    Thanks for your input, Cheryl. There's a few who would prefer to meet on Fridays instead of Thursdays and I'm open to that. I'll be sending out another poll regarding the pub meetings soon. If you haven't already taken the poll for the 1st meeting, please do so because the day (Thurs/Fri) is still tied!

    On Tues & Thurs, because older child works, younger child (11 yrs - she is quiet and well behaved) will also attend meetups, so I'm afraid a bar is out for us. (Any other time a bar would be great!). Coffeehouse is good. You should probably make your decision based on what everyone else wants because if the meeting is not fairly close to Nazareth, where I need to be at 8pm, we probably won't make it. Thanks :o)

    I vote for a bar as the meeting place :) (I don't get out enough!) Looking forward to meeting everyone!

Who attended?

    •  I loved the venue & the people I met. Natasha helped everyone feel comfortable and welcome. There was a lot upbeat positive energy flowing...It was a good evening.... 
    •  It was fun meeting everyone! 
    •  I had a great time meeting everyone over drinks, sharing laughs and travel/outdoor anecdotes, and generating a great list of ideas for future Meetup events. This group has a ton of potential and I expect it to get better and better each day as more people join and more events are scheduled. Natasha, again, congratulations on organizing such a successful 1st meeting - you made everyone feel engaged (not as in married, lol) in the discussion and created a fun, social atmosphere for discussion. 
    •  Great mix and mingle meetup, there was alot of input for future venues, looking forward to new outdoor friends w/ mutual interest.

       I thought the first meeting was great to plan out trips locally or a little further away and to see what everyone's ideas are for the group. You may want to explore more than others but there were quite a variety of interests/ideas being presented to the group! 
    • MARIA MURASSO (+1 guest)
       I want everyone to know just how lovely it was to meet all of you and what a great time I had. I can't wait to join in the activities and have fun! Natasha is a fabulous meeting organizer with great social skills and really took into consideration all the suggestions the members had to put on the table to make the group a success. With Natasha's travel experience and so many people looking for ways to travel and do "weekend stuff", this group is an "A" list choice and one many other Meetup members should consider.
