    Default Southern California Discus Meeting, Summer 2010!

    OK.... after seeing all the fun that Al and the folks in the Northeast are having with their discus meetings, I think it's about time that the west coast gets their act together. From looking at the forum members locations, we should be able to get a good little group together.

    I am willing to host the meeting. If there is a lot of response to this and those that wish to attend are further North than say Santa Barbara, maybe we can work something out to meet further North, but someone will have to pony up to host it.

    Anyway, just wanted to put the feelers out there to see how much interest, if any, is there to actually make a gathering worth while. Please reply to this thread with your location and if you could make it to San Diego or can host something closer to YOU!

    Lets get interested West coast!!

    Best wishes!

    Kenny,

    If all goes well, we can have a February meet as well! I've got a spare room for you if you need it. I'd love to show off the fish room!

    Best wishes my friend!

    Thumbs up Re: Southern California Discus Meeting, Summer 2010!

    Chad:

    I was going to contact Kevin (Lucky Tropical) and see if he is interested in hosting a local meeting. He imports fish from Lawrence Soon monthly and I thought it would be great for a local gather .. Just to see his new fishes .. and we can gather all the local discus fans .. to share their experience, and possibly do some group buy, trade, etc ...

    I didn't actually talk to Kevin yet and not sure if he has the time or if he is willing to do so ...

    Hey, perhaps we can have alternate meeting places between Los Angeles and San Deigo ...

    Anyway, let's get a club started !

    Visu,

    That's great! Maybe we could find someone in LA that would be willing to host such a gathering as well. I'd be happy to travel there as well. Once we get a few locations identified we can alternate locations. Even if it's only twice a year, that's more than none at all! Once in San Diego, maybe once in LA?

    Let's see how many people can jump on this thread and get a feel for what we can do! I'll be happy to host the first one!

    BUMP!

    Come on Cali folks! Where is everyone? There's got to be more than just a couple of us around... I know these things take time to populate, but thought there would be more response than this....

    WEST COAST!! LOL!

    Best wishes!

    I'd make the drive down from the bay area. Packed with styro boxes and heat packs just in case.

    Now that's what I'm talking about!

    We (the group) could meet half way! I know it's about an 8 hour drive.

    More, more! LOL!

    Excellent!

    Got any friends in the AZ area that may want to road trip? A meeting in AZ wouldn't be out of the question either!

    Thanks for chiming in!

    Thanks for the idea Chad, but I don't think where I live is a very good location, its about five hours north of SF and I'm probably one of the few discus keepers up here. BUT someone living down in San Francisco would make a pretty ideal location though and they got a good discus scene there too. Any San Francisco people want to start a Northern California Meeting?
