Interest in meeting

[charlie]

I`m in the hunt to find out if there is any interest of planted tank hobbyist getting together - monthly /bi monthly  etc,this would be a loosely organized gathering where people with a interest in planted aquariums can exchange ideas, experiences & anything related to planted aquariums, it will be held at some public facility to be determined.
Please note that this would not be in anyway associated with the club(OVAS) or any LFS or other, no interest in promoting any site or business, just a simple group of like minded hobbyist learning from each other experiences,please indicate via the poll your interest.
Regards
Again this is not promoted or associated with OVAS or any LFS.

Good idea! A long time has passed since our last planted-tank gathering ...

[wish_Fish]

depends on the date and time.. would try to be there indeed!

[cichlidicted]

Same here .. time is an issue for me ... I know ovas monthly meeting are in conflict with my classes ! ill try to come  for sure when i can skip ..

[zima]

I would be interested, depending on time and date.

[Fishnut]

I would love to attend another Plant get-together!  It will depend on the date and time, but I'll make an effort to be there.  Tuesdays and Wednesdays are no good for me but otherwise I'm good...not that I expect it to be scheduled around my schedule .

[wish_Fish]

i was wondering if weekends would be better...

[Jovnik]

Count me in! But I work evening shifts and for me only weekend is good...

[Anja]

I have a lot of monthly stuff in my calendar already, so would prefer bimonthly or once a quarter. I also think  that less frequent meetings would be more likely to retain interest over a longer period. Weekday evenings for me would be ok except Mondays and Thursdays.

[karjean]

It would be an interesting get together, but i would also prefer it to be either every 2 or 3 months.

This response is looking promising, i`m liking the idea of weekend & every 2 months.
So here is what i`m proposing - A Saturday late afternoon say 5.00 PM ish , any suggestions of a mid point location that would be conducive to us chatting , perhaps showing of a short video, having a bite etc(( Busy & loud places would not work)
Lets hear your suggestions
Regards Errol

Last night at the meeting they were several inquiring minds, so how about if we shoot for Saturday May 15Th 5.30 PM Summerhays Baseline & Woodruff or some other place you guy`s can suggest?

[zima]

A tentative "yes" for me. Thanks for coordinating this, Errol!

Saturday May 15Th 5.30 PM Summerhays Baseline & Woodruff

That day would work for us. Might be a chance to find out what they serve past 12pm ...

I second that and. 

[RebeccaB]

Sounds like fun. I am a tentative yes!

[wish_Fish]

not sure if i can get that sat off since i will have to have the weekend after off for the convention. 

[fortunateson]

I will be there just name a time and place.....

[sas]

I'd love to take part if I could hitch a ride from someone in my area. I'd definitely help with gas.
Hubby usually drives in with me to meetings but I don't think he'd be impressed having to sit
through a bunch of plant enthusiasts talking greenery. I think I might be pushing it.

[Fishnut]

I'm a yes for that date and time.  I'll be happy to bring my laptop if we need to look at a video on DVD.  As long as I can plug it in though...the battery is 100% dead
