Aquarium Display Cases
This is an inexpensive solution for dealer display cases. The image below shows a 10 gallon fish tank sitting on top of a 20 gallon fish tank. The 10 gallon is priced at $14 and the 20 gallon at $26 at Petsmart. The lights are Portfolio Black Roundback track lights available at Lowe's for $40. 3 lamps and housings come with the track. An extra lamp can be purchased to maximize the illumination. An adapter to bring a cord and plug into the track will be needed unless you want to jury rig the ceiling connector.
Several extra 10 gallon tanks are available for show dealers. Contact me to arrange to pick them up at my house.

Minerals for Kids
Each middle school and younger attendee will receive SIX Mineral Bucks, each good for "buying" a single specimen from the participating dealer's Mineral Buck Specimen Flats.
Dealers are not required to provide specimens for the Mineral Buck program, but should a dealer wish to participate it would be helpful to indicate a flat that is for "Mineral Bucks". If a dealer doesn't want to fuss with the Mineral Bucks, but wishes to just give away specimens for free, that will be just fine.
