Hey guys. This is the thread for the Midwest Meet and Greet, which I am working on. If done I have a few ideas for it but I would like input on it.

This is some ideas I have had that we can discuss/do:
  • Communication
  • Food
  • Gear
  • Home Storage
  • Security
  • Tactics
  • Weapons

Feel free to put your two cents in. But I would like to know which state it should be held in that would be convenient for you guys.

@carhugger_prep , thanks for stepping up to volunteer for this. Looks like you've got some good ideas, and the region has a good amount of members, so we should get a good turnout.

Folks, contribute as much as you can to this thread. It's important that we get good feedback for the M&Gs if we are to get a good turnout. The better feedback, the better turnout, the better the growth potential and future for these events.
 
@alabaster , no problem and thanks for the support. I thought if I posted a list of topics that can be added to might draw more people to the M&G thus the following year might draw more people if this year turns out good.
 
For anyone that is viewing this the M&G will take place sometime in June so we don't have to deal with Memorial Day and the 4th of July. I have to pin down the exact day and the place where it will be held.

For the place where it will be held I have two places in mind. The first possibility is the New Holstein Municipal Airport, New Holstein, WI at this geo-coordinates 43.944434, -88.117329. The second possibility is South Bend, IN (the city where I live). But I am willing to choose a different location I just need a heads up so I can call the place or find a place in the city/town to hold it.

One final thought. A week or so before the M&G I will post a finalized list of things I think we can do or talk about.
 
Ok everyone I have locked down the date for the M&G. It is June 13 & 14 which is a Saturday and Sunday. But if you guys want it to be longer please comment below.

I need feedback from people who might attend about things I posted before. So don't feel shy.
 
I have decided to hold the Midwest M&G in South Bend, IN because it will be easy for me to set up things here where I live. I have several places in mind where I can try and host it.

If you want to come to the M&G message me so I know how many will be coming and I can make the final arrangements. Just be aware there might be a little fee because I might have to rent a room to hold the M&G. And anyone outside of the Midwest who wants to message me as well.

Whoever wants to come to the M&G it will be held at the KOA South Bend/Elkhart campgrounds. The address is 50707 Princess Way, Granger, Indiana. It has to be rented so there will be a small fee.
