badxgillen Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 What do we have for September gatherings you ask? Well, it has been a while since we made it up to North Mississippi to visit our friends at Moloko's so we decided to have a casual meet and greet at this sponsors awesome reef themed pub. If you have not been there you are missing out on a very unique establishment. This will be a perfect mingling opportunity prior to next months upcoming big Frag Fest event. We can chill out, relax, and talk salt or just get to know each other more... A far cry from the hustle and bustle of the Expos. Being a meet and greet situation I think it would make sense to get a frag swap going on, I know many of us have some corals to trim and being two weeks away it makes for an ideal heal time on any of those fresh cuts. And since the shindig doesn't start until 4 it will give us a chance to shop at some of the Portland area saltwater stores prior, so bring a small cooler. The address is-- 3967 N Mississippi Ave, Portland, OR 97227 Starts at 4:00PM until 6:00PM or whenever you want to go home on Saturday the 29th, they have a full service bar as well as some nice panini sandwiches amongst other edibles to choose from. https://molokopdx.com/ 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxicurls Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 (edited) Ah. I just saw there's another post about the swap! Anyway. We're stoked to be having all our aquarium friends coming over! We also have classic Nintendo & Super Nintendo available for your enjoyment, which might be a new addition since your last visit. It's a real game-changer. See you Saturday! Edited September 26, 2018 by maxicurls Posted in wrong thread 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe it or not, that awful pun about the Nintendo being a "game-changer" was totally unintentional. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are always the best! Bummed that I will miss this one since we will be out of town. Always love stopping in to check on the tanks when we are down on Mississippi but have never seen the basement setup that runs it all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badxgillen Posted September 29, 2018 Author Share Posted September 29, 2018 Yikes!!! The meeting is in less than 24 hours! I gotta get my coolers, bags, and rubberbands together to pack up some corals in the morning, gotta leave Corvallis before noon to make all the stops and meetings in Portland, it will be worth it though. Molokos with the right friends makes for a great night, see you all there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danlu_gt Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Is Molokos strictly 21 and over? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badxgillen Posted September 29, 2018 Author Share Posted September 29, 2018 Sorry Daniel. Unfortunately since we did not actually rent the whole establishment out it seems that the premises is restricted to the older crowd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously! Going to be odd not having you at a meeting. That's ok, we're heading out of summer so I'm sure we'll all catch up soon enough.

lewisriverfisherman Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 It was great to see all of you who showed up for this meet and greet, it was a nice time. I have never been to Moloko's so this was a kewl place to hang out and just relax for a bit. Thank you Christian for opening your bar for us to have our meeting! Thanks again to all of those that made this meeting happen and all those involved your efforts don't go unnoticed thank you 😊 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuncrestReef Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 I was laughing to myself about what non-aquarists who came into the bar must have been thinking as you guys were trading and/or buying bags of white powder. 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they were clearly marked with potassium chloride 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
