You guys might want to post this up in the annoucment forum to attract more people

I just got word from the guys in charge at TFP.They are talking about literally gutting part of the store to make room for the anticipated crowds for this event.There will be coral farmers and vendors from many states and areas showing there gems.The turn out for our last several events at That Fish Place,Lancaster PA have been packed and the limiting factor has been space.If you are planning to attend,please register on fragswapper.com ASAP so we can get a good head count and be sure to provide ample space for everyone.

a 60 gallon marineland cube up for grabs.This is a awesome raffle item and I can surely see a few people buying raffle tickets to win this baby.Who wouldn't want a awesome tank such as this sitting in there home.

The excitement is building and the buzz is on peeps.Get your butts registered on fragswapper.com or on our site ncpars.org so we can have a good head count and provide enough door prizes and food to all you hungry reefers

Its a milestone !!! :celeb1:

There has been a few in the last three years but this one deserves mention.

We have officially shattered every record for NCPARS Fall events.We are at 240 registered to attend with a week left before the day.This was my goal when I was in the planning stages of this event and some were skeptical given the packed house we had last year for the Fall 2011 event.

We are paving new ground here for the society and its members.We will be the biggest/best society in the country in we continue this growth and our sponsors continue with the valuable donations.Please remember our sponsors when its time to make that purchase.We have a great sponsor line card and I personally screen this list to be sure we are all pleased with our companies.

Thank you for the support.Looking forward to seeing you all at the event.

Grrrr...biggest event ever and it's on the day of my 5th wedding anniversary. Let's see...how can I get to this thing without spending the night on the couch with the dog?

 

[aznnutty]

Buy a ticket to an event on a later date and celebrate then so you'll postpon the anniversary

 

[rickyfins]

It's time to get excited!

Put your dog and your wife in the trunk of your car for 2 hours. When you let them out you will be able to tell which one loves you more by how happy to see you they are!

Nice. Thankfully the wife and kid both love the tank so I will be coming, it will just be a short stay since it's a "date night" too.

I put some last minute requests in, we'll see who gets them. See you folks there around 2.
