A special thanks...

Hi everyone,

There are a couple of people that everyone who attended the swap need to thank. John (novajohn01), Bill (McAllyn), and Dishan (is she on R2R?)... thank you guys so much. You guys were absolute workhorses and especially at the end of the day yesterday, I cannot thank you enough for making sure everything was put back where it needed to be. There are others that helped a lot, too, who maybe couldn't stay as long. Thank you for staying as long as you did! Phil, Greg... I'm looking at you guys.

Jay, Chris, Kevan, and Ryan... thank you guys for coordinating this thing! My vote is for you guys to be on the Frag Swap Committee, should you choose to be.

I was not able to be there for the early part of setup on Friday, so there are probably many others that I have missed or simply did things behind the scenes. Thank you, too!

I believe this frag swap was one of the best I've seen, personally. The vendors seemed very happy with the results and we had a great turnout. Lets do it again next year!

Also, someone please thank the guys who sold raffle tickets the entire day. I completely missed my shift with those, but no one would have ever known from those guys wearing it out! I apologize, I am not sure what their names were.

Thank you so much guys for helping this year. John, Cory, Bill, and Dashan were definitely in for the long haul both days.

Anthony and Scott were the ones who rocked the raffle table for most of the afternoon. Thanks so much.

And to everyone else who helped, thanks again for making this a very successful swap!

Many thanks to those that stepped up to the plate and helped. I wish I could have done more but circumstances prevented it. Kudos to all involved.

Good swap. Glad I could help a little. Got to see just how much goes into it!!

Excellent swap. Much better than the one I went to in the boro a few years back. Glad I could help with what little I did. Just happened to fall on my wifes birthday so I had to leave early.

Thanks to all who made it happen. I know year over year this year made a lot more "sense" to me and I knew a lot more this year than last year so I can appreciate it more and realize how hard it is to make this happen. This is the only swap I've ever been to but hearing the feedback from some of the vendors made me feel as if our club does a lot better of a job than many other clubs out there!

Kudos team!

 

[JOKER]

That's good to know Ryan, happy vendors means they will return!!

 

[McAllyn]

Dishan and I are just happy that we were able to help out! We had a blast last year as our first go-round, but this year was even better because, like Ryan said, we actually have an idea of what some of these critters are, and what the options/obligations are that come with them.

Looking forward to doing it all over again next year, maybe even having a table (ok, probably sharing one with someone, let's not get carried away)

The swap was impressive in regards to the vast selection of quality frags/corals/clams/etc. It really made me hate not having a tank up currently. Thanks to everyone who made this swap happen...I know what goes into events like this, no easy task for sure. I will see if I can scrounge up a glass box sooner than later...and not worry about a potential move...
