2011 Official Fall Frag Swap.

Yeah, Midtown Stomp will be going to Sacramento Turn Verein at 3346 J Street but they want a lot more $ to rent. We're looking at getting our own location, and if we pull that off, then we can rent to MARS for frag swaps for less $ than at the ESB. That won't be until at least January at the earliest, but if you can't find a new location easily, I'd say postpone the frag swap and wait for me to open the new place.
 
Interesting turn of events. Following the thread... will quickly change flyers, advertising when location is determined... or dates, or whatever.....
 
I am trying to secure a location.

Palygirl let's take this to the MARS home forum from here on out. If I can not find a new place in a few days we may postpone until further notice.
 
To all,

Until further notice the swap has been postponed. I will let you all know when the new date and location has been set. I am very sorry for this but I have no choice until we can find a venue that will suit our needs and is available. I hope to have a venue set up by Mid November. So please stand by and be patient with us.
Prepay will be applied to the new swap date. So don't worry about that. If you cannot make the.new date or want a refund please let us know.

Shawn Borchers.

Just wondering if there was any restriction, "3 frags required." I noticed that other clubs put some restriction as to the 3 frags required. (xenia,green star polys , mushrooms ect.)
I am not trying to discourage any one form bringing these , some one will take them.

Any 3 coral frags plus entry fee ???
 
Yes any three healthy frags and the fee. Use your judgment when picking frags to bring and make sure they are properly labeled in Water tight plastic containers. That are see thru.

Hey Borchers, my wife and I are planning to attend the swap. My question is that she wants to swap too and you have to be a member of a reef club. I am a member of mars and on the mars website it states that the membership is per household. Does that make her a member so she wouldn't have to pay the club dues? Thanks for any info.

just an update...........looks like maybe some rain this weekend?....woops....just registered for swap....so ill be there at 9am saturday....as a worker and a swapper...the wife will be a helper to....see you there......mike..mars member/board pr rep
 
She will be fine to swap as long as she is prepaid or pays at the swap and has her 3 frags. . But being a Forum member counts as well.
 
Registered. I just want to confirm that everything on the tier 1 and tier 2 list are considered for bonus round tickets? I plan to bring a bunch of extra frags, but just checking.

Thanks,
Ron
