Ladies and Gentlemen,
The passionate desire of aquarists in the Pacific Northwest has made a new MAX show a reality!

After careful study and consideration, we finally decided to grant the request of clubs and hobbyists who have long petitioned for a Marine Aquarium Expo in their corner of the country.

"SEAMAX" will debut in Seattle, WA on July 23-24, 2011 at the Seattle Center. Strategically placed in the center of the largest city of the Pacific Northwest, SEAMAX is anticipated to reach hobbyists and businesses throughout the entire PNW region.

The Seattle area is conveniently surrounded by large metropolitan areas such as Portland OR, Vancouver BC and neighboring states of Idaho and Montana.

We are now officially starting to fill booth space, so please contact us at your earliest convenience if wishing to exhibit at SEAMAX next summer. NO DEPOSIT is required and fees are not due until February of next year!

We are also starting to get a number of prospective speakers inquiring about the event.
More info later
 
Posted announcement on front page of MAX website, but still trying to figure out the best way to link to its own webpage soon.
 
We have nearly 20 vendors committed to SEAMAX already. Only a couple are from this area thus far but I suspect that will change once the information gets out in the mainstream. We could really use everyone's help in spreading the word.

We haven't released which businesses have committed to SEAMAX, but will soon.
 
Hopefully you wouldn't pull our leg twice in one thread. That would be just mean. That is awesome though if it indeed holds weight.
 
I know we all tend to not see sig lines here so..............
Has anyone checked out this web site?
 
.
Ladies and Gentlemen, I believe you've waited long enough...

We are honored to reveal the first 20 official "SEAMAX Launch Customers"!

Listed below are your first group of exhibitors to participate in the first MAX for the Pacific Northwest region!
May I point out that a majority of these businesses signed on before even knowing the exact date or location!
As such, please try and return the favor by supporting these great pioneers of the brandnew SEAMAX 2011!

THESE are the people who made this event go from idea to reality!
