Default 2008 Aquatic Gardeners Convention

2008 Aquatic Gardeners Convention

We are proud to announce that the 2008 AGA Aquatic Gardeners Convention will be held the weekend of November 14-16th 2008, at the Atlanta Sheraton, within walking distance of the Georgia Aquarium (http://www.georgiaaquarium.org/).

Takashi Amano is making his third appearance at an AGA convention, including both a lecture and aquascaping demo. Professor Benito Tan will be speaking on aquatic mosses. Professor Michael Kane will be discussing Tissue Culture for the aquarist. Jeff Senske will speak on space/design and the aquarium, which will interest even the non-aquarist. Greg Morin, president of Seachem, returns for the first time since 2001. Finally, Karen Randall will have a banquet presentation on her recent collecting trip to Thailand. There's more -- Check out details at http://www.aquatic-gardeners.org. Please feel free to crosspost and translate this text in other forums you visit. Moderators please move if posted in the wrong section.

It's pretty far from me. I missed the last one that was in California, doh!

Maybe I can find an excuse to travel across the country for this. But with it being so close to Thanksgiving, I probably won't be attending.

Is there a local plant club in Georgia that is helping with the event? I know in the last one the San Francisco Bay Area Plant Society (SFBAPS) was key in helping out with volunteer duties and other logistics.
