Hey guys, sorry can't make it this year: my wife and I already made plans for the Valentine's weekend. Looks like a lot of people are up to it, so hope you'll guys have fun. I'm sure there will be even more people at the meet: last time nearly half the people who showed up were "lurkers" :).
Hotsause, I still have your walkie-talkie from the last yerar's meet! I've sent you email and private message trying to get it back to you, but you never responded. Let me know if you still want it.
Yeah I do, I'll be needing that when paintball starts up again.
Foxwoods sounds great. I enjoyed Mohegan Sun last year but there is no place at Foxwoods where we can enjoy the NY/NJ "flyover" as we did from the top of the Mohegan Sun ramp garage. Foxwoods has an "RV" parking lot which is only RV's and Trailer trucks and it is about a 10 minute walk to the hotel. This time of year, the lot should have plently of space. I believe that it's lot #9. I'm temped to bring the RV as a place to get warm in the parking lot but I know you guys like to gamble, etc..
:) We are still going to Foxwoods.. I am not having any luck booking a room in the area..I tried Priceline,Hotel.com and foxwood's hotels they all seemed to be taken..:confused: Must be a busy hotel weekend? Tony B
:) I found a hotel in New london ,as close as I could find,Raddisson a littlle pricey but they have 15-20 rooms left $159+for Sat 14th..If anyone wants the reservation number is 860-443-7000 If anyone wants to caravan from ny/nj/ct area email me at Beavertractors@cs.com for cell number or Nextel # Tony B
So just wondering how many people are going? Looks like a lot of people are backing out. Im coming form staten island if anyone wants to caravan down. Also any idea how far it is to foxwoods from here? and where are we gonna meet?

Another New Hampshire (New England) VX'er here. What's the current details for the upcoming meet? I may be game for an appearance.
As far as I can tell, we are still looking at 14 or 15 VXers. I always assume that things are going to come up last minute, or people forget, or the weather goes bad, etc, etc, etc. We should have a pretty good turnout, and so far it looks like it will at least be warmer than last year.:rolleyes:
We'll be meeting in Lot #9 at 11am, Saturday morning.
Foxwoods is right next to Mohegan Sun, about 90 minutes South of Boston. I would guess 2 hrs from NYC and maybe 2.5 from NH?
Thanks,
Brian
It's 125 mies from nyc, figure at least 3 hours travel.
Aww c'mon John, that's only 40+ mph. I know you drive faster than that.:p :rolleyes: ;)

I copied these directions from the Foxwood websiteFrom Hartford:
Follow I-84 East to Exit 55 for Route 2 East. Continue on Route 2 East to Foxwoods, which is nine miles past Norwich.
From New York:
Follow I-95 North to Exit 92 in Connecticut. Turn left onto Route 2 West and continue eight miles to Foxwoods. Tony B
Exit 92, left at light, at traffic circle take 2nd exit, continue to foxwoods.

Does anyone know where we are meeting (at which parking lot) and at what time?
actually, yeah, this is what was written on page two by BBVX of this thread:
Quote:
OK, we will be meeting in Emplyee Lot #9. I've been told that all the lots are clearly marked. On rte. 2 East, the first entrance stoplight will take you to Lot #9. If you are travelling on rte. 2 West, it will be the fourth light. There is also a garage very nearby so we can get out of the weather if it's too cold.
I also got the OK to use the teeter totter, so that should be fun. I hope the weather is nice, I think we're about due!
See you all there,
Brian
Any questions, let me know.
Have a good time everyone!!! :p
I hate to be a party pooper, but my girlfriend read me the riot act for wanting to strand her on valentines day and she has no interest in comming to the meet.

Brian, tried your Nextel direct connect, not working? Are you sure you sent the correct info? Mine is:
180*20970*18
You shouldn't need the 180 part, as we are on the same 'network'.
Well Gang, I may make this meet after all. However, I Probably won't get there until 12pm. See you guys then!
Hey Bantan, we'll see you there!
Dave,
Yeah, it should be right. Remember I said last night that sometimes when I put my phone on charge, it shuts off? Well I checked it this morning, and it was off. Try me again when you read this, or I'll try you.
IS EVERYONE EXCITED?!?!?!?!;Db; ;Db; ;Do; ;Dp; ;Dr; ;Dy; :jump:
BTW, Happy :heart: day!
