June 26, 2021 - Member's Frag Swap

[PeetaJai]

I like to thank all those who planned this event. It was nice to meet all the reefers around the bay area. And thank You @Tim Obert for letting us use the place and for the beers & snacks.
It was a wonderful and super fun event, looking forward for the next one.

I would like to thank all my volunteers for without them this doesn't happen. Those who showed up early to help set up and help carry my tables. Those who helped with registration to get people ready, those who helped check in corals, those who helped with the swap area, those who helped clean up and carry tables back to my car. You all are often the thankless heroes that make events work, so thank you.

Thank you to Tim for hosting this event at his awesome brewery! What a venue! Thanks to bar bod for organizing and pulling off a frag swap for ~75+ participants. I had a blast and greatly enjoyed chit chatting with many of you.

Here are a few photos and video of Wills kickoff. <admins please move photos/video to appropriate place on site>

Had a great time at the event today. Thank you to everyone involved in throwing it.

Being a new member and this being my first swap. It can be a little intimidating on the forums before hand. I would assume it’s 10 times worse for a new hobbyist on top of that. I was contemplating going before I voted yes. I say this for anyone who was on the fence or maybe a little introverted like me. It was lax, fun and inviting. If you feel you won’t fit in you will because these are your like minded people. I literally stood in the corner had a whiskey only talked to a few people and it was a blast.

I would encourage anyone that is new to the club and or the hobby to mark yes on the next one.

Thank you again to everyone handling the event and everyone I had a chance to chat with.

When is the next one?

LOL - one advantage of being behind the camera is that you can’t see my COVID-19 pounds I need to shed!! We all have them so we are all equal!

thanks for the fun swap and the beer was a really nice treat. it's been a few years since i've been to a swap, but it's just as fun as i remembered it and now i'm looking forward to growing these baby frags for future swaps.

Glad you had a good time, and sorry I wasn't able to find you! Wanted to thank you for the Buttmunchers, and the awesome packaging.

 

[Krak256]

You r so funny. After the ‘bob’ burger I had plus three tasty beers I’m in for 2000 yd open water swim at Del Valle, then 2 hour bike ride followed by 10 mile run through south Livermore. Then lunch then hopefully check on how all the awesome frags I got from the frag swap are doing in my frag tank. Looking forward to next get together!!

what's AV Ulva?

I wish there would be a way for ppl to have a picture on the profile somehow. I know ppl don't wanna do it for privacy reasons. It was kinda hard to give the frags from DBTC without knowing how somebody is looking like .
