NERAC VII March 24th 2012

[MattyO]

Thanks! Is there a time limit? Like u have to be signed up 2 days before nerac?

 

[jshap9]

Does the conference include the vendors to buy corals?

 

[jshap9]

where is the hotel located?

 

[qy7400]

The hotel is attached to the aquarium.

Online sign-up is preferred so we can plan on enough seats and food for everyone but you can pay at the door.

 

[qy7400]

Less than 3 weeks to go....

I can't believe how time flys, felt like I was just there,,, looking forward to the event

 

[Kurtl000]

Can we pay at the door?

 

[Vinny Kreyling]

You can pay @ the door.
We prefer earlier because it leaves us vulnerable with catering.

 

[MHG]

Is there an itinerary?

 

[qy7400]

Going to post it on the website later.....

Doors open @ 8:30
9A Tony Vargas
11A Dr. Sanjay Joshi
Lunch
1P Peter Schmiedel
3P Julian Sprung

Raffles will start after the last speakers Q&A around 4:15 - 4:30.
Cocktail hour for those staying for the dinner will start at 6P.

 

[MHG]

Great.. So if I have NERAC, lunch and aquarium tickets I should plan to show up at 0830 and leave at 4:30? The NERAC is at the hotel next door to the aquarium?

 

[qy7400]

Correct the show is in the hotel this year, the aquarium is open until 5 so with the aquarium ticket you can stay until they close.

 

[pecan2phat]

Joe,
Is parking across the street like last year?

 

[qy7400]

Yes and you can also use the lots up Ostrander Ave.

 

[username in use]

Is dinner still in front of the reef or has that moved to the hotel as well?

 

[qy7400]

Dinner is still in front of the reef tank.

 

[username in use]

Phewww! I was getting nervous there for a minute :lol:

 

[Vinny Kreyling]

Josh, How can we eliminate the crowning event of the day??

 

[username in use]

I didn't think it was changed, but then Joe said that Atlantis closes at 5 and I was thinking about all the stuff getting moved over and my terror took over my common sense

 

[MHG]

A few questions. Is there a possebility of a behind the scenes tour (for those who pay for aquarium admission? If so is there a time? I am planning on being there from 0830 to the raffle but would hate to miss a tour of the reef tank...

Alao, will the frag vendors be there the entire time? Obviously dont want to buy any frags until late in the day...like after 430...
