March Expo

We had a good time at the March 3-4, 2007 Reptile Expo in San Antonio.

Even though we were spread a little thin, we were able to run our educational display of the 15 venomous snakes of Texas and run the raffle.

STHA also ran the conessions stand. We will find out if the concession stand is worth doing again at the April meeting.

Thanks to the members that were able to come out and help.

A special thanks to Lynne for setting up the concession stand, to Cam and Brenda for bringing the venomous collection, and to Jon for bringing some of the non-venomous snakes of Texas.

Be sure to mark your calendars for the 2008 Expos!
