First All SEM GTG Feeler

[Onk]

Talking with Jay over the weekend, we were thinking that it would be cool to all get together sometime around next memorial day. Its far enough out that people can start to plan and save for it. We were thinking maybe somewhere around North Georgia (kinda central for all of us...we got people from TX all the way to NC down to FL)....

We figured if there is enough interest, we could look into getting a group rate at a local hotel, and make a 2 day just hang out, storm a few local bars and restaurants and show people what SEM does! As it gets closer, we could all keep an eye out for a car show around the area we happen to invade...

Would also be a great way to recruit new members....What would someone say, if they were talking to a group of people from many different states that all met up to share an awesome weekend together???


What are ya'lls thoughts and opinions??

Macon or Atalanta?

Not sure yet, but somewhere north GA.

Maybe find a place that has cabins for rent...

Its not north, but those fancy hotels in Savannah on the river are nice! Not a cabin, more of a mansion haha

^^^ rent a house on the beach. bring air mattress's and sleeping bags, and booze

[ramthis9501]

Not sure about the booze but it would be awesome if I could come down for a meetup

[AParrette]

Well Drinking optional of course...But it wouldnt be worth it for just one day, so it would be best to make it like a Late friday, all saturday and late sunday kinda thing...

It would be cool to meet all the out of staters....
