Are people in Florida up for a gathering in May

#1 Postby boca » Sun Jan 22, 2006 9:11 pm

I tried this several times and it never works ,but it's still January and I'd like to meet some of the Florida members of the board I think it would be great. We did it back in Nov of 2004 and 9 members showed up including our famous Mike Watkins. I'm up for anything because I know its tough especially with kids and I'm sure we can work something out. Please pm me with ideas.

I figured I would start mid January so I would give people more than enough time for this gathering. I figured Central Florida meeting place due to members in the Keys to the panhandle. All Central Florida members please pm me some ideas for a meeting place since all as I know is Disney World up there. I wish we all had storm 2k shirts to wear so when we finally meet we'll recognize each other.

Thanks to vbhoutex their is a storm2k store which we can buy shirts so its easier for us to see each other when we decide what were doing. Feederband suggested Seaworld trip which I think is a really good idea. If Seaworld is like Disney World than the tickets can be expensive. I was just up there Jan 8th and a 1 day ticket was $60 per adult. I don't know if people would be willing to pay that much for a gathering, but will see. keep the ideas coming.

Hey I got seaworld passes. You can pay admission for one day and get in the rest of the year free, its called a fun card. If you just go one more time its worth it, we have gotten the "fun card" for the past 5 years now. I would love to come see my fellow S2K friends. :D And SeaWorld is a great place to do it, fun and laid back, and they sell beer. :wink: lol.
61.95 for adults there and 55.95 for adults if you buy tickets on line.

I think I would like that! Like everyone else, I would need good notice! I am outside of Orlando, so that would work for me!
