melev Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Hello everyone. That wasn't a trick question. I thought I'd make the rounds encouraging everyone within driving distance to attend our club's Next Wave conference. This annual event brings in hundreds of people each year to learn how to be better aquarists. We fly in four speakers to share their knowledge. This year we are coupling the educational event with Steve Tyree's Coral Famers Market(sm). Not only will you have the opportunity to hear what Charles Delbeek, James Fatheree, Gerald Heslinga, and Matt Pederson, but you'll have the opportunity to purchase tank raised corals of all types. Tyree's goal is to provide a huge selection of corals that are used to aquarium conditions, promoting propagation. A good group of vendors have followed in his footsteps and will be on hand to answer your questions and send you home with some new items. Here are some images from the previous Next Wave. If you'd like to sign up, there's a link at the base of this page: http://www.reefaddicts.com/entry.php/1159-Next-Wave-2010 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melev Posted December 31, 2010 Author Share Posted December 31, 2010 The best thing you can do then is sign up now and mark that date on your calendar so nothing can interfere with your plans to attend. I've heard a lot of excuses and reasons why people missed it, and the main reason is because they waited and didn't get around to it, only to forget until it was too late. I paid for my own entry over a month ago, and know I'll be there. Same with MACNA each year, I pay a year in advance. And I never miss it.

Will Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 hmmmm. ........ would it be worth it? my mom lives in plano, but that would be a far drive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melev Posted January 12, 2011 Author Share Posted January 12, 2011 Totally worth it. Plus you can visit your mom! Drive up Friday night, have dinner with her, then Saturday enjoy Next Wave and the Coral Farmers Market. Head home with new frags, and your mom will be happy too.
