    I have a few friends that might want to go (just emailed them); I'll let you know how many as soon as I know and if you give me a list of things people haven't volunteered to bring I'll kick those out of the park. Awesome meetup idea, by the way.

Who attended?

  • 130 attendees
    •  Fun evening, very casual and great environment to mingle with other groups. 
    •  The people were from several meetup groups and all friendly. I want to thank Amy and her husband who shared their lawn, house and dog with all of us. Many attendees are old friends from their having joined these different meetups a long time ago, but everyone tried to make you feel welcomed. This was my first collective outing. 
    •  Great idea, perfect setting, weather, and good company!
