Who's going to the ACA

[Lively]

ACA Convention moves around the country every year. Next year it is in Milwaukee.

Beer and fish, huh? Now that should be a wing-ding of a convention wonder if they'll have brewery tours lol

if we can get enough people to get a small bus

if we can get enough people to get a small bus that might help sway some people like myself I can probably even get 2 friends to join us.
I can do the leg work on this if anyone is interested!

Check on Greyhound Bus. I think I saw a rate of $90 dollars round trip from Silver Spring, Maryland departing at 8:40pm July 30th and arriving in Cincinnati Ohio around 10am. A total of 13 hours on the bus with a bathroom, just bring your own Ipod or Laptop for entertainment.

The return is departing from Cincinnati at 3pm on Sunday August 2nd and arriving at 8:30 am on Monday.

The deal is, you have to pre-purchase 14 days in advance.

Not bad for those who don't want to drive. The total is $93 with tax.

Would be better off sharing a ride with some friends.
Talk fish all the way out and back. lol

As long as you don't fill a trailer with water, right Francine?

The only problem that there is with Amtrak, Grayhound, and flying is you have to come up with some kind of MacGyver technique to get all the fish you buy back home.

 

[Pat Kelly]

If someone out there has a shipping license for an airline it would not be too bad.
Those boxes that came in last time were about $10.00 per box to fly in. But I think you need to have a license. Fed ex is another option but a lot more expensive. Depends on what you want to bring home.

 

[longstocking]

Why can't the fish go on greyhound? I know people that ship through greyhound to close locations.

 

[dogofwar]

For flying...just pack a styro in your luggage...and put the fish bags in it...check your bag...and away you go....

Oh come on people. Lets do it.

 

[RIFT_LAKES_RULE]

I wish I could Pat!!! Me and the family are definitely attending the picnic and the road trip to Julies, hopefully it will work into a trip to the ACA one of these years.

Actually, probably only 9 now. I will be working feverishly all summer on a big project and am not likely to be able to go at this point.

Wow, I figured that since this one was closer we would have more people than last year.

 

[Pat Kelly]

Don't make me show my "why I go to conventions" talk.

You don't want it to go that far. ound:ound:
