Origami August 27, 2014 Share August 27, 2014 What's macna? Read the post in the Member Discussion or Club News forums. "For those that don't know exactly what a MACNA is: It's one of the largest reefing exhibition / education venues of its kind in the entire world. It's a multi-day experience drawing hobbyists from around the country and from overseas to hear up to three days worth of speakers delivering on topics of interest to the community. It also draws hundreds of sponsors and exhibitors from all corners of this hobby: Equipment manufacturers, retailers, drygoods providers, livestock providers, internet and print media, and conservation organizations to name a few."

davelin315 August 27, 2014 Share August 27, 2014 Dang Tom, $125/night in DC is awesome! What's parking? Right now $30 and we're also looking at the possibility of some off-site parking. This will be an on-going process as we work through and determine what we can and cannot do. Still lots of work ahead of us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan August 27, 2014 Share August 27, 2014 (edited) I took the liberty of sharing the announcement from Advanced Aquarists on a few fb groups. Eh, not too many people.

Jan August 27, 2014 Share August 27, 2014 What MACNA app, Dave? Where can I find it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Origami August 27, 2014 Share August 27, 2014 What MACNA app, Dave? Where can I find it? For 2014, it's here. We'll do something similar for 2015, but not now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Origami August 27, 2014 Share August 27, 2014 Can we have our Wamas meet there? I hope that enough of us will be there that we can consider it an informal gathering of sorts. I took the liberty of sharing the announcement from Advanced Aquarists on a few fb groups. Eh, not too many people. Just some 4,000+ members Yay! Thanks, Jan.

Squishie89 August 27, 2014 Share August 27, 2014 Oh man I get to meet SO many awesome people next year, Like Rev from R2R!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveS August 27, 2014 Share August 27, 2014 For 2014, it's here. We'll do something similar for 2015, but not now. If you download the 2014 version, please provide feedback on it. Doing conference app for MACNA was our idea that Denver picked up on at the last minute. That's ok because it allows us to treat 2014 as a test run for ours.

That's ok because it allows us to treat 2014 as a test run for ours. True story. But the team in Denver has been excellent to work with and provided us with a lot of infrastructure and expertise to help get us going. We're very pleased to have been able to help in any small way that we could to bring this new element to the party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was trying to stress how the feedback to Denver's app will be so directly relevant to making ours better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was trying to stress how the feedback to Denver's app will be so directly relevant to making ours better. I understood. I just wanted to make sure that everybody else in this General Forum did. I've had fun with the app already. It's great to see what it can do and how it can be used effectively. We're already seeing exhibitors and hobbyists participating full throttle. The app really helps to bind the participants together and, for those that don't go, it's a window into what's going on in real-time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bmax August 27, 2014 Share August 27, 2014 Congratulations WAMAS!!!!! A big thanks to everyone involved that made this happen. I was soooo bummed that I couldn't make it to Denver this time around--now this!!!!!!!!! What fantastic news; I couldn't be more excited! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanM August 27, 2014 Share August 27, 2014 Can't we just do it in, like, November 2014 instead? Sept 2015 is too long to wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuffyGeos August 27, 2014 Share August 27, 2014 Oh my gosh.........I guess I have to start socking away money in a MACNA fund!...............The goodies, the goodies, the goodies! I went to the one in (I think) 2005 when we had it in Crystal City.....It was overwhelming. Such a candy store Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prunfarm August 27, 2014 Share August 27, 2014 $125 for a room is decent, but don't forget the 14.5% hotel tax. Also commercial parking lots have an 18% tax. Just a heads up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
