North Chicago Reefers

I was wondering if any N. Siders would be interested in getting together, swapping some frags, checking out the "hosts" tank and sipping suds?

I would be more than willing to host the first get together and have lets say 10 - 15 people over to my place to start this thing up. Meeting, frag trading and discussion.
If you live on the North Side and this sounds like a good night, get back to me and we'll set it up.

You guy's bring the apps, I'll supply the brewski!

I would certainly be in, although, my quantity of frags would be LIMITED.

Keep me updated.

This has nothing to do with trading or buying, just getting together! If you don't have anything to trade or don't wan't to buy, but just want to meet up with people in your area, thats what I was thinking.
If you want to trade, I'm sure someone will have something you want, but really, I think it would be very cool to just talk about our hobby for a couple of hours with people who feel the same way.
Newbies and people that have been in the hobby for awhile. I say all welcome!
Let me get some more feedback and I'll set a date. I'm excited about this, I hope some other N.Side reefers are too!

Everyone welcome liz3, I won't check licenses! I just want to get people together that like what we do and want to share ideas. A social free for all with reef tank keeping as the topic. .
