<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 1.3em;">The Arizona Rivulin Keepers are sponsoring their 14th annual Southwest Area Killifish Event (SAKE on <strong>Saturday, March 10, 2012, </strong>at the </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 1.3em;">The Holiday Inn (formerly the Ramada Plaza Hotel Phoenix at Metro Center), 12027 North 28th Drive, Phoenix, AZ 85029</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 1.3em;">. The event will feature three programs that should interest a wide range of aquarium hobbyists: </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 1.3em;"><br /> - <strong>Jim Fong</strong> will discuss the genus <em>Nothobranchius</em> (African annual killifish) and the title of his presentation is "Nothobranchius - Easy or Difficult?"<br /> - <strong>Greg Sage</strong> will talk about the selective breeding of aquarium fishes.<br /> - <strong>Aaron Ambos</strong> will present information and pictures of the wildlife of the Great Basin Desert, with a focus mainly on the isolated and rare fishes of the eastern Great Basin. </span><br /><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 1.3em;"><br />Anyone can attend and the public is welcome. There is no registration fee to attend SAKE as the event is funded by a gigantic raffle, a silent auction, and a regular auction. To be successful, we rely upon both your contributions of aquarium fishes, aquatic plants, and live foods, and your participation in the raffle and auctions. The raffle will consist of products donated by various aquarium manufacturing and supply companies, as well as local aquarium and pet stores. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 1.3em;">You can register at the door; however, we encourage you to "register" before the event as it helps us with the planning. The earlier the better. There may also be some incentives offered at the event for those who register early. To register early, on or after January 4, 2012, please send an e-mail to <a href="mailto:azkillie@yahoo.com">azkillie@yahoo.com</a>. The e-mail to register must include:<br /><br /> 1. Your name<br /> 2. Current hometown<br /> 3. Any current aquarium club affiliation(s) <br /><br />If you are registering a spouse, children, or a friend, please include the same information for each attendee. See you at SAKE!</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 1.3em;"></span>
