The Georgia Aquarium would be very expensive to have an event at. I think a room is $1500 for a 4 hour event plus $10.50 per person. It would be a good field trip. I know the Executive Director, Jeff Swanagan. The local club is the Atlanta Area Aquarium Association - http://www.atlantaaquarium.com Regards Mark Barnett FishBookStore.com -----Original Message----- From: aga-member-bounces@thekrib.com [mailto:aga-member-bounces@thekrib.com] On Behalf Of Phil Edwards Sent: Friday, December 23, 2005 9:07 AM To: aga-member@thekrib.com Subject: Re: [AGA-Member] Plantica was updated Atlanta does indeed have a huge aquarium club. It seems that one of their members has expressed interest in hosting an AGA conference there one year. I think it would be an awesome place for a con and will get talking with the AAAA folks about it. They've hosted some really big shows in the past and have a lot of experience and connections. Perhaps 2007 might be the right time for them. We'll see. :) Regards, Phil >From: Cheryl Rogers <cheryl@wilstream.com> >Reply-To: Aquatic Gardeners Association Member Chat ><aga-member@thekrib.com> >To: Aquatic Gardeners Association Member Chat <aga-member@thekrib.com> >Subject: Re: [AGA-Member] Plantica was updated >Date: Thu, 22 Dec 2005 21:59:53 -0600 > >I think there is a large Aquarium Society there, but no aquatic plant >group that I know of.
