Centrarchid, Esocid and Walleye Technical Committees of the AFS North Central Division
are planning a joint meeting during July 28-30, 2009 at LaCrosse, Wisconsin. Given the joint nature of the meeting, we have a theme of species interactions and multi-species management, although talks on any topic of interest to the committees are encouraged.

In addition, Wisconsin Chapter AFS is sponsoring a 1.5-day workshop on Fisheries Conservation Genetics during July 27-28, 2009 at the same location.

With Lake Superior, the world’s largest freshwater lake, as our backdrop, the Midwest Recirculating Aquaculture Workshop, Aquaculture Field Day and Vendors Fair will be fun, informative and provide opportunities to exchange ideas with others on June 10 - 12 in Bayfield, WI.
This includes three days of great events:
· 2 days of RAS sessions in Bayfield, including NADF Tour
· Optional narrated 2 hour Apostle Islands Charter Boat Tour
· Aquaculture Vendors Fair - see what’s new and talk with manufacture reps about their products
· Wisconsin Aquaculture Industry Advisory Counsel (WAIAC) Meeting
