Future Virtual Talks Planned

Summer Fish Show and Summer Auction Canceled

After careful consideration, GAAS has decided to cancel the 2021 Ultra-Aqua Annual Fish Show and the Summer Auction. Because of continued uncertainty surrounding the availability to gather together, and because of uncertainty surrounding the ability to rent the Tallmadge Community Center, the 2021 Ultra-Aqua Annual Fish Show and the Summer Auction will be canceled.

Normally, our monthly meetings are held on the second Friday of the month and start at 8 pm at the Ritchie Memorial Shelter House 109 West Avenue, Tallmadge, Ohio 44278. All events are free and open to the public.
