Post by matt_longview Fri 21 Jan 2011, 4:00 pm

I imagine we'll have some meetings here and there so I wanted to have a little brainstorming going on.

What type of things would you guys like to see at meetings?

I was thinking frag swaps/coop/sales, a topic to discuss, group buys, free give-a-ways... ect.

Anyone else have ideas for some meetings?

Everyone meets up for a quick meeting to chat and pass out maps of where we're going. Then we car pool to members homes who are on the tank tour and check out their setup. They give a quick run through and people ask them about their setup and then you drive to the next tank on the tour.

Good fun stuff!

That sounds like a great idea!

How about if we have the meeting then we do the tank tours

Time is the only issue there. We meet for a few hours and then tour for a few hours and I may not have a home to go back to when we're done. lol.

LMAO Second that... Perhaps split the meeting and tours up into separate events. Speaking of meetings, would locations cycle or would we meet in singular location?

Don't forget to add Marshall to the list of cities to visit. I know we have at least three members in Marshall that have outstanding tanks. They also have several years of experience we could all learn from.

I was thinking the same thing. We dont have to hit everyone in a day. Breakit up into areas and then only hit 3-4 tanks on the tours. I know me and Donnie are only 5 minutes from each other, not sure how far Gabe is from us.

They had a voting thread for it. I didn't get to see what they had come up with though.
