Eastern Herp. Expo (Pottstown) RETURN?

BGCassidy · 10-19-11, 07:42 AM

Hello,
My father, Leonard Knapp, who ran the Eastern Herpetological Expo -that ran mostly in Pottstown until it closed in 2005- has had many requests to bring the show back over the years. Most recently someone has volunteered to help him get the show back up and running, so Len is considering it.

Just wondering what everyone thought about the show coming back. Would you go? What would you like to see? When would you like to see another show - spring, summer, fall? Due to regulations, he didn't allow anything venomous - he leaves that area to Marty Piedl and his shows. It may not be in Pottstown again, but would be in the general Philadelphia area. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Thanks! Bethanne Cassidy

I would be extremely happy if you could get an Expo within an hours drive of me!!

The ones in the UK are too far away for me to get to

Any reptile expo in the Philly area can count on me to attend so-- do it!

I think the best times are when it's not snowing, any other time is good. I always like seeing ball pythons, and they're usually what occupies most of the expos I go to. So personally I'd like to see more variation

I've only ever had to pay $8 to get into a reptile expo around here in Philly, so I wouldn't recommend charging anything over that. Anyway, I guess the short answer is YES, if there's new reptile expo coming to Philly, count me in
