This one was better, but there is plenty to learn from (better planning in the morning being the largest area of concern). Having been there now, it will be easier to get a better idea of how to set up next year, if you guys decide to stick with it (need a Goodlettsville resident). I meant to bring a tape measure and get real dims, but forgot it and got wrapped up. There were a number of things that were different than I expected, but I think mkost of it worked out okay. Using the kitchen was a last minute idea (wasn't sure how big it would be and how useable, etc.). I liked the place. I was a bit afraid of power surges, but no problems...
I wanted to send a special thanks to the LFS'. They came through for us on some nice raffle items (AquaPod and the Hydrothruster pump from the Critter and the crocea clam and diploastrea)sp?) were donated by Emerald Bay, who also held the Christmas wrasse and Monti for us). Be sure to thank the staff of either store when you see them. They are a big part of our success as a club.
Also, thanks to Joy with PFO for coming out. I learned alot about the Solaris

. Jenn even liked it and commented on it several times

.
All the volunteers were worth their weight in gold. Thanks for all your hard work. It would not have gone over well yesterday without you.
Be sure to thank all of those who helped sponsor this by donating

. Pure Captive, Air water ice, Drs. Foster and Smith, PFO, the Aquatic Critter, Emerald Bay, Sunlight Supply, Reefer Madness (they dontated some really nice corals for the fragging demonstration), Florida Pets, and all the individuals that donated frags to the door prizes.
Can't wait for next year's
