Hoosier Vapers Meetup July 14, 2012

[Hoosier]

Since I've already started a buzz about this I thought I would get this thread started. (I made a phone call that was discussed in the last webmeeting and it kinda' snowballed from there...)

Anyway it looks like there may be a special item for a raffle being donated. And that's all I'm saying until there are full details that I'm free to discuss.

We know the meetup is going to be east of Indy and our member/host is our own Raider Chick. We can thank her after the details of the location are all perfected, but I'm sure she won't mind accepting thanks for the effort she is putting in to secure a location for our next meetup.

So we know the date, July 14th, and we know it is in Raider Chick's neck of the woods, and we kinda' know someone is working on something special for the raffle.

Add details as you know them folks.

(And Raider Chick be sure to check your FB inbox for a special message from the Prez.)

Oh my surprises. I like surprises

 

[Kay1959]

As long as it's a 'Nice' surprise, I like them too!
Thank you Raider Chick! And everyone else, for all you do!

 

[lettucehead]

Oooooooooh, exciting!

Where exactly is Raider Chick's neck of the woods? Is it still near Indianapolis?
I have problems getting too far away from my base (3 kids under 6yo)

Please keep me up on details!

 

[colt45]

bummer another working weekend, maybe next time

 

[trepalium]

Yea it should be around the Hamilton county area (hopefully)

Somewhere in the Lawrence to Greenfield region.

Would you like to scout places for an August meet and suggest dates in/around Frankfort?

I know I will be downtown Indy Aug 16-19th and hopefully VaporPhreak will actually show up like he was suppose to last year...

Here's something else to consider folks. I saw another vaper club that was having a hotdog roast at a member's place. I think it was in Florida. I don't know how many of us have large enough yards, with space under a roof as backup incase it rains, to host such a thing, but I'm sure other members would be willing to pitch in and bring a dish or somesuch. I have the yard, but a small-ish house unless I cleared out the garage...hmmmm...

Raider Chick is the latest member to step forward and say she wanted something near her and is doing the scouting work. Anyone is free to throw stuff out. Send me a PM if you're shy and I will be sure to bring it up at the next meeting.

 

[Kay1959]

Would a 400+ acre farm suffice? Would a 3000+ Sq ft log house be big enough?
If nothing else, I guess we could all go down to Florida and raid their party! lol! No, but seriously;
I was going to ask about maybe having you guys come here some time, but thought you might not be interested because when we meet in public we 'get the word out there' better.

Edited to add: While I may live out in the middle of Nowhere, I am fairly easy to find. I live just off Hwy 59 past Carbon, IN

 

[Kay1959]

Have to add that I just LOVE lettuceheads avatar!! Too cute/funny!!

 

[Hoosier]

A little bird told me that Vapor Lock is up for hosting a meeting anytime in August....

Thought that was kinda' cool.

I think an early fall/late summer hotdog roast at Kay's place sounds great.

Edited to Add:
We have word that a vendor is going to be supplying some juice for the raffle and providing the Hoosier Vapers members a special coupon code. (Ya' know, just in case the winner falls in love with the juice they won like what happened to Mike at the last meetup with the cross-room-thrown juice.)

There are already 5 people signed up for the event on Facebook, which given how little time it has been up and how few details are posted about it, seems to be a great response to me.

I live between Lawrence and Greenfield. Kay suggested I visit here again Hoosier so blame her A weekend in July close by I could manage. At least I could meet some of you face to face and show you I am somewhat normal. I don't really do Facebook so let me know what's going on please.

 

[Kay1959]

Hey! Rockyroad! I see ya made it! Thank goodness! Now maybe you'll stop posting to yourself!
I'm not a Facebooker either, so everything will be posted on this thread as well. Welcome to our group!
Looking forward to meeting you!

 

[Glock Rock]

Hmm, well I'm still a bit new to vaping but I am in the area (Mooresville) and I think I might be able to make this. I'd love to show up for one. I've been eying you lot for about a month or two now...

Once there are more details, I might be able to see if I can clear the calendar for that day.

Also, Hoosier. The 16 - 19? Showing up for GenCon are you?

Yeah, well, you know, my avatar and profile pics are me in the cosutmes I was in for a couple different costume contests at Gen Con. (Avatar is the one we took first in the professional catagory.) Gen Con is an annual event for me and my family. The non-gamer wife hits the Yoga, Pole Dancing, Tai Chi, and Beer Tasting tours, plus we usually hit a ballroom or swing dance class together while we're there. Great times...

Now on to Meetup news:
The July Meetup will be at Whiskey Business at 11915 Pendleton Pike #D (strip mall). We are working start time, but we know a live band starts setting up at 7pm, so we will probably want to get started before that. Location info can be found at Home

I talked to Raider Chic last night about the location. It sounds like she has a dedicated room/table/space/something for us, but is going to go check it out today to be sure, as there isn't much info on their site. They sounded very welcoming to our group.

 

[Lethalp]

So very nice to see some females runnin round this thread! Not that I don't like my male counter parts, just would like more females involved. Plus the more the merrier, right?

A weenie roast in the boonies sounds right up my alley!!

I will also be at the July meet as well, as soon as we figure out where. Raider chic is quite the firecracker aye??

Thank you Kay... I don't have far to go for the meet up. I did map quest and it said a staggering 1.29 miles (4 minutes) It's a nice area with a few places to eat and shop. Now we just need to figure out who is buying the 1st round

 

[Hoosier]

I updated the FB event with the location; Whiskey Business at 11915 Pendleton Pike . Since they have a FB page it seemed to link to their page.

 

[trepalium]

We are going to have a crazy amount of swag from sponsors so make sure to bring some cash for the raffle(s). All proceeds go to CASAA. We have local shops as well as a good deal of online vendors so far. We would like to get a lot of people. Being friends, relatives, strangers. Lol

Well....atleast you can't give us the excuse that you couldn't make it cause your car broke down! I really hope to be there, and I will as long as we don't have hay down that has to be gotten up. Looking forward to seeing everyone! I guess I'll buy the first round Rockyroad, as I'm the one who invited you to this party. lol!
