Great Lakes and area DUers! How about a meetup? |
|
We've been talking in the Ohio forum about meeting up on Saturday, April 30th in Cleveland. If there's interest, those of you from outside Northeast Ohio are also welcome!
I am currently working on the locale, and I will try to find some hotel options for those who want to come but will have a long drive. PM me if you are interested in attending. Let's join Boston and Atlanta in adding to DU networking!
Keep this kicked so that everyone gets a chance to see it. Feel free to PM me with any suggestions too.

2. Y'all should consider a run north on June 18 (hint hint) |
|
Saginaw is just two hours north of Toledo. And I'm buying the beer. John And the food. And I'm paying off the cops (thankfully, we have three Tim Horton shops here).

7. Not really a "meet-up" |
|
More like a beer- and etc-fueled baccha--, bacha--, bocca--, um, party. It's called "FUNDAY," this is the eleventh edition, and there'll be music from the Grateful Dead, should that help you make up your mind to attend. John Pre-recorded, not live. But the beer and the etc are for real.

'Bout damn time there's an Ohio meetup. Thanks for putting this together, E.P., and further thanks for conveniently locating it in the city I live in!

I'm right in Cleveland. The burbs would work too. Let's here from others that want to come out so we can see what would be a good place.
On edit: PM me if anyone needs any info on places. Just offering my services here.

13. A kick for the weekday morning folks. |
|
Estimated Prophet - have you posted this in the New York, Michigan and Pennsylvania forums to see if there's interest from the Buffalo, Detroit and Pittsburgh/Erie folks? Those are all within an easy couple of hours drive.

15. By the way, did I mention this is open to everyone? |
|
If you're form Michigan, come on down! Indiana, Kentucky, West Virginia, Pennsylvania-you're welcome too. Canadians, sure, come on down. Hey, if you're from California and you want to fly in, let me know and I'll get whatever info you need... But NO ONE FROM MADAGASCAR! Kidding... April 30th. Mark your calendars. We'll have big fun.

17. Let me know if the date changes |
|
April 30th's no good for me but let me know if the date changes. Any other time, I'd gladly make the drive to Cleveland for a meetup.

23. That weekend won't work for us. |
|
And my hubby would jump at the chance to head back to Cleveland without seeing his family in Massillon. So would I, for that matter . . .
That's the weekend for Eastern Orthodox Easter, so we won't be going anywhere. Sounds like fun, though!
