Not sure if my memory is serving me properly here or I am getting confused with other and/or older boards, but didn’t there use to be gatherings/get-togethers from time to time?
I think it’d be pretty great if we had one every so often for different regions (quarterly, bi-annually, annually, whatever works) like SouthEast, NorthEast, West Coast etc.
We could make a weekend out of it. Different folks could offer seminars (not over-priced fancy things, but affordable for tcma brethren [and sisters too]), with social/hang-out time etc.
I dunno - just trying to think of ways to meet folks here offline.
I’ll see you Sunday BTW after training with Big Al.[/QUOTE]
Very cool. Both you and Frodo (now I can’t remember his real name lol) gonna do the Xingyi? Then you can train with us for a bit of bsl? and then join me for a pint or three afterwards…Or am I gonna be the lone soldier at the pub again?
[QUOTE=Northwind;1057584]Great to hear about the events, however too far and $$$ for me here in GA.
I know that people do randomly bump into each other at events, but kinda thinking about making specific get-togethers.
Sean - if we’re able to hang (Sunday?) this is something I’d definitely like to discuss with you.[/QUOTE]
Nah we’ll hang for a minute. $$$ is tight like ugly sheep in North Alabama though. May have to just hang there & hopefully Frodo won’t have to go bail out a little raver chick this time.
I would offer to host a event at my school. I have 7,500 sq feet so pleanty of room, showers locker rooms the whole nine. also everyone could visit Niagara Falls the next day as it is 15 minutes from the school. let plan for spring?
Big “telltale signs” for me is how someone gets in and out of a car. Also, I can spot a sword practitioner a mile away if they are cleaning their windshield at a gas station!
