Count me in, and my wife (and fellow reef-addict) Denise as well.

spstimie · 04/27/2008, 11:01 PM

Always Saturdays....Hmmm...Maybe I can leave work for a little while. How long will the tour be?

jaw969 · 04/27/2008, 11:47 PM

I believe it is about 1-2 hrs.............

reefmaister · 04/28/2008, 02:19 PM

they have one reef tank that is absolutely amazing. do you think they'd waive admission if we made a donation or two to their tanks? LOL

68RUSTANG · 04/28/2008, 02:22 PM

Count me in also.

Can I bring my SCUBA gear?

Hi Shawn, Couldn't it be considered a continuing education course?

hudson2212 · 05/06/2008, 07:00 PM

I am a member of "that other group" would I be allowed to attend?

If so and it is not cost prohibitive, My wife and I would go.

rmougey · 05/06/2008, 11:41 PM

I'm a member of that other group too... I guess if we make an exception for me, we have to make one for everyone.

It sounds like a fun time.

P.S. - You may have to give us detailed info, like maybe your name and e-mail address. Drop a note to d.a.r.c@comcast.net.

freddie40 · 05/08/2008, 08:39 AM

So, I have set everything up. The cost will be $11.95 per person plus parking (normal cost is $13.95 + $25 for a behind the scenes tour). Since we will need to contact then if we have more than 25 people (so they can have extra staff) please lmk in this thread that you are coming. Please be there 15-20 minutes ahead of time so we can be organized by 1:00pm.

Please pay me the money and I will pay for the group. We have already put a deposit down.

I count 9 people as of now.

Thanks,

Dave

hudson2212 · 05/08/2008, 01:53 PM

If you do not have me down for two already, please do so.

Thanks for organizing.

freddie40 · 05/08/2008, 01:54 PM

Dave
