Rochester, NY museum frag meet June 7th

[museumguy]

Its official! The Strong National Museum of Play will be hosting a meeting of the Upstate Reef Society (Sountern Tier reefers are of course welcome too!!) on Sunday, June 7th from 5:30pm to 8:30pm.

We will be supplying tables and chairs for anyone that would like to setup display tanks for their goods, but you will have to BYOT (bring your own tank).

Highlights of the night will include:
-A behind the scenes tour of our new 1700g tank
-A demonstration done by Tom Woods from The Reef Shoppe
-A raffle for prizes and gift certificates
-A chance to meet me!
-And so much more!

So break out your fragging tools, grab your super glue and get ready to trade, spend and deal!

Please note that although children are welcomed to attend, the museum exhibits will be closed and off limits during the meet. Feel free to come to the museum for a fun filled day, our exhibits are open 12pm-5pm on Sundays, go and get some dinner from any of Rochester's fine restaurants then come back for some great reefkeeping fun!

There is no fee to attend, but any donations given would go directly to maintaining the exhibits.

Hope to see you all June 7th!

So AWESOME! I'm definately going to try to get up there! I love the Strong Museum (so do my kids!), and always rush right to the tanks to check out whats different in them. I do like taking my kids up there, but i think i have even more fun than they do playing through the whole place. The last time i went up, i had plans to check out The Reef Shoppe and Caribbean Forest, but we stayed in the Museum too long, and my kids and wife ended up falling asleep on the ride home. I'm from Elmira Heights, and i'll try to get a couple of my reefing friends to join me on the trip up there. Also my Birthday is June 15th, so maybe i can pick out my own presents when i'm there.

Is anyone else from the area going? Post here and let me know. Maybe we could all carpool and save on a little gas

I plan on going for the day with my wife and kids but that will pretty much fill the van the way we travel so carpooling is out. We plan to visit the museum during the day, have dinner, and then stop by the meet.

I just talked to my wife and we are doing the same Dave. I guess carpooling is out for me as well. I'm definately excited! I do have some stuff to start fragging, but no tank to take it up there in, so i'll probably be posting my stuff on here sometime soon
