I'll come depending on whether I can drive there in one day, and as long as it doesn't interfere with our summer camping trip. Not sure when that is, exactly. When approximately would such a Meet and Greet be held?

Where's this at? I'm pretty cheap, I could make myself available for airfare, lodging and beer. No wait, that last part might get pretty expensive...

But he's totally worth it
A good portion of my training budget is dedicated to beer and the prusit of it while at seminars...

There seem to be a whole lot of East Coast, or Midwest suggestions. Are there ever any 'Meet and Greet' in the West?

Nothing stopping one of you from organizing one for the West Coast members..Now if you wanna fly Bob Hubbard out there and put him up and feed him I don't think he'd be opposed to that..
I am going to try like crazy to make the next meet and greet. Only time will tell but like everyone else here I enjoy training, meeting people and getting together afterwards.

Right now, the "main" M&G is in Buffalo each year. We did try other locations initially but those plans all fell through. We have had several other informal get togethers go on though.
What I would like to do at some point is have several regional M&G's with a large "big event" type one each year.
Right now, there's talk of 2 additional events, one in London Ontario, and one in Texas. There will be one in Buffalo this summer, just working out details with the host school. I'd love to see one on the West Coast as well. I would like to attend them all, but cash flows tight. But! There are always ways.
So, if someone is interested in organizing a regional M&G, lets talk

I told patrick22 to organize one and fly you out there..
There is a Hampton near the school. Enough people and we may be able to get a group rate for those folks that aren't using their frequent traveler points
Yup, that's usually where people stay, and group rates have been negotiated there before.
So...Is there like, an estimated date or timeframe yet? Or do I just need get unlazy and read more?

If you de-lazied, you'd find that nothing certain has been declared. All is up in the air. Reconvene lazing. :lol2:
