Seattle Area Meetup 8/13

[MrPopo]

So I've been tossing around the idea of doing a Seattle area Racketboy meetup; we've got a decent number of people out here and I think it'd be fun to get together. When I was having lunch with Stark he said something that reminded me that it's getting close to summer, so let's see if people would be interested.

I'm thinking a get together on a weekend at my house. I can grill us some eats and we can play video games or board games (I've got a large dining room table) or any other such commiseration.

So who all might be interested, and what weekends would be good for people?

[Stark]

I'd be down.

I'll have to look at the calendar at home to see when I'm available. Off the top of my head I know May 28th won't work and a week in late August is out for a family reunion. If I have some advance notice I'm sure it'll be fine.

I'd be interested if my boyfriend could come with me. I would still be interested you would prefer that he didn't, but it would be a little more difficult for me to get there as I can't drive

As for days... I can't this weekend or next weekend, and I have plans on June 25/26 and July 2/3 weekends, but other than those days, I don't think I have anything else going on. I'm generally pretty flexible as long as notice isn't super last minute.

No worries on the boyfriend.

I'm definitely planning on this having a fair amount of advance notice. It would definitely not be before June.

Wish I was still in Seattle... Hope you guys get to meetup.

Sounds like fun! I may be starting a new job soon, which will make my schedule unpredictable, but most likely count me in.

Well, there's a poll now. Vote for your three favorite weekends, and we can drill down from there. I pre-cut out the weekends that I don't have free.

I am in the area, but there are also a few Racketeers in Washington that I don't feel safe around, so I don't think I would go. Besides, I've kinda stopped collecting - sure, I hang out at local retro stores often, but I'm not actively expanding my collection anymore. I'm also not posting here much anymore, and I would only want to meet a couple of nice people that I remember for old time's sake.

As 1 of like 5 people I know of that are around here, that makes me sad that I could be counted among this number. Maybe there is nothing I could do to change the perception, but please PM me if I am the one to have offended you.

You should come! I got your back yo!
