44 people voting at the moment. That is going to be one HELL of a clan metup  :o

I am not really sure that doing a spring meet would work seeing as a lot of people are in school. I know I get done the end of May if I stay for the month long summer course. Isnt June considered Summer  ??? 

Anyways if it wont be in July then let it be in June. Please Eywa let it be in June.

Yes, June is considered summer...well at least in my book. That's when the first day of summer is. I was proposing a spring meet because myself and EVERYONE else from the June 4th group bought [expensive] museum memberships which will all expire next June 4th. I thought it would be nice for us to use them again for another meet but that's not happening. We already have our dates set at July 19-24.

What??? WHere is this poll you speak of? The one here in this thread is the same one I set a few months ago.

-Txonä Rolyu

Edit: Ok I see the results have changed but the question is still the same. Did you do that? If so how? You have to be at least a board mod (on this board) to edit polls...

And also to the rest of the committee....when did we decide to change the dates? I'm having problems loading the minutes from last week's meeting so i can't look at those right now, so if the discussion is in there, I can't see it.

We didn't.  I think the poll is the original poll from when the Spring was the preferred timing.

OK

To clear things up:

The dates have NOT changed. Most likely the meetup will be July 19-23.

There is no need for a poll at all because the meetup won't be in the spring. So I will probably delete it later tonight...

Indeed, we looked at a lot of data to pick these dates, and these were the best we could see to hold a meetup on.

That's what I had thought. As for why 'Oma Tirea was messing with our polls without asking us first I'm not sure. That was NOT cool  >:(
I'll remove the poll right now.

The polls have particularly unhelpful, as they were either kind of 'leading'. Or in the case of the one on the standalone thread, not enough choices were given, and the thread was locked to prevent further discussion.

Although I think July 19-23 are overall fine dates for the meetup, this is the one weened in the entire June-July period that I am most likely not going to be able to make (same weekend as the Feline Conservation Federation convention 9 out of the last 10 years). I will not know if this weekend works (or not) until January or February.

Ok, so here is my perspective here:

The poll in this thread was created really early on, before the dates were picked. The poll helped to see if people would be able to do July or the spring. It served its purpose and now is gone with good reason.

The poll about the dates (July 19-23) in the locked thread, is also serving a good purpose. The reason that the thread was locked is so that we didn't have mass chaos with people proposing dates all over the place and people dividing off about which dates to pick. July 19-23 has A LOT going for it and the point of the poll is simply to see if it works for everyone. Right now with all forums included we have:
YES: 43
NO: 4


How the dates were chosen:
School starting and ending in several countries right around this time. In one case classes gets out mid July and another case classes start late July
Weather (better in July)
Most weekends have an event going on in Seattle. i.e...July 4th, Bastille Day...ect

The dates are still subject to change at this point, but likely will not change.

The prime idea is to pick a certain date and have people plan around that date. Now that you have your initial data, that points to the aforementioned date, I'd say just stick with it and have everyone begin making plans for then. It's a little less than a year to that time and if everyone put away a few dollars a week, or whatever you costs may be, it is definitely way more than enough time to get everything together if people start now.

2 cents.

Mllte. I think this is why we wanted to get dates out quickly is so people have PLENTY of time to plan around them and save money and stuff.

I am glad we have almost set dates now. I will not book my flight til three months in advance so I will check in then. Of course I could see about riding up this time rather than getting stuck with a plane leaving me behind. That really sucked to miss the final meal and the flight this year... Anyways I am definately going to make it there this upcoming year.

If there are enough people willing to split, I think I can drive, take a path over to california/nevada, pick a few people up and just drive the whole way.

simple ideas, and depending on gas prices/government snafu's of the time(FAA shutdown), it might be cheaper.

Txura Rolyu

I would love to take a drive up California. Where do you live exactly?

I live in AZ, but when I was contemplating driving up this past time, my two paths were either to shoot over to Cali and drive up the coast, or to go up through nevada. Both ways being similar in distance.

Txura Rolyu

Well if you live near the 10Fwy you can take that straight to my school. Txonä and I will be attending school there, but I dont know if he will stay down here in California for the summer. He might go home for the summer break.

My suggestion for the fastest route to Seattle would be the 10 Fwy to the 5 Fwy. The 5 will take you straight there.

I'm not sure what I'll be doing next summer either at this point. I think wether or not I stay at Redlands will depend on what kind of work I find.
