Good morning everyone! As many of you know, Sunday, May 21st we are hosting our frag swap, the Lonestar Marine Aquarist Rally (LMAR) at the San Antonio Aquarium beginning at 1:00 PM. I wanted to go over Sunday's admission procedures so that everyone is able to get into the aquarium as smoothly and as quickly as


Aquarium admission for swap attendees will begin at 12PM. Anyone who arrives prior to 12 will have to pay their admission to the aquarium and will not be allowed into the swap area. When the doors open, we will have a board member at admissions with a printed spreadsheet of everyone who RSVP’d in advance along with their guests. Please present a photo ID to the board member, and you and your guests will be allowed into the aquarium. We will ONLY be giving door prize tickets to individuals who made an RSVP. It is your responsibility to make sure that you are given a door prize ticket and tickets will not be given out at any other time with no exceptions. If you are a charter member who has not received your card, we will have those for you at admissions.


The swap area will be opening at 12:30 PM for Charter Members and at 1PM for general admission. The swap room is located just around the corner from the main admissions and we will have an LMAR sign blocking the stairs into the room. Please do not attempt to enter the swap area before you designated time.


We ask that members explore the aquarium until 15 minutes before they would be allowed in. Please do not form a line at the entrance to the swap until then as this will prohibit others from enjoying the displays and the aquarium.


Once inside the swap area, if you are a charter member, please bring your charter member ID card to the MAAST raffle booth and we will give you a FREE Raffle ticket for the Charter Member Raffle and allow you to place it in the corresponding bucket of your prize choice. Additional tickets can be purchased by charter members with their charter member ID cards.


Drawings will begin at 2PM.


Thanks and see everyone Sunday!
