Get yourself on the sign up list if you haven't already guys. If we get enough people signed up, I'd also like to bring in some kind of wild zoa.

Here's the direct link to the sign up page

There are some exciting things happening behind the scenes!

Remember, this is not just for members. If you know a reefer who likes awesome corals, invite them/ bring them. AZNNUTTY will be setting up an even bigger spread with even better stuff. The sooner the head count is locked in the better as there is a ton still to do. Trust me, you want to be there.
 
Ok! Finally some actual details...

The Where: 31 Amber Trail Madison, CT. Please do not park in the driveway and keep to one side of the street. There is a church across the street with plenty of parking

The When: The event will start at 12PM and will go until you guys decide its time to leave. Keep in mind this doesn't mean the vendor table will be open into the night haha. Those guys will be able to close up when they see fit. (I believe it was around 6 or 7pm last year?)

The Who:
-Aznnutty who was one of the vendors last year will be coming, and bringing a larger setup than last year. He also mentioned he has a couple surprises for us as MACNA is the following weekend.

- Exotic Fish and Coral will also be bringing down some of their corals for you all to check out and take home. This is a great chance for some of you that are farther to the east to check out what you've been missing.

Now some of you may remember last year the vendors were in that small room inside the house. This year we will be setting them up in the garage. There will be a time or two throughout the day where these guys might want to take a break. In that case we will close off the garage until they're all set.

Depending on the amount of sign-ups that we have on August 13th will influence the actual number of coral colonies we bring in, and the type of dinner we have that night. The lower numbers will be a normal dogs and burgers and for corals I was thinking an insane chalice colony and/or a blasto

If we hit last year's paid sign ups we will be doing smoked pulled pork and the corals will be bountiful. Zoas, blastos, chalice, and possibly a hardy sps colony or an acan colony.

So here is where I ask you guys to get the word out. Text your CTARS buddies that you haven't seen on the forum in a while and remind them this is coming up. If you go into an LFS, tell another saltwater customer about the forum and the event. I do not make any money, nor do I put any in for this event. (aside from my own $25) So the more people that get their payment in by August 13th the more coral and the better the food will be!

How the frags are chosen:
Last year, we printed a list of all the names, cut them out, and had the person who's name was pulled, pull the next name. When your name comes up, you'll be able to pick one frag of each of the colonies we bring in. So once again that means the more people that sign up, the more frags you all get for your $25 on top of dinner. 2 favias, and 1 chalice frag went to each person last year with 23 paid sign ups to give you an idea of the quantity vs signup
 
I received some serious teaser pics from AZNNUTTY yesterday, and all I can say is WOW. I hope you guys like eye popping LPS!!!

Boss, would it be possible to post the names of who has paid thus far?
 
Okay, I apologize ahead of time if I don't know your screen name. Paypal doesn't give me that luxury and I don't have the member list on this computer. I'm feeling a bit lazy today and don't feel like going on my other one ;)

Before I go ahead with the list of names I would like to ask that anyone that is on Facebook to please hop onto our page, check out this event and share it to your page to help spread the word. That will help out a lot. It will also be on Google+ shortly if anyone wants to share this event with their circles :) Thanks!
