The 15th Anniversary meet will be in 2007. That's only about 3 yrs. away. Maybe we should get started. Forget Gunma....think Cherry Hill, NJ.

Cherry Hill is a great idea!

Bit of a hike for us midwesterners and quite the trip for westerners, but I like it!

I missed the last one because I was just a lurker at the time, but I will not miss this one.

I think it would be fair to everyone to have it somewhere near the center of the contiguous U.S. I wouldn't expect any of us Westerners to drive over 3000 miles one-way for a meet.

I agree with Deruvian. People west of the Mississippi would be rather turned off to drive that far for a meet( I understand that we ARE talking about a really big thing here), especially when some people would have to go out of thier way at all. I am all for the 15th Anniversary Meet but would like to see the meet be somewhere central, so everyone has an equal chance of getting there.

I agree it should be centralized. Topeka, Kansas and Lincoln, Nebraska are larger cities in the center of the contiguous states.

I like the sentimental value of Cherry Hill, but its not logistically possible to have a country wide meet there with good attendance.

According to Google (which I love FAR more than either Mohrds or Mr. Pockets), the exact center of the U.S. is four miles west of Lebanon, KS.

My wife was born in Lincoln, NE. She has a sister in Kearney and other family in Omaha and surrounds. Lincoln would be near perfect for us. :)

Speaking of self centered - oh, I mean centralized, that would be a little better. :)

:D Earl is a funny guy.:D

Keith

yeah...but
 

Looks aren't everything...


You should know that Keith!!! ;)


But looks aside,


I would do Nebraska... that's only one and a half states away from us here in salt lake...:cool:

Whats in Nebraska? Well, I think carhenge is there. :p

Yup, it is:

I have some ideas about the 15th Anniv. SVX Meet as follows:
1) I don't want to be the chief organizer "rabel rouser" for this meet like I did on the 10th Anniv. Meet. It is just too much for one or two people (thanks again Michelle). I think we should get a staff (commitee) together to organize and run this thing.
2) Since this is a major North American SVX Meet, it should be held somewhere in the midwest, preferably near a city; so KC sounds good.
3) This time we should hold it in early spring (cancel Reading for 2007) or fall. Mid summer is just way too hot in the mid west.
4) We should have SVXers who live in the meet locale on the organizing staff. They are more familar with the area and know the venues (ie: hotels, eateries, points of interest) first hand.

I will be happy to help, but there is alot going on in our lives right now.

To start the ball rolling, I'll start a sign-up list:
