Ishkabod Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 Is anyone interested in a carpool since I can't afford the gas all on my own. (I reserve the right to say no to anyone due to safety reasons No offence meant) L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishclubgirl Posted September 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Hey all, am working at bringing some neat stuff from across Canada for this auction. I already know at least one of our sponsors will be there and hope to see more!!! So check your couches for change and inspect your tanks for extra fish and plants and mark that date on your calendar!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjsomers Posted September 3, 2009 Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 If we may have stuff to donate - who do we contact? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
werner Posted September 3, 2009 Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 If we may have stuff to donate - who do we contact? Thanks- we love donations! If you're coming to the auction, just bring it along. Donations should be marked as lot #999 (or #998 if you want to designate the proceeds towards expanding the most excellent CAS library.) Can't make it to the auction? Fire me a PM and we can arrange transport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
werner Posted September 3, 2009 Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 More details... If you wish to sell items at the auction: Contact Ward at waysmeans@calgaryaquariumsociety.com to get a vendor number. CAS members are allowed up to 25 lots; non-members up to 10 lots. Please fill out a vendor form with your item descriptions and have it ready prior to the auction start. Label your items with your vendor number and item number (eg. 14-01, 14-02, 14-03, etc.) Please label your fish, plants, etc. with their scientific name, common name, number of specimens, sex, etc., so that it's easy to tell what is being bid on. Equipment should be clean and in working condition, or clearly marked otherwise. ***Fish must be bagged properly (no ziplocks) or you will incur a re-bagging fee.*** Item proceeds are split with 70% going to the seller and 30% to the CAS. Cheques for the sellers' earnings are mailed out following the auction. If you wish to buy items at the auction: Show up, look at the items, wave your hand in the air. You can pay for your items as you win them, or run a tab and pay at the end of the day. Either way it's CASH ONLY. There's a bank machine across the street if you need it. Your purchases are your responsibility. Make sure you're able to care for any fish you win, and transport large items like tanks and stands. More auction rules and fish bagging guidelines should be up on the CAS website shortly. Oh yeah... There are raffle prizes and silent auction items too...

fishclubgirl Posted September 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 Okay, I have got one supplier confirmed. She makes homemade "critter crumbs" that are a hit with my BN's and snails. Also good to support the "little guys" so come to the auction and get some!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
