Of course unless you're from Chicago proper, and perhaps not even then, many of the nearby suburbs are indistinguishable. For now we'll say Chicago to keep it simple unless our ringleader Wes says otherwise.

Depends on hotels. The trouble with Chicago is it is a union town and so that affects the setup and take down process....i.e. we would have to really over pay some slackers to do what we could do ourselves. Lots of details still need to be set. They will be made
available when they are set.

Ugh, don't even get me started on this I know exactly what you mean. We are about to do a job out in Unionized California and its nothing but a pain in the butt, have to have "shadows" for everything even plugging an electrical cord into the wall. Not worth the time, especially for a fish show that's been so successful the past few years just from volunteer work.

Will this be open to anyone or just members? It would be so tempting to drive out and check out the discus y'all show...

It is open to all Eric and it is a lot of fun. I have been to the last two shows and had a blast.

[ericNH]

Thats great! Glad to hear it. I just might do something wild and drive on out...

Vancouver Canada. lol. ok no. id say either hans, or florida or Chicago??

[RogueDiscus]

Hmm. If Chicago area, I might be able to go and see family in Milwaukee!

[Skip]

If u need help assigning discus to tanks. I still have my excel spreadsheet

[Kal-El]

Somewhere around Chicago is the correct answer.....because of cost it will not be in Chicago but somewhere in that general area.


As details get locked down we will keep everyone informed. Hope to see everyone there. It will be a blast.

Awesome news...

[Kal-El]

The Midwest Drinkers/Discus Association (MWDA) decided to get serious and become the Midwest Discus Hobbyists (MWDH) and give NADA 2016 a serious shot. Being centrally located should allow for many people to drive in, and two major airports and several discount airlines in Chicago should make it one of the most affordable places in the country for fliers to travel into. We've got a handful of hard working dedicated discus keepers in our group, many satellite members we expect will pitch in when we need it, and a secret weapon from just outside Atlanta to help us put on the best damn NADA show ever.

Looking forward to actually meeting many of you that to date I've only met digitally. Oh, and if you care to indulge in adult beverages, I think we'll have you covered there too.

I will do my part as needed to help. This is a great news.

My number two hero's guess is the Marriotte in Napperville.

[Mugwump]

Downers Grove 'Doubletree'.....large enough, layout is great....has food and bars...plus close to lots more food and bars...LOL


If not Naperville, this is the likely spot...

Make mistake on your first guess, number two?
