Macna

- Start date
. I'm trying to book a room, but I get conflicting info from the MACNA site. Are the dates Aug 28-Sept 2 or Aug 30-Sept 1? 
I always buy the full access pass for MACNA. The Friday reception is a party, usually with a couple of drinks and snacks. It's a great opportunity to have some fun, meet fellow reef geeks and have informal chats with the many speakers.
The Saturday banquet is a chance to enjoy a sit down dinner with 1500+ of your newest friends. There are presentations from MASNA, they award Aquarist of the Year (last year it was Kevin Kohen), they announce next years MACNA and there's a keynote speaker. This year it's Richard Pyle. There are usually prizes... everybody gets something from Marineland. Year before last I got a reef capable LED.
I've been to 8 or so MACNAs.... it's a great event, lots of cool toys to see and the speakers are usually great. The party starts Friday and runs through Sunday. Not to mention the raffles. If you think we had cool stuff at Reefstock, wait till you see the MACNA raffle.
Come play.... it's a blast.
