangle them :) Dogs welcome. Sponsors more then welcome, I'd love you have some of you guys out.

Now some teaser pictures...

Me+ dog
I should be able to make it to my first meeting.

Do dogs have to be leashed? My dog does great with all dogs from chiwawahahhhas (or however you spell it) to great danes and kitties, however she has an awful habit of lots of snarling, mean sounding barking when I bring her near new dogs, just when she is on a leash. I take her to the dog park often and she usually does a awful bark/growl until I let her off the leash then is fine, plays a little, but she is really just a people lover. Typically she only plays with boxers, but she usually just seeks attention from people.




^mr kitty was looking a little too cuddly not to include his picture^

Regarding Dogs:

The property is fairly well fenced in. But escape it possible for the adventurous mutt. Use your best judgment, make sure they get along with kids and other dogs.

Meeting will start around 1pmish and go as long as needed.  ;D

Yes. Croppy, Blue Gill, Catfish, Bass.

Two things if you'd like to fish. You can't keep them and please crimp your barbs down.

Also, my cat caught me on here and pretty much demanded I take her.  When I said no, she gave me this odd piercing look.
