Rev- You know it's going to be fun because I will be there! :bigsmile:

This is a fairly new club we have up in Cleveland, but we have a lot of old time, experienced hobbyists and plenty of experience amongst us in putting on a great frag swap. This one should be really sweet!

The swap is now (6) weeks away, and is shaping up to be a spectacular event!

Some excellent vendors have already made the commitment to participate, and more are to be listed soon. If you would like more information on participating as a vendor or “Early Bird Hobbyist”, please visit LearClub.com for more info. Spots are filling up fast.

If you haven’t checked out the recently updated raffle page, we’ve received some very generous donations so far. Everything from a full tank setup, a nice skimmer, fish food and much more. This is looking to possibly be one of the largest swap raffles around.
Visit; LearClub.com Raffle for more info, and item descriptions.

FragSwapper is now up and running for hobbyists and vendors to arrange presales.
Visit; FragSwapper.com to register (registration or the use of FragSwapper is not required to participate at the event)

We hope to see everyone make the trip. This will be an event you don’t want to miss.

*PLEASE NOTE: LEAR (Lake Erie Advanced Reefers) is a new club in the Cleveland, OH area. We are in no way affiliated with C-SEA, the Cleveland Saltwater Enthusiasts, which is another club in the area. There has been some confusion regarding this.

Our first annual Frag Fest is getting even bigger!!! About 3049 Sq. Ft. bigger to be exact.

Due to the rapid increase in requests to participate in this year’s event the club has made the decision to book the adjacent room more than doubling the size of the venue.

Lots of new vendors added over the weekend!

Just a reminder about hobbyist “Early Bird Specialsâ€:
General admission participants will NOT be able to set-up a tank/system, or have electrical access. An "Early Bird Special" must be purchased in advance to set up a holding/display tank w/ water, and have electrical access.
The fee for an “Early Bird Special†is only $30 for a 4’ table section w/ electrical access, and early admittance at 10:00am.

Early Birds are in limited quantity and selling fast! Reserve your spot now before they are all gone.

Visit: www.LearClub.com to see the latest updates, and for more info on the event.

Tomorrow’s the big day.

Doors open at 12:00p for general admission, and the raffle is set to start at 2:30p.

We are expecting an excellent turnout. Just like any other swap the first half hour or so will be a madhouse with people rushing through the door anxious to get set up and start selling. So please be patient and courteous to your fellow hobbyists until everyone gets settled in.

We will have a good amount of open tables available to the general admission hobbyist.

To make things a little easier to locate swappers there will be a “Swap Map†located centrally at the event. Hobbyists are encouraged to utilize this map by filling your name/username in the slot corresponding your location that you have chosen to “set-up shopâ€.

Below is an example of what the map may look like.

We look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow.
