UPCOMING MEETING:
Join us Sunday May 18th 2008 at 2pm at the home Frank & Marsha Kray in Salem, WI. Our meetings are unstructured, more of a social affair, that offer you a chance to talk killies. Our meetings end with an auction of killifish and plants. For directions or more information please email: WAKO
The Wisconsin Area Killifish Organization invites anyone interested in Killifish to join the club! WAKO members meet on the 2nd Sunday of the month at 2pm. We have members in Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan and Minnesota. Since we cover a large area, we meet at various members homes across the state of Wisconsin. This allows members to attend the meetings that are within driving distance.

Our meetings are very informal and usually consist of killie conversation accompanied by a nice spread of food and beverages. Meetings conclude with an auction of Killifish and plants with all proceeds going to the seller.
