Frag Swap

This weekend is the Manhattan Reefs annual Frag Swap event at Pratt. There are about six-teen vendors who sell hundreds of corals and fish to the three-hundred people who will be there. I help sign everybody in at the front desk; which means I check off their name, and give them their name-tag. Last year, Turan, (the CEO's wife) said that I did such a good job, that she wouldn't work with anyone else! After everyone is checked in, I help various vendors run their booths, and help their customers. Such as Saltwater Critters, Diamonds of the Reef, and Cherry Corals. I also try not to bug my dad too much because he is the host of the event and is always super busy running around like a maniac. I also pull the tickets for the raffle and make a lot of people happy. The really cool part of last years event was that one of the vendors had a Slush Puppy Machine. A Slush Puppy Machine is basically a Snow Cone Machine but more like a drink. Roomer has it that there are four new flavors this year! It's going to be really fun!
