UHMU 2/UCMMU 2.5

Post by **xjsb125** » 1/9/2006, 9:43 am

I wanted to get a huge jump on planning this event out this year so we can get lots of folks to come along. Right now I'm aiming at the last week of July, or the first week of August for this event, at a yet to be determined location. I need some feedback on everyone's thoughts on the dates, and then some ideas on location. Location wise I've thought of Toronto; San Diego, California; Collingswood/Philadelphia/Ocean City; Myrtle Beach, South Carolina; Panama City Beach, Florida; and Vancouver. Thoughts, suggestions?

I think it should be taken to the west this year.

yay - glad you're starting to plan early! But for me if it's not in the Toronto area or within road-trip distance, I wouldn't be able to attend. All my money this year will be spent in Europe (which will hopefully include one or more European OLP shows), so I wouldn't be able to attend a meetup far from home.

Keep us posted on the planning

I don't mind where, though somewhere new would be kind of exciting.

However, I do need LOTS of notice cos that's the summer and flights will get mega expensive (cos they're not cheap at the moment).

Would it be possible to tie the exact week down pretty soon so I can book it off work?

Oh and if OLP are playing Europe that week I shall cry. A lot.Like this :crying:

Oh man. Could you imagine? That'd suck.

They will, too. Just to piss us off. :lol:

Oh, and all my fellow poor CMers/hubbers can thank me for suggesting we combine the UHMU and UCMMUs. :lol:

I will definately be in Vancouver at the end of July (around the 22nd I think) so thats where my vote goes.
Clearly the west coast has been neglected in the meetups.

If it happens in Toronto, which is probably more likely, I may be able to attend by delaying my flight home or something. It'll definately take a couple of different flights to get home, so if the timing is right I might be able to persuade a stop over in Toronto for a night or two.

I donno if the dates and that would work yet though.

I'll be so pissed if it's in Vancouver, because I've been chilling out on the west coast for three years with no meetups, and I'll finally be near ontario this summer.

I vote Toronto too! :happytears:

Somewhere in the states near toronto (being new york state probably) would be cool too, because I'll be travelling around and it's always cooler to actually leave the country when you travel.

Count me in, especially if there's an OLP show we can go to. I'll bring the kazoos!

Excellent!!! :lol:

And Josh, you BETTER come!!!

Post by **faninor** » 1/9/2006, 5:24 pm

I think any of the places Matt's considering would be great. I've never been back east or up into Canada, so that'd be fun, and San Diego is awesome... there's zoos and sea world things and you can go up towards LA for theme parks and LEGOLAND!

oh bah, another one already that i'll have to battle my way into being able to come to and probably lose at?

ignore the extreme awkwardness of that sentence, you get the general idea.

*prays that it happens on a concert date, which will slightly increase the probability of my showing up*

oh yeah, and i vote toronto too. because, well.

Johnny · Post by **Johnny** » 1/9/2006, 5:34 pm

Omfg!!! LEGOLAND!!!21@!one!!!@

I'm so there!~

nikki4982 · Post by **nikki4982** » 1/9/2006, 5:35 pm

Legoland would be awesome. I bet there's a lot of great photo ops.
