June Meeting and July Auction Cancelled
In accordance with the COVID-19 Restore Illinois plan, all club events for June and July have been cancelled in order to avoid gatherings of 10 or more people. This includes our July auction which is typically attended by well over 50 people. Our next auction is currently scheduled for January 16, 2021.
No Events in May
Due to the extension of COVID-19 stay-at-home orders in Illinois, there will be no club activities in May. However, please remember that all pet stores in Champaign remain open and available to help you meet the needs of your fish and other pets.

Sheltering in place can cause you to pause and think about the freedoms you enjoy and take for granted. One of these things might be the freedom to assemble with others who share something in common. In our case – we like to assemble with other fish and aquarium minded folks. If you have access to a good quality internet service, you can find a wealth of entertainment and information in YouTube videos. To help you through this time of isolation, I’ve reached out to some club members and asked for a list of their favorite fishy-minded YouTube Channels and have included the number of subscribers for each one. I hope each of you finds something new on this list to enjoy. Thanks go to all of you who contributed to this list.
