I didn't get everything done today I had planned so I don't think I'm heading up....:twised: hope everyone has a great time and someone posts pics of the event!

14 hours to go.

everthing is done but the crying, time to start planning FFV :mrgreen:

AND THE FIGHT FOR FRAGS :boxing:

You know what though?

All frags are readily available from my suppliers. So they can be ordered for future purchases.

Over the year I have made so many new contacts, I couldn't use them all.

Enuff said, time to chill out for the night.

Kick back, have a tall cool one & chill ken, see you tomorrow :biggrin:

My 13 year old daughter will be attending. She isn't a reefer yet, just in the learning stages so far. (She currently has 2 freshwater tanks.)

Good to see, that's the future in reefing.

That's why I take time to speak and donate to schools.

low if 13, high of 25, not bad if it holds up (fingers crossed)

Will be my first time attending, can't wait to see what you guys all have going on tomorrow :biggrin:

2.5 hours till FragFest

Thanks Ken for an awesome day! It was good to see everyone out and sell off a bunch of our mushrooms, Kenya trees and GSP. Just wish I could have gotten some blue eyes blondes while we were there.

Adam and Danielle

Thank you Ken for a great event! It was my first Salty event and I loved it!! I will totally be in attendance for the next one!

Awesome event Ken, I cannot wait for the next one. Managed to get myself a few new pieces and thin the wallet out even more.

Are we going to get a list of who won what for the raffle?:razz:

Thank you so much ken for this event. I finally Got the Zoa's I've been looking for while now. I definitely would come again.

Sorry I missed most of you, I didn't end up making it there until around 2:30 but I still got what I came for despite missing the morning rush. Thanks Ken for the great event and it was nice seeing you and the awesome staff again!

frag fest
 

Thank you for fantastic hospitality Ken, the event was great.

Thank you, Ken and staff at BWA, for putting on another winner of FF4. We had great fun meeting everyone, and a chance to sell and also acquire new frags to try out!! Store looked awesome and tons of great stuff with rock-bottom prices! Feeling so sorry for those of you who missed it this year.

Thank you for all attending, it's you that make the event great, and better every year.

I would like to send out a big thank you to my staff and all the volunteers that rolled up their sleeves for us. There are too many to thank, you all know I appreciate your help.

To the vendors, thank you for attending. I am happy to see more and more of you every year. Thank you for the door prizes. A big thank you to the following for your donations.

We had a total of 25 door prizes. I will be posting the winners tomorrow, as I am too tuckered right now. The prizes were randomly numbered 1-25, and the tickets were picked by different individuals not knowing what the prizes were to make it as fair as possible.

Here is to FFV-2013

Ken

Thanks to Ken and everyone who made this event happen. However, now I have buyers' remorse! Meaning and I hope there is some one out there who can help me. Today, there was a vendor selling some rock outside in the parking lot by the "Kg" at $5. I saw some nice pieces but in the end didn't get any. So now I'm like why didn't I get one or two rock etc.. If anyone know who this guy is or if you are the guy, send me you info please because I would like to get some rock from you
thanks
Bruce

Harvey (mr_alberta) had a big bin of rock he was selling from Marine Aquaria.

Kudos to Ken & staff, well done as always!!

Nice to see a great turn out & some great weather as well. Enjoyed talking with everyone I don't get to see often especially Mike ( esquire ) thanks for the shirts & hat, very unexpected.

frag rest
 

I was there across from the entrance of the store,it might have been me not sure but it wasnt for sale yet as it is not cured yet.

thanks Ken.....great shindig!....I think this was the biggest turnout so far....

If this really happened, you'd think there would be pictures.....:)

My wife does not need the photo evidence of just how much money we spent there today... :neutral:

I dont think anyone was really thinking of pics, I think we were all in shock of the AMAZING weather we got but it DID happen & you missed it Brad. AND you can't say it would be to far away since Esquire came down from Yellowknife just to attend :razz:

I wish I could have taken pictures, but everytime I had a spare moment I was pulled in 4 different directions.

I'm sure someone got some

Usually I am the someone who ends up taking and posting pic's of this event (I did the past 3 times) but I was so busy talking to everyone and looking at everything that I totally forgot :redface: Sorry guys!

It was a blast like always and I even got some cool stuff too :mrgreen:

Thanks for the event Ken.

Thanks for the awesome weather....


and Please no FF5 - I don't want to spend anymore money.. Please please.. Well just don't be so out on advertising it hahaha.

What a mess to clean up, should have it cleaned up in a few days.

I'll extend the sales for everything for the rest of the week for anyone that missed out. There might be even a few suprises, as I need to reorganize the tanks.

Thanks again for all that helped and attended. It was a blast.

Ken

Door prize
 

Has the door prize drawn?

Thanks Ken for the awesome event. Maybe we should have it TWICE a year. :mrgreen:

We thought of that in the past, but it would be middle of winter and wouldn't need to be hosted indoors.

Sorry for the delay in posting of the draw winners. Will be posted shortly as I do not have the list with me.

Freshwater people have an auction twice a year at the high park community center. That could totally be doable with frags.

It fits at least 200 people

What a difference a day makes, it looks horrible out here today.

We got lucky.
