Anyone notice that the main sponsor is an "extermination" company??? Thought that was strange, kinda like nazis having a remembrance for holocaust victims... Weird...

Woot


I think I'll volunteer to be at one of the tables this year. I let you know when it gets closer to the date.

Also it will be the chance to get the 40 roaches that ERic owes me. Laughing

It was *great* fun last year, and the scabies table was continuously *mobbed* with families and kids!  Most popular were the bugs we had there that people (especially the kids) could handle.

Don't worry -- I doubt we're going to "fill up" or anything!  Last time we had about 4-6 scabies members there at one time and we could have used more!  We had visitors stacked up about four deep in front of the tables.  I would strongly recommend 6-8 scabies members there at all times, if possible.  'Though during the quieter times you could get away with as few as 2 for short periods.

I'll be in Riverside on Saturday and then the Museum on Sunday.
Herp freak said he help me on Sat. but if we could get at least 2 more members and there bugs and or herps to show up, that will help out big time.

Supposed to get our registration packets in the mail sometime this month. I'm all a-twitter... The closest hotel I found to the Bugfair is Radisson-westside for $200 clams a night!  Shocked  Anything else decent close to the NHM for under $100 a night?

I think I might need to have a vendor's pass. If anyone of you could send me the forms so I can have the pass it would be wonderful. I am hoping to actually have a name tag and be there early to set up with SCABIES.

I booked my flight down, so I'll be attending, this year; the only SFBATS making it down, though. Sad

I'll be staying with the Casey's. Only $200/night plus domestic chores! I got a deal, man! Mr. Green

I'll be dropping in to see what's available, but can't stay long.  Damn business ownership is killing us lately!
