Bay Area Reefers is proud to announce Bob Fenner, the author of "The Conscientious Marine Aquarist," as our featured speaker for our March meeting.

 

[LeviT]

Very cool.

 

[bondolo]

Good thing we have lots of notice. It's going to take me that long just to even think up worthy questions!

 

[gimmito]

I wanted to give everybody plenty of time to circle their calendars and pack the room for Bob.

Bob will be sharing about his recent experiences setting up a new collection station in Fiji...as well as his 40+ years in the hobby.

 

[lattehiatus]

I'm looking forward to seeing the man! Some of the WetWetMedia "posts" are quite humorous. :bigsmile:

 

[iCon]

Wow, good job Jim. Will there be a raffle?

 

[gimmito]

Wow, good job Jim. Will there be a raffle?

We are getting some pretty cool stuff donated from our sponsors.

That is great! A few years ago, Bob showed our reef club in San Diego lots of amazing slides that he had taken over the years.

Bob spoke at our club meeting when i was lived in Vegas. A very good speaker that was fun to listen too

 

[houser]

OK only a few more days get pumped up. Let's get a big turnout for this one. Should be fun!

 

[Kensington Reefer]

Even I have it on my calendar!!

 

[Not_Now_John]

I'm so pumped I'm bringing two Eheims!

 

[gimmito]

We will have some signed books of The Conscientious Marine Aquarist for the raffle as well as a new 1" Sea Swirl courtesy of Ed of Aquarium Currents.

 

[houser]

I'm not going to lie I might have to drop an extra $20 in there I wouldn't mind trying that sea-swirl. See if any of that old luck is still there...

 

[bondolo]

Serendipitous sweepstakes selection secures Sea Swirl! (by the sea shore)

well played good sir

 

[Apon]

I hope we won't have those projector problems again in this room? did anyone ask Bob what he is bringing? maybe bring the old backup BAR projector too?

 

[gimmito]

Good idea Arnold...this is what Bob gave me:

"I just need a projector and screen... have a PC, Win 7, Ofc. 2010 ppt... my own pointer w/ new batteries. Will bring along my thumb drive just in case. B"

 

[Kensington Reefer]

I can't wait for this talk
I'm tired of seeing that picture every time I hit the home
