Hey guys, our historic meet is less than two months away and it's time to start finalizing the event. Thank you Dave for working out all the details for the t-shirts. I hope everyone will buy one and represent our summit to the fullest. Can't wait for that group picture with all of us wearing the shirts.
A few months back I posted a lot of information and possible ideas for our meet. Whatever we do, our meet is going to be awesome. Whether it'd be hanging out in the bar, lobby or blasting in the street we are going to have the time of our lives. But it would really be nice if at some point we had a central place to meet up and have the opportunity to blast our radios and check out everything that we have brought. That's a little difficult to do in the lobby or at the bar. In fact, if we try to blast our radios in those places we will probably get thrown out. So the only viable alternative to having that experience is renting out a conference room. The room would have tables, chairs and power outlets for us to connect our boxes. The room would also include a Mexican lunch buffet. This would also allow us to have demonstrations such as how to replace tape deck belts and add LED lights to a radio's tuner. Members like Chris (Lasonic TRC-920) and Joe (blu_fuz) have volunteered to give some of these work shops.
But in order to have this experience it's going to take a financial commitment on the part of members that have the ability to contribute. Like I posted in the stickied thread, it would cost about $1,000 including gratuity. If 20 members donate $50 we will reach our goal of $1,000. So far the following 5 members have agreed to donate $50 each.

That means we currently have $250 towards the conference room. We need 15 more members to help out towards this goal.
I know that $50 can be a lot to ask when you consider that you all are already spending money on travel and hotel accommodations. So it's totally understandable if you can not contribute. But if you're in a position to contribute then let's see if we can make it happen and have our meet reach epic levels.
REMEMBER LUNCH WILL BE INCLUDED!!!!
Remember ALL we be welcomed regardless of whether you were able to financially contribute or not. We are all one big family and we always support one another no matter what. Those who can contribute this time may not be able to in the future and others may help them out. It's called good karma.
The conference room would be booked from 12 to 4 on Saturday September 24th. Lunch will be available from 12-2.
Once we reach the $1,000 pledge from our members, I'm going to need you to send me funds via PayPal so I can secure the room for us.
Remember please be sure that you can commit to what you offer.
Thanks and I hope we can reach our goal. Together we can make this happen.
If no one responds than I know we as a group are unable to make this happen and we will just have to make due with what's available for free.
