DC area Meeting???
From: (Fireflylight@aol.com) |
Date: 2002-11-11 17:26:27 UTC-05:00
Hi everyone!
So, I had an idea. Actually, The Frog Family kind of gave me an idea....
I was thinking we should have a winter gathering for the MD/VA/DC folks. Of course, we would love to see anyone who wants to attend from whereever you want to come from!
Perhaps we could all meet for lunch somewhere and then, if weather permits, we could do some cold weather boxing.
My current ideas are two restaurants in Columbia, MD. I choose Columbia because that's where I live! I figure if I'm planning it, I can make you all come to me!!! :-)
But both of the restaurants I'm thinking of have private rooms that we could reserve for a few hours. Also, I think Columbia is a fairly central area. But that's just me.
I was thinking that we could meet either in early December or after the holiday insanity in January. If it is too cold and yucky to box, then we can just hang out and enjoy each others company.
So, what do you think? Any takers? This is open for discussion!!!

Would very much enjoy a winter meet. Would like to meet Forest
Frogs, Newbe1, and all. Maybe quarterly MD/DC/VA area meets could
alternate between MD and VA. Columbia then Reston; wouldn't that be
appropriate?

Plan it and they will come. Coleen, do you have any restaurant
connections closer to the Washington Beltway? I'm thinking of the VA
people's commute. I'd be happy to help look for places closer to DC
(in Montgomery Cty). However, December is office party month so rooms
may be scarce. Just some thoughts. Let me know how I can be of help.

-- Firefly, you are one little party bug. I like how these events
include food. I too prefer Columbia. Normally I would say whenever,
but this time January is a better time for The Turtle and me.

Sounds great to me! Either Dec or January would work as long as the
roads are okay.

The Forest Frog Family would definitely be interested in attending.
December is kind of nutty (sorry Squirrel) for us with holidays and
Little Frog's birthday, so we'd probably prefer January. But, we
would certainly try to attend whenever it happened. Let us know if we
can help ... we're in Rockville.

Sounds like a great idea! Bern and I would love to attend. Jan would
probably be better for us due to holiday stuff in Dec.
Thanks Colleen!

P.S. Congrats on 100 finds! Hopefully I'll get there before too long!

The Hare and I would like to meet everyone.. Columbia really works well for us, too. We aren't fussy on Dec vs. Jan.
Thanks for putting it together, Firefly!

Yay for a DC area meeting!! I wanted to go to the last
one and meet everyone, but it was too far away for me
:( I think it's a great idea, especially with all
the new microboxes popping up in DC... and I've found
a lot in the surrounding area.. I cant wait.. sounds
like fun!
