Activities: There will be no formal program. This is a potluck picnic. As we get closer to the meeting, we can figure out the details for food & drinks.
We'll socialize and talk fish as usual and we'll have an auction around 3pm.
Here are some websites about the park: http://www.lilaguide.com/reviews/sulphur-creek-nature-center-496545.aspx http://local.thenestbaby.com/ListingView.aspx?lid=496545&scid=9635455 http://parents.berkeley.edu/recommend/places/sulphurcreek.html
The park hours are from 10 am to 4:30 pm, hence the reason for us to meet earlier.
Sulfur creek only reserves picnic areas for birthday parties that include animal programs, so we won't be able to have reserved tables.
We'll have to show up early and grab the non-reserved tables. The naturalist who talked to Doug said that we should send somebody down to look at the site and determine what we should bring along, but there should be plenty of room for us, but on a non-reserved area.
Doug also suggested that we should plan to bring our own barbecue grill just in case there is not one available. (I'm planning to bring pre-cooked foods myself) We can also bring a few of our own tables and chairs, or just big blankets that we can sit on.
If someone local to the East Bay can check out the site before July 19th, it'd be great.

Aplocheilus kirchmayeri "P-03"
Aphyosemion bivittatum "CI 06" Aphyosemion elberti "Bafoussam"
