Meetings, meetings, meetings. . .

Lets discuss meetings! We still need to have our BIG chapter meeting. We also need to encourage local meetings as well. We need to get out and meet each other! In an effort to maximize the turnout for the Chapter meeting, I want to toss out a few different things we could do or attend and see what you guys think about them. Ability to get time off, driving distance, etc.

-Fun Ford Weekend
Will be held at the Virginia Motorsports Park in Petersburg on June 24-26.
Kind of early for a complete schedule of events, but looks to be fun! Also has lodging information.

-We have many State parks that would be great for just a serious, good ole' fashion cookout! Its all about location! How far is everyone willing to drive? Any fisher-men/women here? Trails? We could also do 2-3 of these a year. Each one closer to those who drove the farthest the last time.

-Crashing someones house is always an option! Whos going to volunteer?

Just some ideas. If you have one, please share!

Local meetings! We shouldn't have to wait for the Chapter meeting to start meeting each other or for the Chapter Leader to organize one. If your in Northen Virginia and want to meet other Northen Virginia Chapter members, post and organize a local meet. If your out in the mountains, make a shout-out! This is also on the hope that this chapter will continue to expand and diversify, and we may need to break the state into 2-3 regions with their own "regional leader/officer/president". Just some thoughts, please, post and comment!




P.S. Don't forget about the race posted HERE
