R2R Member R2Reef & Meet! What do you think?

[noelseba1]

That sounds great

 

[mayday0237]

We have been thinking of ways to build more community between the members of R2R and the reefing community as a whole. One thing that we are thinking about is maybe setting up some R2R Member meet ups and call it a R2Reef & Meet!

The basic idea is to have a host home or location in various parts of the world where members can meet one another on a certain day, get free R2R swag, win prizes, eat and talk reefs for a couple hours.

Does this sound like something that would interest you if it were close to you?

How close would it need to be?

Thanks!

I would also be up for something like this......

Definitely should be anonymous. Masquerade with fish masks. Fish people, can be dangerous.

Case and point this kid hunting his enemies with his pet shark.

but this makes 12, and will provide the necessary amenity to make it home safely.

Interested... willing to drive 4 hours, like nyc. Or near an airport, get a cheap flight in

 

[Devaji]

love this idea, most of us living in the Rockies would have to drive 4-8hrs to get anywhere.
maybe prizes for each region? each area could live stream it then we can have a world wide R2R meet up!

OR just get a place in Vegas for the annual * FREE* R2R meetup cheap flights in.
I bet if we start a nonprofit for reef conservation we might be able to get some sponsors.
just a thought not trying to make this into a reefaplozua or MACNA.

This sounds like a lot of fun. There are countless places in Central Florida for a meet up.

LOL, I'm not saying this isn't a great idea, and I would certainly be in, but this thread is from 2018...

 

[Samina]

Cool idea, similar to a local club or swap. Interested... now to find the time haha

HAHA winner winner chicken dinner.
OK who brought it back to life with out telling us??

@revhtree #MODS did this idea die? Sounds like a great idea.

 

[reefwiser]

David does this at all the major reef shows. We have a booth and you can win prizes and meet others on the forum.

 

[Rexless]

Great Idea! Just a thought...Perhaps we can start off with factions to meet up based on convenient locations to everyone.

 

[Fishwife]

Would drive a couple hours for a fun event like this. Not much usually going on in Central Oregon.

 

[RichtheReefer21]

Last year i hosted a "richapalooza" had a great showing, about 10 reefers from all corners of new england. Was the start of beautiful friendships across the board. Cant wait for the post-covid round 2. Perhaps a Fudsapalooza! @Fudsey

 

[Lowell Lemon]

Sounds good to me!

 

[AcroNem]

Within driving distance (a day) I'm totally up for this! I'd love to meet you guys

 

[C1ownfish]

[CanuckReefer]
