DECEMBER ILLINOIS MEETING

pixeldzn · **Posted:** Mon Nov 21, 2005 11:29 pm

Now that we have the Badlands Run behind us, and being that we failed to get together for a sit down while we were in Indiana, I want to set up a quick gathering for early in December before the holidays get in the way. We need to figure out club leadership and other pertinent stuff.

Sorry to leave out those of you far out from Chicago but in order to move forward the 8 or so of us here are going to organize a core leadership and then we will nail down chapter leadership in other areas such as Michigan, Ohio, Missouri and Wisconsin. Ideally each area will run independently of the others culminating in a yearly gathering similar to Moab but taking place somewhere like the Badlands. I doubt we can expect to gather in 2006 but I think 2007 is a definite goal to shoot for.

Being that Camp Jeep is going to be in Elkhart Lake, WI, I am almost positive all of us here are gonna attend. It's less than 150 miles from my house, so it may be a good opportunity for others to come up and meet the Chicago guys. $350 per jeep is a bargain for 3 days jeepin' and camping.

Back on topic, for those uf us here in Chicago, throw out some ideas of where to meet and what date. I want to get the date and place nailed down by Sunday the 27th of November. The 11th of December is out because I will be attending the GLJT Toys for Tots Run.

Thanks guys and Happy Holidays!

I think we should make this a little more centrally located - how about Hooters in Schaumburg (by Woodfield mall)?

If we're gonna do Schaumburg, I'd rather have it at Gameworks so we can bring the kids along and give em something to do.

That's fine to, I was just thinking of somewhere that would be open enough for us to congregate at one table. If we were to use the upstairs bar area at Gameworks (by the pool tables) I am sure we would have enough space.

I agree with pix. The gameworks idea is good and we can probably reserve an area for us for cheap so we can organize better. Lets decide on a time and then talk to gameworks about it.

I would rather just meet where ever there is space for us. I don't want to have to guarantee Gameworks any head count/bill total.

I think if we do it during the day on a sunday we should be able to find a table to accomodate us while the kids play without a reservation.

Thanks for the correction Henry. Looks like the meeting should be held Sunday, the 18th. Now we just need a start time, Gameworks opens at 10am on Sunday. What about 11 or noon?

SunDvl · **Posted:** Wed Nov 30, 2005 11:01 am

So what's up with the meeting? Are we still planning on Sunday, the 18th around noon?

pixeldzn · **Posted:** Wed Nov 30, 2005 11:36 am

I was kind of trying to wait for paul, don and bogdan to chime in. I know don might be busy with his move right now.
