SoCaliReefs Meet & Greet???
- Thread starter MadMax
- Start date
Unfortunately, the sence of community is not as it once was. Getting people to volunteer their time (especially on a weekend) is a rather difficult task to achieve.
We would consider helping to put together a small social event, as a co-sponsor, however it will take more committments....from other sponsors and/or owners to make it happen.
While sports may be an attractive bonding component for many people it is unfortunately rather difficult to secure a court or diamond to hold such activities. Not to say this should squash the idea of basketball, baseball/softball, etc. I'm just saying that an appropriate venue would need to be sought before even considering such activities.
All the venues I am familiar cost some serious $$$ to lease, even for a day. An ideal scenario would be finding a member or sponsor who has a family business, church, or other organization with appropriate outdoor square footage and appropriate parking. Getting that person to volunteer their time is an entirely new matter all together.
We will be exhibiting in MACNA/Denver in just a few more days, so I will be rather busy for the next week or so, but will try to stay in the loop nonetheless.
Those of you who are lucky enough to go to Denver, be sure to stop by the Marine Aquarium Expo booth #311 and say Hi to Tammy or myself. We will be passing out MAX postcards, pens, concubines, keychains and flyers, etc.
(sigh) Ok, so I lied about the concubines but at least my heart was in the right place!

I think the greater problem would be choosing a central location that can snag up the most number of people - and having a diverse enough list of activities so that everyone can enjoy the day, rather then just who came to play BBall or something.
last year, we had a BBQ for my motorcycle group at George Bellis Park in Anaheim. the place had a lot of field space, tennis court for dodgeball, and pretty nice shaded area for BBQ'ing.
