Welcome

CAOAC is a non-profit organization established in 1959. We are a devoted group of individuals working with member clubs for over 50 years. CAOAC is not a club, but is a centralized entity for member clubs. We discuss items of interest related to the hobby. We encourage you to look through our site and see for yourself the positive things that CAOAC and our member clubs represent.

Presidents message for September 2010

I can’t believe summer is over already. It was a really nice one and I got to set up a pond at my Mom’s that took up much of my “fish time” this summer. My wife let me get a new tank but it had to replace an old one so I’m no further ahead in terms of gallons but we got a nice piece of furniture. Can’t wait to put the fish from the pond in it for the winter. All the clubs are gearing up for a busy fall. The first auctions and shows of the season are coming up this month:

Sssafe Haven, Halifax Reptile Expo, September 12
Sarnia, Show and Auction on September 18
Canadian Reptile Expo, Toronto, September 18 and 19
London, Show and Auction on September 26.

The CAOAC Meeting for this month is going to be held on September 12 instead of the 19th to allow for Noel and I to head south the next weekend for a friend’s One Woman Art Show in Pennsylvania. Thanks to everyone for letting us to move up the date. There are some great conventions this fall, Noel and I are going to at least two, the North American Native Fish Association in Nevada and the Catfish Convention in Fairfax, Virginia both in October. It’s never to early to start planning to attend next years CAOAC Convention in Brantford on the long weekend in May.

Please support your local clubs and attend as many of the events as you can. As always, your executive is open to suggestions as to how we can serve you better.

Sincerely,

Bob Wright
