The Greater Seattle Aquarium Society (your local aquarium club since 1971) is having its B-I-G annual General Auction!!
There will be new and used equipment (plants/fish/substrate/lights/filters/tanks/ stands/etc) mostly freshwater but marine folk can score great deals too - we never know what will show up! Most of the plants and fish available will be locally grown: corys, killies, cichlids, shrimp, koi, common and rare aquatic plants (No plants off the "do not sell" list).
Raffle: GSAS will be raffling a complete 75 gallon set-up, tank, stand, canopy, light, filter, and extras at the auction!
You must be a member to sell; everyone can buy: cash, credit cards, or personal checks for GSAS members
Our auction will be held at the same larger location we used last year. It will be at the West Seattle Christian Church Gymnasium, 4400 42nd Avenue Southwest, Seattle, WA. The church is conveniently located at the intersection of SW. Genesee St. and 42nd Ave. SW just 6 blocks from the West Seattle Bridge.
No admission charge, accessible, family friendly (but no furry/feathered pets please), lots of free parking
Saturday April 13th starts at 10:00 until ??; Registration and Check-in starts at 9:00; early check out available
The money raised at this auction helps GSAS bring world class speakers to our community for our free lecture series presented at our regular meetings on the second Tuesday of the month. In the last year we have offered presentations by Ad Konings, Karen Randall, Oliver Lucanus, Lawrence Kent, Chuck Rambo, Tom Barr, Gary Lange, Dick Au, Ted Judy, and Christel Kasselmann just to name a few. Next September GSAS is pleased to sponsor a presentation by international speaker Ian Fuller who will be our lead off speaker for the 2013-14 season!
We are generously sponsored by many of the local fish stores and numerous aquarium supply manufacturers.
See our web page at GSAS.org for more information.
Me and a couple friends may be going too! :]
