If we go can we get a ride in the lesmobile?

Just so I can feel what it's like to throw someone out of a moving car

I might be interested in attending, if there are firm plans for a venue. Got some Southwest points laying around and I always enjoy a trip to NYC.

NEvermind, plane tickets are too much right now.
traaaaaaain

Sorry, i don't have three days to travel to NYC.

hwood34 · « **Reply #403 on:** Fri, 03 July 2015, 17:47:40 »

OK so plenty of people have suggested that they have possible venue options but not one of you have gotten in touch with me. If we can't find something in a few days, I'll just find a hotel to accommodate us

Well maybe we could do it in Philly. That seems like more of a central point in between the main three states that people are coming from (NY, NJ, VA). PA is a pretty short ride by train from any of those places, a little longer driving but still pretty doable. It might be a little harder for really northern people or from NC and south though.

I'm in NC and could probably swing Philly NP.

Oooooo! Dates are set! Awesome!

I'm definitely in. Have absolutely nothing planned that weekend and I'd love to meet you wonderful people

. So pencil me down for one.

Re: Venue. Are you still looking hwood? And what kind of venue are we looking for? I go to a number of meetups, most of the ones in Manhattan are at tech companies though. Not sure if we would want to have it there, or if they would let us. If we're willing to go to Brooklyn or Queens and are looking for a more relaxed scene with drinks, I know of two wonderful bars with large, dedicated upstairs rooms that they rent out for events. No idea if they would be booked, but the one in BK gives the space out for $50 for an entire day for a local JavaScript meetup, so it's pretty affordable. I also know the meetup organizers, so figuring out how to contact about renting the place shouldn't be an issue. I'll read this whole thread tomorrow and catch up and then find some other suggestions, but PM me if any of those things sound nice hwood.

it's looking like it's going to hover around 20 people. if you have some decently sized room or cluster open-ish rooms that could work
