Our Annual Workshop and Auction is held late February/ early March each year. We have Manufacturers' representatives on hand from companies such as Marineland and Tetra plus Ray Lucas of Kingfish Services. We've had the workshops and auctions for over 20 years.

Our next Workshop and Auction will be held sometime in 2009.

In addition, in the past we've had tours of the NCSU College of Veterinary Medicine, The North Carolina Museum of Science, and trips for collecting native fish and plants. Plus, we have a raffle for aquarium goods running throughout the three days and two mini auctions of items donated to the club.

Some of the past guest speakers have been Ad Koenig, Lee Finley, Jack Wattley, David Herlong, Rusty Wessel, Karen Randall, Scott Saunders, Neil Frank, John Kuhns, Tom Allen, Robert Goldstein, Wayne Leibel, Gary Lange, Randy Carey, Diana Walstad, and many more.

Our Annual Auction is held on the Sunday of the workshop weekend and often many rare and difficult to find fish, plants, and hardware items (plus some old collectibles) are put up for bid.

We thank the past guest speakers and the attendees for their time and we extend another "thank you" to those who have provided donations for our auction.
