Mid Continent Get Together.

[Bravo25]

Just trying to feel the situation out. Is there enough people in the middle of the country that would want to get together?

 

[mut]

I would be interested.
Depending on when and location.

I guess it depends on how many would be interested. I am about as mid continent as you get, and there are a few good place around here for a weekend camping trip or something of the sort. Yet I wouldn't be opposed to traveling either. Just not all the way to the coast.

 

[mut]

Ya that is true you and I are about as mid as possible.
Mainly it depends on when.
Hopefully there will be more responses to help set a date and so forth. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/popcorn.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/popcorn.gif

I am interested. I live in nebraska. I know of another couple of cpf'ers in my area that would like to go as well.
Maybe we could even get Lambda to come! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[Bravo25]

I haven't really thought about a place yet or a time yet. Any suggestions?

 

[bwcaw]

How about Omaha, or Des moines?

Would this be a camping trip? (which I am up for) If so do you have any good places in mind.

 

[bwcaw]

I would like to camp as well, but I don't know of any places in desmoines, or omaha. I never go camping down there. There is a nice place in Onawa iowa to camp. I have been there a couple of times and it is a great camping area, if you like primitive camping that is. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

You mean there is another kind?

 

[bwcaw]

Well, there is car camping, and rv camping. Those aren't exactly "primitive". When I say "primitive" I mean, no bath house within reasonable walking distance, no snack shop nearby, it is primitive. If you need to "take care of bussiness" you have to do it in the woods. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Lots of great camping spots up in MN. And we're mid-continent also /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Be sure to see this thread for what looks like a good get together that is coming up in the Twin Cities. I'll be there.

I like the idea of going to a flashlight convention. I was wondering if any of the mafor flashlight companies will be represented there? Or is it for collectors who buy and sell old antique lights?

 

[Wits' End]

I'm planning on being at 2004 Flashlight Collectors Convention in Minneapolis, MN, May 7th & 8th.
looks interesting if it's new or old lights.

 

[Bravo25]

I am thinking of going. I am unable to confirm this at this time though.

Hmm, seems the interest has died out by the time I found this thread.... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon23.gif

 

[Bravo25]

No not died out, just not fully planned yet.

 

[JonSidneyB]

I might show up. I think it would be really interesting to see old and new lights.
