So as far as approximate dates for a meet, anybody have any suggestions? August was mentioned, which is usually one of our more rain-free times.

With it being wedding season though, for me my only free Saturday's are the 1st and 22nd.

But if majority has the other 3 weekends as a better date that's fine, there just better be a cutout picture of my head to hold in a group photo.

September has been really nice the last few years as well. July might be okay but I know that's usually a busy month for a lot of people. May/June could be nice, but really unpredictable weather.
I think it's about time we answered back to those Cali boys with a meet of our own next year, perhaps later in the spring when everyone isn't so busy yet. It doesn't even have to be nice out if we decide to rent a banquet room inside somewhere.

Time seems to be a precious thing lately, I am so busy this summer! But I still want to have a meet sometime, even if it's just you and me, haha. I have so many boxes now it might be cool to join forces for a weekend.

Heck if the weather is like the last two years, late spring-early summer would be easy to do an outdoor meet. Maybe downtown Seattle or Portland? Unless there's any cool towns in between?

Auburn Eagles here in Washington state has a huge RV lot with hook-ups and a Bar on-sight!
I just got 2 more boxes, one for X-mas (Realistic SCR-8) and one that was given as a gift GE model,
Ohh + one single chassis GE 3-5280C I just could not resist as it's rare and pristine... I really scored on this one...

YES trippy1313,
it's a nice place to camp out and one of the bigger Eagle's Fanternal's which has an RV park. We should do this event no matter how many comes,,, (I have 5 to bring). It's located in south end of Washington state near Puyallup. Weather should be in good standing so we can set-up outside &/or under tents.

My X-mas's one (a gift to me from me) a GE 3-5280C is a wonderful single chassis box indeed. I just cannot believe what an E-bay score this really was... 94% graded! Sounds great for a "single chassis box" and to find anything in this shape at all!
Will post pics as soon as I get them loaded on Picturetrail

Yeah, I know where the Auburn Eagles is. Right at the bottom of the Muckleshoot hill. Not bad, there's the park a mile down the road too.

Which park?
I was thinking along the lines of folks wanting a place to stay for the weekend as well. I'ts safer than a public park as too many homeless campers around now...

I just meant hanging out during the day we could do like a lunch at a park. There Les Gove Park across the street and Game Farm Park a couple miles down the road.

WOW soo impressed with the interest here, I will contact them for cost on renting out the RV spaces as I am NOT a member. Otherwise find a different spot.
