Get together at Coral Connection

[michaelg]

Heads up-

I am arranging an after hours meeting for the group at Coral Connection in Rockville.  Easy to get to from i-270.  They have had killer sps in the last couple of visits I have made.  Leon has also been selling frags (some captive, some from busted up wild corals), for $5!  His prices vary sometimes though- but if you go, tell him you heard about the shop from WAMAS.

 

Anyhow- general plan is for a Sunday, at 6:00 when the shop closes (or after 8:00 on Saturday)..  Thought a Sunday meeting might help a few people who have other obligations on Saturdays.  

 

This will be an open meeting- as hopefully some store customers will come as well.  Beverages and Snacks. I am trying to arrange it after he gets a large shipment.  They are cool about bringing things for us to trade amonst ourselves.

 

Stay Tuned!

 

I am planning on doing similar things with some of the other stores as well.  At meetings, we don't have quite enough general chat time, as I'm always making you guys listen to speakers.

Sounds like a great idea.  Can you post the directions or address for Coral Connection.  Wouldn't mind checking the place out.

[geofloors]

Sounds like a great idea. Coral connection used to be "Marine Scene" right? If it's for a Sunday evening try not to make it on the first Sunday of the month, because of CMAS meetings. If that's the only choice than I would still attend if possible.

Thanks Tgallo! I was drawing a blank on the old name. I've been to the old store a few times but couldn't remember the name.

Directions from I-270

 

Take ext 8, shady grove road heading east.  head south staying in the left lane on Rockville pike. Make a U-turn where the metro station is and come back up the pike.

It will be on you right side- in the strip plaza with Midas (orange sign for Midas).  It is a couple of stores down.

So whats the plan?

 

Will there be a meeting a @ coral connections tonight (Saturday) or September 22 (Sunday)?

[dgasmd]

So, is it today sunday or what????

[michaelg]

Sorry for the confusion.  I should have been a little clearer on when.  Still setting a date.  Will likely be early October.  I should get over there this week and finalize something with Leon.
