Liberty State Park----9/11/04 SVX Meet

[LarryIII]

I am starting to think of holding another SVX meet.
In 2004, Sept. 11 falls on a Saturday. I have been thinking of holding a meet on this day in Liberty State Park.
This idea has been rattling around in my head for about 2 weeks now. I can't shake it.
It reminds me of the way that the idea for the 10th Anniv. SVX Meet kept popping into my mind.

A meeting of this type would be different from all other meets. It would not be so joyous and would be more somber.

For those who don't knpw, Liberty State Park is in northern New Jersey across from lower Manhattan, just a stones throw from the Statue of Liberty.

I envion this as a small meet with approx. 8-15 SVXes.
I was thinking that we would meet in Liberty Park. We could get aquainted, talk shop, and look at all the SVXes. Then we would all take the ferry to the Statue. Tour the statue, and have some sort of quiet memorial.
We wwould return to the cars and then drive to a good restaurant for chow. There are many good eating places in northern NJ.

I would like opinions, comments and ideas from everyone, before proceding, to see if this is a viable idea for an SVX meeting and if anyone has interest or is opposed to it. I don't want to offend anyone or step on anyone's toes.
