Midnight Sun Meetup

July 7, 2009 10:00 AM

I just discovered that there are a few Mefites in Anchorage, late enough to miss out on an "official" 10th meetup. Let's meetup anyway!

I'm free the next few Thursday and Friday evenings, how about the 16th? 17th? Then we can pretend it's an official 10th meetup. Venue suggestions: Humpy's, Modern Dweller's, Blue Fox?

I think the actual 10th anniv meetups are that weekend - am I missing something here?

According to the 10th deadlines Matt clarified, new city nominations were closed on 7/1. Since Anchorage wasn't nominated in time, this will be a Regular Old Meetup and won't be posted on the 10th subsite.

Oh my, you Alaskans are all mavericks!

Ah, I see. Thanks for clarifying, rhapsodie.

See if you can invite Sarah Palin. I hear she's free these days.

So, uh, where all my AK peeps at? I mean, the Palin jokes are fun* and all, but there were Alaskans on here just a few days ago. I swear.

*and old, really really old

I'd be game for something at some point...but am leaving tomorrow morning for a kayak trip (I meant it about those yurts being fun!), and am heading to the East Coast for a month immediately thereafter. BUT- I'd definitely show up for something during the school year, when I'm actually in town. :)
