I always Liked Pinchot State Park....just something about it.....not crowded, and serene

Oh wow, this would be awesome. Ktspktsp and I are in PA.. let us know!!

I'd be interested.

Depending on when and where .. I may be interested if I'm in NY already. Got any specific dates in mind to discuss ?

If it's in Philly, I might be able to trek down for this.

i was thinking late next spring, if anyone has ideas for places to have it, by all means do mention.

Little Buffalo State Park not very far from my place, as long as school(not college) is still in session its easy to find a big spot to use if need be.

there also is Knobles and HersheyPark, tho Knobles is alot less crowded and more in the country then HersheyPark.

depending on traffic its less then an hour from my house, i havent been there but i know where it is.

You're near Little Buffalo shortynickel? Wow, Perry County represent! I'm like 5 minutes away from there.

I live about 10 minutes south of Williamsport and go to college about 30 mins down 26 from State College, so as long as it's within an hour or two driving distance of either of those places you can count me in.

Ktspktsp and I are between State College and Philly, so basically anywhere along 76 or its environs would be great. Who's planning this thing?

Am I the only one in way-western PA?

I'm in.
If the northern Pocono's are in play, I might be able to get a couple of cabins (small houses) there on an inreadable lake, if I have enough notice.

It doesn't matter where, as much as when.

Keep it going, and I'll look forward to metting all of you somewhere.

without traffic i can be around state college in about an hour, even less when they get the new road done!

if yall would like i can plan this

Please do, shorty... we'd much 'preciate it. Maybe we can throw a sticky in the Discussion board to get more PA folk's attention?

Done................thread moved to GD and Stuck

Shortynickel - did you have any dates in mind? I do not have job/working restrictions at this point, but a ballpark figure might be good to get some feedback. Does Late February or March work for anybody?

I'm in DC (well, College Park Maryland), but would gladly come to a meet if I could get a ride from someone, and assuming that it didn't conflict with school or spring break.

i was thinking late may early june as to not conflict with college schedules. tho feb or march works we will prolly need to find a place that we can do it indoors cause its usually snowy then.

Both Quadro and I would be interested, of course depending on scheduling!

As long as it's a weekend, we can manage. :)

There definitely seems to be enough interest - it may be time to figure out exactly where everybody would be coming from, and come up with a few places that might be in the middle?

I'm good for eithter the Feb/March or May/June window.

i'm in philadelphia---if folk are interested in coming to west philly, i could potentially host a gathering. i'd be interested in attending in any event.

I like Feb/March, since in May/June I usually jet out of town pretty quick... not to mention it would be nice to have a late winter break.

Let's set a date and place and do this thing!!

what r good dates in feb/march, amonkie and abaya?

I'm open on the dates, but depending on whether it is west/Central PA or closer to Philly, i'd have to factor in more/less driving time.

What about dates in the weekends of Feb 17-19 or 24-26? Valentine's Day falls midweek, so for those of you who wanted to spend the weekend prior with a SO, this won't conflict.

We could probably do Philly on Feb 17-19 or Central PA on 24-26th.

Anyone else?

I'm in Philly, so if my schedule still works at the time (random schedule) I'll try to get there.

hehe , trust me you dont get more *western* then I am.

I'm 10 min from the boarder.

so is there any consensus here? philly/not phlly as meetup location for example?

We could do either weekend - 18th or 25th.

If you beg me....I may be able make it.


would some one please take C o n t r o l of this thread?

I'm all about the Lancaster-Lebanon-Harrisburg area.
otherwise...I prob'ly gotta work.

: )

sorry i have have been pretty busy with the kids and the holidays, i revised my original post.

I'm in Philly and would love to attend. Lebanon-Lacaster-Harrisberg works
I work in sales, so I'm free when ever I want.

I would like to see you all in the Philly area, for selfish reasons.

Shorty, can you switch my availability dates? We had an event come up that reversed out driving schedules. Thanks!

Oh, and please add ktspktsp to the list, since he would be attending too. :)

This is shaping up to a great list! :)

I'm still in the air as I wait to hear about jobs in order to know my exact schedule. The closer to cental PA, the less driving time for me, which cuts it down from about a 7 hour drive to 5 :)

If we're really looking at dates in February, at this point can someone(s) suggest a meeting place in an area that works for them on one of the specific dates that seem to work for everybody? Those who could make it there can yay or nay ...

Yes, Quadro should be on the list too, since he goes where I go (assuming he's not rehearsing or something). So... central PA on the 17th-19th, or Philly on the 24th- 26th.

Shortynickel - can you add a poll?

Thanks to analog for adding the poll ...

For the poll, either date works for us (as long as the locations don't change from what is specified). So I didn't vote... but basically we can do either one. Let's make this happen!! :)

Oh, goodie! Maybe I can get in on the Jess/Quadro ride (wink, wink)... I voted for the 24th-26th because I hope to be playing ultimate winter league finals that weekend. Make me strong, strong maybe for that second weekend and I'll probably know for sure in a week or two.

Well if this thing is going to happen in Central PA, we can use my house but hopefully its nice out like it is right now.
