From Lawernce take K-10 east to 435 east. Then take I-35 south to 119th street. Turn left from the exit ramp and go to first light after the bridge and thats Strange line Road. Turn right and take a left and first light. Then you want to turn right in about 50 feet. Its next to Texas Raodhouse and south of Joes Crab Shack!! Anyone get lost can call me on my cell!! 913-208-8130

Thought I'd bring this to the top. I don't think I'll drive up for this. But I could change my mind. As it's this weekend I thought others might want to post on if they'll be there or not.

Well no more interests in any of the locals showing, I am not gonna bother going.
Why should I drive and hour when no one else will be there.
I made plans with the family instead this weekend.

Well it seems this GTG has died. Everyone worried about going to tuttle and all, no one decides to go to the Kansas City GTG. Kinda of a bummer cause i was lookin forward to see some of ya guys. Hell it kinda seems this chapter has fallen apart and most went there own way.

thats why i havent posted in awhile cause i seen this coming!
Just my thoughts im pounding out here!!

Maybe we should have a moveable G2g once a month? The idea has been kicked around... Thoughts?....

For me personally KC is a 3 1/2 to 4 hour drive depending on where the g2g is... and I just can't make it that far.

Jeff, no need to blame any persons for not showing up at GTG that have been actually showing up. No need to blame Tuttle for the lack of interests in the KC area.
Chad, we have moved the GTG around. Emporia last month, Lawrence the month before that and the Christmas party the month before that. Yes, this Chapter is dying in the KC area. It is thriving really well in others. Not gonna place blame. Not my place to do so.

LOL,
My wife just read this thread.
If anyone cares to remember, The GTG that was in Lawrence was in fact at my house where my wife kindly pointed out that we fed all the people that showed. We had chili, tacos hot dogs and all of the fixins. Had a great time too! but not one KC member drove to Lawrence for this meet.
My point is, if none of the KC members are going to participate, there is no reason to have the GTG in KC.
I am going to get off my soap box now.
I am done commenting.





























For now.
Mark

Mark that was my point.. instead of 2 g2g 's a month maybe we could cut it down to 1, roving one. I was at Emporia and I remember you there... but no one from the KC area came to that one either, that I remember. (I could be wrong) Now that the weather is nicer we could have them outdoors instead of just in restraunts as well. Woodlawns would love to have us back as a club, and the Bar in Wichita last time gave us a private room, and would like to have us back there as well. Tony and Mark have hosted them at their houses fairly recently. Maybe instead of trying to fill up a set weekend night we could have it around an event... Like if there is swap meet in Emporia on a Saturday.. we could go to the meet - then all go to supper somewhere.

Just kicking around a few Ideas...Trying to stir up interest...

So what does everyone else think?????

Thats ok Mark, yea i didnt show up at your house for the GTG and to tell ya the truth i felt outta place! As for the KC gtg i have shown up to each and every one except when we all went to the lake. As for all the others i have driven to Lawernece to a GTG if i remember correctly.

As far as im concerned right at this moment, i dont have time to be on this board and post for as i have a newborn to take care of. I wish ya all good luck and maybe someday i will see ya arounds!!

Peace to everyone and hope your dreams come true!!
Jeff

I kinda like the idea of moving around and meeting maybe once a month at different places. With all the things going on it gets to be a little much to drive 2-3 hours just to eat and visit for awhile. Maybe meeting at a place or event that is an all day or part of the day anyway would be more worth the drive. The KC area meet was winding down to mainly people from outside of KC going to them. Other then Jeff no one else came from the KC area. Mark and Tony are the only ones even close that made the trip the others were from a lot farther away. The Wichita meet is still going great as that goes. No one should be to blame it just happens. Outside of a small group that made meets everything else was just a forum or computer group. For me to go to a G2G with my boys it costs around 100-150 bucks for a decent meal and a few hours to visit a little. Now I really enjoy the time with all my friends and still continue to go if I can. At the same time I can spend half that and have a fun weekend 4-wheeling with great friends. I guess I am saying that for me I have had to set my sights on what gets the most out of a meet.

The option is still open if members want to meet somewhere, it only takes 3 to have a g2g. Does anyone have a suggestion for a location on short notice?

I liked the idea of going to Woodlands for a GTG. Wasn't someone going to work on setting that up?
