Unhappy March Meet???

Hey all

So far, only four people, me included, have voted on a march meet. We have over sixty members, and it would be nice to get more than four people together!! Now, I realize that the guys who live well outside of Omaha/Lincoln area don't want to drive several hours for a meet. But it would be nice to hear from some of you guys around Omaha/Lincoln!!! All we need is one G2G to get things rolling!

I'm open to anything, in the evening or on a weekend. It would be nice if we could have a venue that would include everyone. But maybe we could start organizing a summer meet out along I-80. ???

Hey Doug. I was thinking of something either on a saturday or sunday. Somewhere we any of us could go, like a buffalo wild wings place, or something like that. I'd prefer to stay away from, say, a bar, since I know some of our members are under age, and I don't want to exclude anyone. Somewhere between Omaha/ Lincoln, or even somewhere like Wahoo, would work for me. Ideas??

My apologies for not casting a vote yet but I work every saturday so it would be one of those things where you name the day and I will see if I can show up. If I can find something more workable tonight I will throw in a vote.

I'm in the "not really willing to drive a few hours for a meet" group. I will be up for some summer meets though as I will be working in Columbus this summer so I will be closer to all you yahoos....

I'm a little far away too, up in the Ainsworth area. I'm in northeast NE quite often though if anything is ever happening a little closer to home.

It doesnt sound bad I dont think to get everyone we can together then maybe towards summertime get something going more towards the middle of the state to try and tie all in.

You set the date and I will see what I can do. No promises though, March is when the pull truck comes out of storage and goes to the shop...

I think the NE chapter should have a meet and greet at the Lincoln swap meet with a tent, heaters and free food for all those FTE'ers that come from other states. LOL

Did somebody say free food?

Hey Pat - I'm just kind of waiting to see what you all decide. I really want to come down for a meet, so it won't matter to me if it's in Omaha, Lincoln or some other place around there, it's all about the same to me.

Cool, thanks Rob. I think it'd be great if you were there! I'm thinking somewhere, south of Omaha, or maybe out to Wahoo, so we can get the Omaha/Lincoln guys, and some of the guys out a little farther west.

I know it's been mentioned......but when is the Lincoln swap meet? That may be a good idea to try and do something there.......heck I might even venture out that way for that!!!

I'm thinking what I need to do is get a map,and see where everybody is at, that way I could at least try to centralize a meet a little easier.
