So which day is everyone going?

And is there a raffle at all? I don't see one in the agenda posted.

I'll be hanging around the Golden State Corals booth most of the day, come say hi. Also, if anyone is looking for some dove snails (nano conchs), I brought a few to sell. I throw in a few extra for my socali friends.

Remember to validate your parking, The reefapalooza folks in front will validate. It’s $15 validated. It’s like $33 not validated. And if you are parking in the lot across the street, it’s $35. It’s kind of hard to get into parking since they got other cosplay convention going on.

Another way is to park a few blocks away on the street and take the OC bus for $2 each way. Might have to wait a little for the bus.

No more parking at 130pm.... they shouldn't let people park there for the convention center. You're letting someone host an event at your hotel and you let another event take up all your parking....

Hilarious! Not! I was watching this post all week until last night and nothing about parking. So, I get there today and pull up, press button and dude says $33. I said reefapalooza website says $15, he says $33. I do a u-turn to check next door at Hilton. Nowhere on Reefapalooza website did it say they were validating. Shared my annoyance with a girl at checkin, she was clueless. It’s the principle of the matter. How hard is it for WWC to communicate the process. No worries, I last attended 7 years ago and it will be the same next time. I went to my go vendors, S.G., few others, bought ten Acro’s, got a hydros issue cleared up with Carlos and bolted under two hours. Paid $23 for parking at Hilton. Bottomline, I don’t think parking should cost more than event. What is up with the Sponsor WWC and their massive 20 gallon frag setup? They used to have five frag tanks wrapping around their booth?

I thought the same thing when I walked by. One of the biggest names there and one small frag tank.

I parked at the Marriott and didn’t pay anything for parking
