    Suggest where you guys want to get together at.  I was thinking something with food and beer.  Just a social gathering to talk tanks and see what we can do with our area.

    There is a very good 95% chance I can come to this one :)

    *raises fist at whoever scheduled frag swap*

    I am open to almost anyplace- but central would be best. Are we thinking lunch time or dinner time?

    Doesn't matter what time, I'm thinking maybe around the evening maybe. The last two meetings I have scheduled, no one showed up. The lack of participation being one of the main reasons we have decided to change where fall fest is at this year.

    Hey, Robin! Haven't seen you post in a while. You are busy enough with BNARC as is don't worry about it.

    One can never have too many reefing friends or belong to too many clubs!! I need to pay my dues it seems!

    I really would love to get together with some of you guys so I hope that I can attend something in the future. What is the definate date for the swap this fall?

    Hey Robyn

    Fall Fest this year will be in Marion (a northern suburb of Cedar Rapids) at the Marion Arts & Environment Center on November 14th. We are still working out the time and will have it posted soon, but it will probably be 11 to 4 or Noon to 5. Due to the economy, we've scaled back a bit and will only have 2 speakers: Randy Reed and someone else (possibly Calfo if we decide we can afford him).

    This years event will also be a little less expensive. Admission is only $5 and includes speaker pass. Sellers can buy a spot for only $15 per 1/2 table.

    I like the lower admission, I think it helps to get people in the door, especially in the current economic climate. I personally did not like the parking situation at the Isle, although the facility was very nice. I will mark the date on the calendar and work on drumming up other sellers within BNARC if I can!! BNARCs event is Oct 10th and I will be posting information on it soon. I think it's really important that clubs help each other as we are all here for the good of the hobby. Looking forward to seeing you guys soon. I wish I wasn't so far away!

    I'm up for that Rick. I've been unloading stuff on ebay so I'll have some extra cash.

    Rick and I were thinking about going last year, but we didn't find out earlier enough since we both just joined this site weeks before the BNARC swap.

    How many people do you think we can get to go then if we get a bus.

    I still have the full QC funds available.
