We started a discussion about 2025 activities / events at the holiday party, so let's continue here. As a club, the frag swap events are the most well attended, so we will host at least two for the year. For the poll - select up to 3 ideas. More detail for each of these options will follow in the thread. There is an "other" category, for ideas that are not listed. If other is selected, please post in the thread for discussion. Others can simply like the post and if it proves popular, through likes, it will be added to the poll for voting. All feedback is welcome and the poll will last for 30 days. Members can change their votes at any time. I'm looking forward to the new year and seeing everyone at a future event!
ARC member Feedback - ARC Events for 2025
- Thread starter Cook
- Start date
True Frag Swap with Fragging Workshop and Grow Out Contest - This is a couple of ideas rolled into one. Members would bring corals to swap / give away to other members. ARC would conduct a demonstration of different ways to frag corals, and make available a selection of fragged corals for members to use in a grow out contest.
Member Tank Tour - Just what it says. ARC would rent a bus and tour 3-5 members homes to share their tanks. We would look for ideas to have fun along the way - Reef Bingo anyone?
Aquascaping class - An interactive event where ARC or an expert demonstrates what makes a successful Aquascape with do's and don'ts as well as things to consider in the design phase.
Reef Tank Sponsorship - Elderly Care Home - ARC would donate funds / equipment and time to supply an elderly care home with a Saltwater Fish tank. The major hurdle to this one in my opinion is finding a group of volunteers to maintain the tank.
Hydros Introduction and programming - We have given away a number of starter packs in the last year and with CoralVue's Hydros equipment becoming a popular alternative to Apex, this makes a lot of sense. Could be an in person event or a virtual event with an expert.
Seachem Factory Tour - Seachem is local to the Atlanta Area
Secret Valentine's Day Gift swap - ARC would collect members that wanted participate and assign accordingly? Open to suggestions on this one.
Kid's Coral Art Contest - Something fun for the Future Reefers in our lives.
