December 2007

GFSA Info

The Goldfish Report publication is back on track; everyone should have received up through the September/October 2007 issue. Look for the final 2007 November/December issue next month. For info and general updates on the Goldfish Report, take a look here for info from the editor on upcoming issues of the Goldfish Report and the publication schedule. This page is updated as information is provided to the Webmaster.

If you have let your membership lapse or have been thinking about joining the GFSA, now is a great time - here is a form you can print. To submit material for the Goldfish Report to our editor, please see the updated society contact info. Articles and photos in electronic form are particularly appreciated.

The current line-up of people filling the GFSA offices is on the society officers page. The GFSA Board of Directors continues 2007 with a focus on ensuring that the society is undertaking activities and providing services that our members want. Tell us if there is something you really want (even better, volunteer to help us do it).

Interested in joining the GFSA but still not sure? We have two sample Goldfish Reports available to download, to demonstrate that every issue is packed with thought provoking information and pictures available nowhere else. We are also promoting an electronic membership option that significantly lowers the cost of membership! Only $10US gets you a year of informative, timely color issues of the GFSA's Goldfish Report, sent directly to your email inbox.

Lessons Learned "Quick Hits"

We are soliciting short lessons-learned from hobbyists: events that possibly left you sadder, but measurably wiser. Have a good one? Please send it to the  . Here is a brief diatribe from the Webmaster:

At this special time of the year, what could be more appropriate than ... an advertisement! A holiday gift of a GFSA membership to a fishy friend or family member is a chance to give them 6 issues of thought provoking and educational articles and beautiful color pictures of goldfish. It is also a connection to the people and events that can make goldfish keeping a deeply satisfying hobby. And with the option of the electronic membership, where the giftee receives a PDF of the Report by email, the gift of a membership can be quite inexpensive. A year of goldfish fun for less than the cost of three Lattes!
