I'd be interested in a St. Louis convention, definitely. From: mhellweg511@charter.net To: aga-mcm@thekrib.com Date: Tue, 7 Jul 2009 14:28:15 -0500 Subject: Re: [AGA-mcm] Fw: 2008 DVD Speaking of the Convention DVD, that reminds me. My local club, the
Missouri Aquarium Society, Inc. (MASI) is interested in hosting an
AGA convention or helping the AGA to put one on here in St. Louis. We
were thinking of 2010 or 2012. Is there any interest in hosting one here
in the middle of the US?
Along with a good sized local club heavily into aquatic plants and planted
tanks, we have a large number of active hobbyists who are also active
volunteers and we have a sound treasury. We have cheap(er)
flights from either coast and one day driving distance for nearly 40% of the US
population, we've got one of the top zoos in the country (and it's free!) one
of the top botanical gardens in the world, and many other interesting
things to do....plus a choice of very nice convention hotels close to the
airport and major interstate highways that have hosted aquatic conventions
before (ACA - 3 x, AKA - 2 x, IFGA and IBC once each).
