Rebuild, redecorate, and reenergize your interest in the hobby with the biggest frag swap in the Delaware Valley!
11 AM - 3 PM
April 9th at the King of Prussia Firehall
170 Allendale Road, King Of Prussia, PA 19406.
Visit our site for all the latest information (www.delvalreefclub.org) and join the fun on the forums.
Hope to see you there!
could you explain actually HOW the swapping occurs? is it that if i bring in some i can exchange them for others, or buy some cheap, or what?
NOooooooooooo! Everyone had a blast least year, but the exact same time last year there was a yearly family event I have to go to and it happened again this year. 
So many frags, so many deals, so many prizes and we can’t go again!
Craig are you going to run our booth? I think one of my favorite buddies to run into at the swaps will likely be there again and I really want to grab something from him. If you could hold it for 24 hours I’d make it worth your wild.
We need to discuss this at the meeting tomorrow. Frag swaps are a great way to really get into things, score some sweet deals, meet more people, learn stuff, win stuff… Need to get as many people as possible to go and enjoy things in our place. This stinks. I want to go.
i’ll ask again: how is the actual “swapping” done? is it like the one at tfp, buy/look/check things out, or is it like the one at eca, bring frags in, get a number, swap yours for someone else’s?
Paul I think it’s like the one at TPP - there will be vendors and swappers set up around the room selling their wares. I’m not sure if there is a fragswapper.com event set up for this one or not though.

I am just trying to be little funny of this advertisement. If you have all the problems listed above, last thing you should do is get more frags or trade yours. It’s like car comes in for flat tire in shop but customer is looking to buy stereo system
I just got borred for 2 min, while advisor selling a tire.
Yeah I agree Rostri - sounds funny. I think they’re trying to emphasize the lectures and products that will be available from the vendors to educate and treat the previous mentioned problems.
At least that’s what I HOPE they’re trying to do.
maybe they will also be raffling off QT tanks hahahah
Ok Paul, and everybody. Their frag swap is registered on fragswapper.

Sorry for not monitoring this thread better guys. The DVRC swap is more like a seminar with vendors but we also encourage hobbyists to swap. If you would like to coordinate swapping or selling with other hobbyists feel free to use fragswapper to set them up and hook up at the swap. If you have a lot of frags and you’d like a space to sell them, we have a limited number of hobbyists tables available.
This year we are improving the event by making it a little shorter, getting more vendors, and offering more demos and activities to make it more fun. Keep an eye out for our list of demonstrations and raffle items. Hope to see you there.
Only one more week!
