2 Dear friends and fellow aquarists, A Message from our Chairman On behalf of the 2017 Show Committee and the members of HDAS, I would like to offer you an especially warm welcome to our 54 th Open Show. Without a doubt, you will notice a difference this year, as we have switched our presentation method to less back-breaking tables instead of the traditional bandstands and scaffold boards. With parking and shopping facilities literally on the doorstep we are sure our visitors will have a great time. HDAS will have their fish/equipment shop and food bar open throughout the Show. We are pleased to have been given Classes Dc (Rift Valley Cichlids) and Mc (Rainbowfish) as this year s FBAS Championship Trophy Classes. Our Diamond Class is U (Single-tailed Goldfish). Again this year, we are closing the books for entries on the Wednesday before the Show and there will be no entries on the day (except for straightforward substitutions in the same Class). We will get the Judging underway much earlier and get the public in as soon as possible. Like all Clubs we want potential new members through the door (in addition to our faithful exhibitors). St. Stephen s Church Hall Parkside Road, Hounslow, Middlesex TW3 2BP 300 Yards from Hounslow B.R. station Bus Routes - H28, 110, 111. Meetings alternate Wednesdays.
