NJRC Frag Swap & Symposium

[JohnS_323]

New Jersey Reefers Club is preparing for our second annual Frag Swap & Symposium. For those of you who were there last year it will be more than twice the size! We've got a great speaker lineup from around the country and we're recruiting local stores, On-line retailers, and local area Fraggers as vendors for the swap. We expect to have more than 30 vendors, and are well on our way. We've gotten some excellent donations thus far with far more on their way. The raffles should be great.



To anyone who keeps a frag system, I suggest getting a table (or 1/2 or sharing a table with another reefer)! With a table you'll be able to setup a tank and you'll be marked on the map. Buyers will know where to find you and the cost of the booth is easily covered by the frags you'll sell.

Hope to see you all there!

Well, we're just about a month away from this years Frag Swap and I thought it would be nice to revive some photo's from last year's event. From the looks of things, this year is shaping up to be even BIGGER and BETTER! We have more than twice the floor space and have already doubled the number vendors. With only 4 spots left, we're definitely looking at a sell-out.

Where else could you get 3 GREAT speakers, access to more than 40 of the top livestock and dry good retailers in the industry, an awesome NY Deli Style Lunch and the possibility of winning some great raffle items?. And all that for only $25! Take a look at these pics and ask yourself "How can I possibly miss out on that!"

We look forward to this presentation and thank IceCap for bringing Anthony out to speak to us on such an important issue.
