Here is the Schedule for the Michigan Coral Expo & Frag Swap:

10:00: Admission for morning speaker (Rick Preuss) **space is limited**
10:30-11:30: Morning Speaker Session
11:30-12:00: early exhibition hall admission for morning speaker attendees
12:00: doors open to exhibition hall for general admission
3:00 raffle starts
4:30 end

A few swap tips for newbies and veterans....
1. Don't forget cash. Some vendors will take cards, but others are cash only. There is an ATM in the hotel.
2. Doors open at 12:00 to the general public.
3. Morning Speaker (Rick Preuss) starts at 10:30. Arrive early for a seat.
4. Raffles starts at 3:10. Everyone gets 10 tickets with a paid admission. You will need to be present to win most items.
5. Be conscious of how much time you take talking to a vendor if what your discussing doesn't involve buying something . Vendors are very helpful and knowledgable and most will try to help you, but please beware of the fact that vendors are there to sell and not to explain how to rid your tank of nuisance algae (for example). Go to CaptiveReefs.com for these discussions. :)

Who was it that had the clean up crew prebuy promo's last year? Hermits, emeralds, urchins etc. I don't remember seeing them advertise that this year.
