Atlanta Vape Meet, February 18th, 2012

[kno]

It'll just be me, gotta leave the other guys at the shop... IF you guys are looking for prize donations PM me - also don't know if I'm breaking ECF rules by posting this - if so let me know and I can edit out the message.

I've added you to 'the list'!

As the 'official head counter' how many 'heads' will be coming with you?


BTW - Can you bring 'the beach' with you??

Ok, feb 18th is the wife's birthday, would like to go..... she just said yes as i was typing, but what are the costs? (minus hotel, alpharetta here)

 

[MikenGA]

Hi Blackross, (Alpharetta here, too...we're neighbors! )

As the 'head counter', I've added you and wifey to 'the list'.

There are NO FEES to attend the Atlanta Vapers Meet.

The "costs" are whatever you will spend for food and drink, plus whatever you might purchase from the vendors at the meet. (Bring cash.) We WILL be asking for contributions (ANY amount) to support the continued work of CASAA (Consumer Advocates for Smokeless Alternatives Association). Lots o KOOL STUFF is coming together in these final days of preparation, and we're gonna have a blast!

Plus...your wife's B'day is the 18th, and four days later, I'll celebrate my 60th! We have another guy coming that's celebrating his on the 24th. Maybe we should buy ourselves a chocolate CAKE to share?!?!

If you want to take advantage of the 'Special Rate' at the hotel linked above, you can make reservations through February 4th...or until all rooms are booked.

Lookin' forward to seeing y'all there!

Not bad for an Easterner!!
Sedona it is!

I went to University in Albuquerque!!! Also, worked for the University of Arizona for a couple of weeks one summer, assisting with a Physics and Astronomy camp hosted by the University of Arizona. Took an extra week to travel around. Can't remember the name of the Canyon, copper creek or something like that. Had dinner there one night overlooking the gorge, it was interesting as there was a large gathering of Wikans that evening. Also, when you study Geography and Archaeology in the SW it is all about the Four Corners!!!

And your Avatar appears to be the birthplace of stars, can't remember messier catalog number though!

Been a long time since my Astrophysics days!!! Memory is going soft, too much programming.

Hey hamdamann,

We would LOVE to have you, and I've added your name to 'the list'.

Also, if you're coming from the Charlotte area, you'll probably want an overnite room nearby. If so, we gotcha covered (thanks to ECF member 'limeandblue')!

It's probably important for me to emphasize the following:

All, there are still plenty of rooms available. I recieved a pm recently that someone said they tried to book and all were taken, but it is not true. Turns out you will have to call the front desk and set up the reservation:

Just an FYI, if they happen to run out of rooms, there is a Hampton Inn and a Country Inn & Suites about 3 - 4 blocks from Olde Towne. One's on Riverside Parkway and ones on Duluth Highway.

I love Sedona. Also spent time at/on Lake Powel. Most beautiful lake in the US, IMO.

 

[amandamaher]

[chatter97]

Sure. MikenGA will be along to add you to the list(he is the head counter).

Amandamaher, I have added you and Casondra to 'the list'.

As for whether or not we'll have room, we'll find out February 18th! (If we run out of room, we'll figure it out! )

Lookin' forward to meetin' ya @ 'The Meetin'!

 

[MikenGA]

GREETINGS TO ALL!!

CURRENT HEAD COUNT:
The total current head count of confirmed attendees is a minimum of 84 FOLKS!!!!!!
(I want 100+, and we've got less than TWO WEEKS to get'em in here! GET TO WORK!! )

Total number above DOES include 19 attendees from FaceBook (but not their potential guests): Does not include attending vendors: Does not include 20 ECF names that have not yet confirmed (nor their potential guests).

Folks, we're gonna have a VAPE PARTY! BE THERE!!



Just a friendly reminder: Because our VAPERS MEET is on a busy Saturday night at Old Towne Grill, AND because ALL ORDERS FOR FOOD & DRINKS WILL BE ALA' CART (pay as you go), it will be much, Much, MUCH EASIER and FASTER on you AND our 'wait staff' if payments can be in cash, rather than credit card.


I'll post 'the HEAD list' in a few...

EVERY VAPER IS WELCOME TO ATTEND OUR MEET AT OTG, but it's good to let us (the 'planning committee') know approximately how many folks you might be bringing with you...cuz WE have to deal with 'the management' of the location...and they will appreciate knowing in advance how many extra workers to schedule for that evening.
