Water Garden Gems is hosting a fundraising event to benefit the Citizens for the Protection of Cibolo Creek. On the south side of interstate 10 across from Water Garden Gems a new land fill has been opened based on a temporary permit. They are seeking to obtain a permit to establish a permament landfill and trash inceneration unit at this location. This event is intended to be a fundraiser to help fight this landfill which will endanger the Cibolo Creek drainage in this area. Additionally, it will be a great oppertunity for anyone wanting to buy some nice baby koi and also added exposure for our club to publisize our organization, conduct some summer pond & koi seminars and recruit some new members.   Hope to see you at Water Garden Gems the weekend of July 18-19.
