Hi Steven;

Yes, we'll be looking for you. And for anyone else who is reading, we still have a few Banquet seats available. We intentionally gave the hotel a higher count this year, so we may even have a few to sell at the door.

So hurry over to www.theimac.org and sign up for the LAST IMAC. Yes, there won't be any more after this year. We hope to see you in Chicago May 30, 31 and June 1.

Cheers,

Dennis

Besides that there will be a Big Trade Show, a Gala Banquet, a Speakers' Reception and a Great Raffle. So hurry over to www.theimac.org and get in on what will be my last IMAC. Yes, I am stepping down after this year. I have built up many great friendships over the years and I will miss all of you who have attended several IMACs. I cherish those friendships and I thank you for your support. I hope to see you one more time.

Happy Reefkeeping,

Dennis

Hi Everybody;

Have you heard about IMAC? You probably have. It is one of the biggest hobbyist conferences in the country. Next year it will be in Chicago on May 30, 31 and June 1. Here is the Speaker List:

Dr. Sanjay Joshi

Dr. Ron Shimek (2 presentations)

Dr. Adelaide Rhodes

Mark Schick

Tullio Dell Aquila

Tom Frakes

Robert “Bob” Fenner

In addition to many of the regulars you find at other aquarium conferences, you will find many “new” names on the list since IMAC tries to bring fresh faces to the aquarium circuit. And IMAC gives them a full hour to talk with a 20 minute Q&A and doesn’t rush them off after 45 minutes.

And there will also be a “behind-the-scenes” tour of the Shedd Aquarium, a tour of LFS, a Speakers’ Reception, a Banquet and a Huge Raffle.

It is at a pretty good rate right now at $125 but for members of the Marine Depot Board we are offering a special at $99 good until the end of November. So get over to www.theimac.org and sign up for this special while it is still good. You will have to scroll down past the regular registration to find it and enter the name of this Board.

We hope to see you in Chicago in May. It’s a great opportunity to meet up with other reef addicts and speakers in a social atmosphere.

Happy Reefkeeping,

Dennis
