Livebearers

WE ARE REMODELING
Our website lacked a webmaster and was lost during the disarray of COVID. We are rebuilding it. The forum bulletin board is ready to go with an updated software version that will now also work on phones! Soon, we will proceed to install the other pages and features, with plans to modernize the site. As always, find meeting and event information HERE. Welcome back!
NOTE: We had to restore data from a very old 6/20/2017 backup version of our database. So if you opened your account after that date, it will be missing and you will need to create a new account.
