Dec. 6, Toys For Tots meet

[omegavx]

Yeah, I can't make saturday. I wont get done till saturday around 8pm. Then I plan on driving to where ever we decide and probably spending the night close by. Then I'll be there all day sunday for the meet and will either stay sunday night some place and drive back monday. That's why I said Galena, Chicago etc. is fine even though its alittle farther. Cause I can drive part of the way, if not all the way saturday night.

We just need to decide if sunday is the day and if so where we're gonna meet and what we're gonna do

akchem,
I am having a problem with Saturday. It looks like I am going to start new classes THIS oncoming weekend, and since it's only 6 weeks course, I cannot miss it :/

Sunday I could make it if you tell me early enough, so I can take off (just a suggestion, but doable) or I could join you after work - leave at 2 p.m. and get wherever you will be at the moment in no time... I mean time to drive.

I do not know exact schedule yet for the 6th, but it is highly probable I will be stuck at school 'till 4:30 p.m., which sucks.

Please, let me know what, where and what time, so I can plan something. And would anyone give me a cell # in case I would have to catch up with you? Please...

I'm leaving the final decision as to what we are going to do and where we are going to meet up to you guys. If we can't get a final decision by wednesday, I'll probably put in a reservation to stay up near Longgrove Village (http://maps.yahoo.com/maps_result?ed...ois&country=us). I've been several times and its a nice little place to go and get some apple cider donuts, chocolate covered strawberries and do some christmas shopping

I havn't been in a few years, but I know there were a couple of really good restaraunts in the area. A good german place, a really good old style pub etc. If all else fails we could just meet up and have lunch/dinner around chicago or longgrove on Sunday.

Anyway, let me know what you guys decide.

sounds ok, at least I will be able to join everyone either day

hey, it would be nice to get some response from the others... nocturnal, Analog? knock, knock....

Sorry I haven't replied. I have been trying to work out some details concerning my daughter's visitation and my weekend work schedule without making commitments for that weekend. It seems all will work out OK and Sunday would be the better day all around for me too. I was talking to Nocturnal and kicked around meeting at the Dave & Buster's in Schaumburg? Kick some tires, have some dinner and drinks and play a few games? It would be cool to try and meet up early enough to still catch some daylight...say around 4pm? Anybody want to meet earlier chime in.

[nocturnalVX]

Yup... as Rich said, we decided to meet up on Sunday at 4:00 for a little VX show & tell, and then move the party indoors for some food/drinks/pool/gaming. The joint I thought was Dave & Busters is actually a Gameworks and is located at the Streets of Woodfield mall in Schaumburg.

I hope everybody can make it! See you there!

Sounds good to me, btw drop me your cell phone number just incase I get lost

Woodfield mall huh? I could get a little Christmas shopping done beforehand and the meet up with you all for dinner.

[yal^]

very nice
although my schedule changed again and I am free Saturday and Sunday, but D&B is good too.
If somebody would like to make it double meeting - both days, I am open to proposistion. Especially that I am skipping shoping completely this year, I'll be free. If not, I'll see you Sunday in Shaumburg

[Capri]

def need to make it closer to Michigan next time!!

[nocturnalVX]

O.K. Capri! I knew there were VXes in Michigan! I think it'd be kewl to road-trip up to meet in your neck of the woods.

[andy454]

closer to MI would be better for me next time. Perhaps we could all get to gether somewhere on the other side of the lake. Just too far right now. Hope the meet goes well.

Since we aren't meeting down in Attica, In. for the Toys For Tots event at the Badlands, I thought I'd post a way to make up for it...

The Great Lakes Jeep Thing 5th annual Toys for Tots run is Dec. 14th at 10:00 A.M. I guess you have to register, so click here for their home page...http://www.gljt.org/ The parade will start at the 31st Street Beach parking lot off South Lake Shore Drive. All 4x4s are welcome, and I plan on being there early to show off the VX. I'll be posting this info on the Wire as well, so anyone that wants to come out for this event also... KEWL!

See ya Sunday!

Just trying to get everyone together. Seemed like Sunday is the best day.
All is not lost for Attica, however. Check this thread http://www.4x4wire.com/forums/showfl...t=1#Post400501
