Reef meet/frag fest

[denny_C]

Just want to say thanks to all those who attended it was def an awesome day , we are not sure exactly how many attended but are estimating a couple hundred and possibly more.

Since this was our first time setting up something like this we had a few set back like the power failures and computer systems going down lol but we managed to pull through.

Big thanks to everyone who volunteered and to those who help setup up and clean.

I'm sure we will be doing this again next year and will have a lot more time to plan it all out


Thanks from all of us at concept and we are glad you all had fun ,we know we sure did

Cheers

Denny

Ya was a great time. Nice putting some faces to the names. Really enjoyed the day and getting to know some hobbyists/vendors better.
Thanks to Concepts for getting me setup with tank space and for hosting this great event. Concept put allot of time, effort and resources into the day so hats off to them! Ruth thanks for your immaculate bagging skills. Denny, what can a guy say about Denny... Lol. It's always a joy bud! Thanks again for everything. Alex, was great to have you here for this event, my wife and I really enjoyed spending the day with you getting to know you better both as Alex aka frag cave and as Alex just a really cool dude! Thanks to the breeders of those beautiful little neon gobies. Doing great in there new home! And thanks to anyone else who made the event possible and to those I happened to get the pleasure of meeting while there!
One of the coolest experiences for me was sitting and chatting with an older gentleman who happened to be buying a few frags from me. He was sharing with me about his entry into the hobby as he had recently taken over his daughters system. I really enjoyed the chat with this guy! I noticed him spend quite a few hours at the event, talking with others, looking around in all the tanks and all the equipment, just seemingly thoroughly engaged in his new found hobby. He looked like a little kid just so excited! Was a treat! Met some really great people throught the day.

Was a great day all around. Can't wait till next years event!
