mastercajun has brought up the idea of doing a big ol get-together for DPF. We are thinking of doing 4 meets total. Same weekend, but 4 locations. We are going to do a NE, SE, NW, and SW meet so as many members as possible will be able to get to the M&G.
We're looking at a time in late-August so we have time to get off from work and so that people can plan for it without being so far off that we end up missing the boat and being caught withour pants down when SHTF. August 23-25 is the tentative date.
The South East meet will be handled by old_anorak and mastercajun, and they're looking to shore up that location more as soon as they can. I'm looking for another volunteer to help with the NE meet, and we need volunteers for BOTH west coast teams, north and south.
West side locations are still up for debate. We're looking for somewhere central to help get as many members there as possible. We would like this one to be on that same weekend as the east siders'.
Mark it on your calendars and please do what you can to attend. We would like to do more than just meet & greet. We want to help each other learn as many skills as possible, so if you would like to head up a workshop for the weekend and help members learn a skill you're good with, please speak up!
