I haven't seen this thread until today. I'm down for a meet. We were talking about Dave & Busters in the Toronto meet thread. That sounds like a cool idea.

What happened to the Michigan crowd, though? There's gotta be more survivors than this!

I don't really want to drive all the way out to Toronto unless everybody comes out.

I want to meet either in SE Michigan or in Windsor, otherwise.

PA- was that Malden Park we went to last year? I checked the Windsor maps, and I think that was it. It's right off the Ambassador bridge. I will call them to see if the park is open.

I agree about Toronto. We could follow each other to TO, but I would prefer something closer. If not Walden, Dave & Busters might work. What about Stoney Creek or Metro Beach. Metro Beach has a HUGE parking lot, and it's right off I-94.

dragonlord, call them to see when the park is open with the BBQ. Looks like some people around the GTA are willing to make the road trip out there. Sounds good if it was set up similiar to last year?

Yeah, Malden Park sounds right. I wouldn't mind going there again. We had the back area to ourselves and it was a good time.

My new passport is in, so I won't have any trouble crossing the border this time.

I would only go to Toronto if it was a big meet, and make it an overnighter. Otherwise I want to stay in Michigan or Windsor.

Windsor meet? Sad to think I would just be able to show up then have to take off after a bit. Have so many assignments and have to start studying for finals ...

Yes, the meet last year was at Malden Park.

Any day is good for me. Do you think Astroboy will be able to be there? We would need a BBQ since he brought the last one.

^^^ Filled in the rest of the names.

Perhaps a week or two prior to the meet, we'll start a sign-up sheet for who's bringing what.

And yeah, just about any weekend in April should be good for me, unless something comes up at the last minute.

Could you ask for it off and work on Sunday instead or something? It's about a month notice if you tell them now.

It doesn't matter to me, I thought there were more people not able to make the 22nd. I thought the 22nd would be better-Easter is the 16th.
