Summer Gathering 2010

So, the whole 2009 gathering didn't work out. I don't think we gave ourshelves enough time for planning and now the summers almost gone. So let's work on next summer's plans! This way, we have a whole year to plan.

I think from the forum we established that D.C. would be the most convinent/best place to host this gathering.

Q and A about the gathering so far:

Q: Where in D.C. we're going to meet?
A. The Carousel at the mall.

But other than that heres some things we need to decide;

1. What we're going to do? Events, food, exc?
- Museums? The Natural Museum of History is a must, the Air and Space Museum and the National Art Gallery have been mentioned so far.
2. When exactly should the gathering take place?
3. How everyone's going to get there? Will carpools be in order?
4. How much money are you personally willing to spend on this gathering?

I think those are the main things, now discuss! You can do it right below this in the comments.

Comment by Francis9105 on November 24, 2009 at 11:47am: Yay, we've reached 80 members! =D

Comment by Francis9105 on November 23, 2009 at 12:30pm: The Mall would actually be a very good place to meet. I'm in favour of meeting next to the carosel (the Mall is kind of huge, so just saying "meet at the Mall" might be a little difficult)

Also, I am definitely coming to the gathering and, most likely, my boyfriend will be going as well. I'm going to ask several of my other Virginia nerdfighter friends if they want to go as well.

Comment by Tenley Nadine (book ningmaster) on November 17, 2009 at 6:23pm: The Mall (although I just learned what is was from you) would be a good spot to meet. It sounds like a crowded area (correct me if I'm wrong) so we'd have to have a specific and obvious spot within the mall to find each other. Also, some way to recognize each other would be nice... since most of us have never met IRL before.

But, its still open to suggestions. Like I said before I've never been to D.C. so my knowledge of where to meet is extremely limited. I'm just kind of rolling with whatever you guys think is good.

Also, how many of you are actually interested in coming to the gathering? I just thought it would be good to have a rough count. In fact, I think I'll start a forum so we can just count the posts.

Comment by Masha Winchell on November 15, 2009 at 9:13pm: 1. Where in D.C. we're going to meet?

How about The Mall (if you don't know, it that large area with all of the museums and the Washington Monument and what not)? There's a bunch on museums and a carousel. I mean I like museums, but does everyone else?

Comment by Francis9105 on November 1, 2009 at 6:45pm: I live a good two or three hours away from Roanoke. )=
I seem to live a good two or three hours away from everything. xD

Comment by wearsredsox on October 22, 2009 at 7:23pm: Yeah I think about an hour... I'm not familiar with the area, I just go to school here. My home base is NoVA :)

Comment by Tenley Nadine (book ningmaster) on October 22, 2009 at 2:13pm: I'm in Lynchburg, that's about an hour from Roanoke? And I know there's a couple of people from Roanoke.

Comment by wearsredsox on October 21, 2009 at 8:13pm: I'm just gonna throw this out there- I know there are some VA Nerdfighters at Tech, but is anybody at Roanoke?
