Monthly GWAPA meeting July 17

Rick Dotson · Post by **Rick Dotson** » Sun Jul 11, 2004 6:05 pm

The monthly meeting will be at the home of John Godbey in Annandale, VA. Bring all your extra plants and fish for the auction and make a few extra dollars. Hope to see you there.

Rick Dotson

Here are the directions:

John Godbey
7221 Hansford Ct
Springfield, VA 22151
703-658-0269

From the Beltway, 495, take Braddock Road East. You will come to a traffic signal almost immediately. About 1 1/3 miles further down the road, at the top of a little rise, turn right on Woodland. (If you come to a traffic light at Backlick Road you have gone too far.) Go about 100 yards on Woodland, turn right on Hansford Ct. I'm at the end of the street.

For those of us coming from 95 north which way around the DC beltway is better? Towards PG or Montgomery county? Time wise, how long from say AC?

Thanks

How long do the meetings usually last? I'd like to finally make it to a meeting, but I need to pick someone up at Dulles around 3 on Saturday.

I would take Montgomery. Check the traffic on the radio because Silver Spring can back up just about anytime.

Stop by it would be great to get to meet you.

Meeting usually runs until 4 or so. the auction is usually about 3:30. Although if there is a plant that you can not live without somebody will usually trade you for something so that you may not need to stay until the end.

Great, I'll swing by and stay for as long as I can.

I was really hoping to catch the auction since I'm going to be adding water to my 180G Friday night and need a plant or two for it. <img border="0" src="smileys/smiley4.gif" border="0">

I'll post something in the Flea Market since I'm interested in starter "weeds", I'm assuming the auction is for more "desirable" plants.
Thanks,
Mark

We have everything in the auctions, starter weeds included.

Is there a particular topic for the meeting on Saturday?

Ghazanfar Ghori · Post by **Ghazanfar Ghori** » Wed Jul 14, 2004 2:42 pm

The topic is supposed to be PMDD and Liquid fertlizers
but I think we already discuessed that a few months
ago after Rick put together that PMDD order.

We can either
1) repeat that discussion
2) talk about the GWAPA Florida trip
3) talk about ALGAE
4) talk about growing aquarium plants emersed

The talks will be informal.
