Northcoast members annual frag swap

northbay-reefer · #1 01/10/2008, 06:05 PM

Guys and Gals,

Lets have a big Northcoast reefers frag swap in June

how about we brain storm on this idea so we can have it planned ahead of time and opcourse the local vendors are invited to attend or donnation to the raffle would be welcome too.

1, how many frags does each members need to bring to qualify for the swap (since our club is small, maybe each person bring atleast 4 frags ?)

2, How does a member qualify for the swap ?

3, Are we going to use some of our funds to buy some cool stuff and frag'em up and add to the swap (like the montis that Northbay is bringing in)or James at Ceasar can order a box of stuff for us

4, create a list of corals that we think are cool and then try to have those at the swap?

5, should be play a texas holdem elimination tournament ahead of time to determine picking orders ?

I think this should be alot of fun, so lets plan it out. Please let me know what you all think so if their is alot if interest on this then we can set one up.

Hopefully I will live in the area by then, LOL. If not, mind if I come anyhow?
I like the Hold'em idea, but would kinda suck if you didn't know how to play and that determined your picking order. Do you guys play?

On a similar topic, MARS is having a swap on March 1st, and all clubs are welcome, provided you drive to Sac.

Jeremy you don't have to know how to play poker to join

as for being a Northcoast member, I think you already is??

I'll be there in March for sure, will you?

I know how to play, but will need to find others that also play when I move.
As for march, I'll be there.

Tom are you going to take the lead in Planning? I like your ideas.
The poker should be a seperate smaller event though. Private Party!!

Just a FYI, BAR is also looing into possiably doing a summer regional swap. IIRC they are discussing this at the BOD meeting tomorrow

June was one of the months I heard being kicked around.

Mike sure, I'll take the lead on this and we can talk about it more between us to come up with different ideas.

Gres, I guess then whom ever comes up with the date first will win that date right ???

if you guys can give me your potential date then we can try to avoid it, but it will be voted by our members as far as our date is concerned.

I actually don't have anything to do with BAR other then being a sponsor

It was just mentioned to me the other week they're considerring another. I'll be at the BOD meeting though and will report back here if they do get a date

The last few have had over 200 people in attendance, one reaching over 300

Gres, I have been to one of those and was very impressed so I am looking forward to attend the one in June. Yeah please let me know of the date because I am sure that we will have more members representing Northcoast this time around.
