Emerald525 Posted August 19, 2010 Author Share Posted August 19, 2010 Bump for the evening crowd! Thanks everyone we are now up to $605 dollars!(clap) It's not too late to get your tickets. I will post the winning numbers on Saturday for those who can't make the meeting and give the unclaimed winners a week before redrawing so even if you are going to be out of town, you would still have time to claim your prize. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emerald525 Posted August 21, 2010 Author Share Posted August 21, 2010 I will post them hopefully Saturday when I get home from the Barbecue. Sunday at the latest I don't like to keep people in suspense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean In a Box Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Hey guys, after the BBQ stop by OIAB, it's on the way back into Portland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald525 Posted August 21, 2010 Author Share Posted August 21, 2010 Perry I was thinking we could just send the winner your way. I have no room on the sandbed for your plate and I would hate for something so beautiful to be stung. I already lost 1/2 of one of my scolys to a chalice.

Kshack Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Kim (not Beth), If you like, you can bring the frags to the BBQ. I have a separate quarantine tank, so it will not be a problem. OIB is on the way. Only problem would be stress on the corals for those that win and are not present (multiple transfers). Ken (actually Kim...ask me about that at the BBQ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken (actually Kim...ask me about that at the BBQ) Yeah, I thought about bringing the prizes Ken, that's a nice offer but that was my thought too. A large number of people who bought tickets are not going to be at the meeting and I wouldn't want to stress the corals out by bagging them taking them out bagging them again if they were not present. I don't have the prizes from Jody yet. I'm picking those up next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grassi Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 I would like to know where to pickup the corals I'm gonna win )) There is still time for buying more winning tickets bump! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald525 Posted August 21, 2010 Author Share Posted August 21, 2010 I would like to know where to pickup the corals I'm gonna win )) There is still time for buying more winning tickets bump! Great question Alex! I have the prizes from Garrett. I'm not taking them to the meeting because many of the ticket buyers will not be there and I do not want to cause the corals unneeded stress. You can pick them up at my place in the SE. For Jody's prizes I will be picking up those next weekend except for the Tyree watermelon frag which needs more time to settle before Jody can frag it. Perry still has the fungia plate and the winner can go pick it up or we can try to figure out arrangements. I have no room on my sandbed for that. Also for those who may not have room for certain things but want to donate anyway, you can always donate your winning frag to the Tanks for Teacher program Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean In a Box Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 The winner of the Fungia can come by and pick up from us. Not a problem. If unable to and needs someone else to swing by that's not a problem either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
