Spring Fest [Mar 11, 2017] Spring Fest 2017! (Des Moines, IA)

@Actuary thanks for noting that, what we decided early on was to have GIRS handle all saltwater-related vendors (mainly, coral vendors) and have CEACich handle all freshwater vendors, rather than try to have that all done by one person for both clubs. The GIRS vendors on the left are a mixture of coral vendors and non-coral vendors (dry goods, fish, clean up crews, etc) and the CEACich vendors are a mixture of commercial and hobbyists, etc.

GIRS Member hobbyists are not currently listed on that graphic as we didn't have any locked into tables when that got made. In the past, many GIRS hobbyists wait until the fest is closer to sign up for a spot so that's why you don't see them listed on that graphic - just the GIRS Premium Members. Floor space is still available for GIRS member hobbyists to bring a 20g tank or some dry goods!!

There is a bit of construction at the fairgrounds: here is how to get to the parking lot. If you come from University, just ignore the detour sign that tells you to turn right - that is there to keep the locals from driving like mad hatters around the Knapp building!
