Dear Killi-friends,
The "Belgische Killifish Vereniging" - B.K.V. has the pleasure to announce You the organization of her 26th congress and exhibition on Saturday 5th June and Sunday 6th June 2010. This event will take place in the "Gildenhuis", Pertendonckstraat 14 at B-2520 Broechem-Ranst.
Enclosed herewith is all usefull information regarding this congress and the exhibition. We hope You'll make this known to Your members by putting it in Your magazine.
As you may have heard, our association has lost most of its exhibition material. New material is under construction at the moment. For us this means extra charges. We hope to receive a lot of fish and to see many buyers at the auction on Sunday ...
In the past we could count on your help to make our exhibition a success and we hope it will be the same this year.
We hope we may welcome lots of fish at our congress and to able to meet many members of your association.
We remain at Your disposal for any further information.
Yours truly,
Herman MEEUS
