American Frog Day 2018 — Pre-event BBQ @ the Amphibian Foundation!

- November 10, 2018

Mike Novy (Rainforest Junkies), Jeremy Mott (JL Exotics), Ivan Lozano Ortega (Tesoros de Colombia), Andreas Zarling with Anthony and Crystal Mandica of the Amphibian Foundation in the Amphibious AF Meeting Room at AF. Joel Sartore's incredible photography in the background. A pre- American Frog Day welcome BBQ was held at the Foundation last night, organized by partners Jeremy Mott and John Wiseman. The food was generously donated by Fat Matt's in midtown, and it was a great, casual way to spend some time before the event starts later this morning. American Frog Day is a one-day amphibious expo, being held at the Hilton Perimeter Suites (6120 Peachtree Dunwoody Rd, Atlanta, GA 30328). Doors open at 10 am. Hope to see you there!
