This month MARS is excited to bring you Kelly Jedlicki!

Kelly Jedlicki is a long-time aquarist and hobby contributor working in the medical profession with a very long of list of credentials. She brings her knowledge and empathy for all animals and life to the practice of aquariology. Areas of expertise include pathology, disease prevention and management, predatory marine fishes, elasmobranchs and seahorses. Her special love and study of pufferfishes earned her the moniker "puffer queen' by the highly respected reef photographer and writer Scott Michael. She applies her practical wisdom daily to an aquatic collection totaling around 3000 gallons of seawater. With seventeen years of industry experience, her accreditation includes elected board positions such as President and Vice president of the Louisville Marine Aquarium Society, which has successfully hosted three MACNAs, and Vice President of MASNA. Kelly has her own forum, “Disease, Health & Wellness, on www.MarineDepot.com. She has published articles on puffer husbandry, dentistry and cholelithiasis as well as shark husbandry. She has presented both nationally and internationally.

Kelly will be presenting on fish disease, health and wellness and is an authoritative source on techniques to care for sick fish. The MARS meetings are open to the public and all are encouraged to come. This month should be a lot of fun and very educational.

The general meetings are held each 3rd Friday of the month at the Round Table Pizza at Madison and Greenback Ln near Folsom at 7PM. If you like what you see, become a member to gain access to super-secret club only events and benefits (ok, ok, not so super-secret). PM me with any questions you may have and I will be happy to help.

She was also a main speaker at the last MACNA in Pennsylvania where she did a similar, but probably more intense presentation.

Main speaker as opposed to what? There is only one main speaker (keynote Speaker) and they speech the give is called the keynote address. This last year it was Dr Gerald Allen. The rest are just speakers ;)
 
Ya'll should be getting my spam e-mail (if you registered on the MARS website) regarding this month's meeting. I'll use the MARS e-mail system to communicate upcoming events and inform you of what we have planned at the meeting in addition to posting on RC.

My goal is keep you up to date on what we are doing, what we have planned, and more importantly how you fit in. As a member, that was one of my #1 frustrations - I never knew what the heck the club was doing or what was being planned outside of the rumor mill. I am looking to help change that, but as always, need your help - spread the good word and encourage people to sign up on the website so that I can reach them.

To me anyone with their picture in Coral magazine giving a presentation at MACNA in front of other experts is way more "main" than we have had in awhile. I stand corrected. Thanks Gresh ;)
