ladyfingers: Probably won't have trouble finding a place to stay at the last minute. I'm like you, waiting until it is a sure thing. Even if only 10 show up, it will be fun...we'll fit in more places together..(I mean have room for us all..oh heck, you know what I mean).
I do agree, and I did mention from early on, not to book anything till it gets closer to the date, thats just Wisdom.....
We all know in this life, anything can happen!!!!
tho I still have a positive attitude and see it being a Great meeting Place an the Sky is the Limit... but mostly it about getting to know one another, Just that i have been aweful busy... in my own life. But Being Optimistic!
HotrodLarrys: Sorry I havnt Responed lately, I made A Trip to Germany for 11 Days... and been Quite Busy as well....

I just realized that Slim and I won't be able to make it. It's really not a surprise with the way some of these trucking companies have their OTR days and home time days policies...
For those who are still planning on attending, I hope you all have a wonderful time socializing and maybe even some "connecting" going on!
In response to: The United States Get Together NW Kansas City, Missouri April 9-12th 2010 At 5:00 PM Just inside the main door and lobby there is a Bar with Happy Hour From 5:50-7:30PM, every day
Original Thread Started By Tennjudy.... and was Suggested to be in the geographical center of the United States, is Lebanon, Kansas.... A Ghost Town, I passed it a few days ago... Kansas City International Airport is the closest large airport, so determining it was Kansas City, Mo. I was honored to be asked to handle this Get Togather by Tenn Judy, as I live within reason from the Airport.... I went to the Airport Hotels and literally walked thru and looked at the setting, and for a big group of people Embassy Suites was the only one (out of six) capable of a large gathering, The setting was Fabulous, Roomy, and Peaceful.... It was The only one of about 5 that could handle fifty to a hundred people, and I have no clue to HOW MANY we will be!....
Anyone flying from a long distance, east or west coast, the estimated cost would be from $600.00 to 1200.00 if you reserve as a Package Deal (Airline and Motel, with round trip tickets), rental cars etc. is more, These are Suites, that have 2 beds, and Fold out sofa, so some could share expences with another and save alot..... I had to start another Thread to get the sign up sheet! tho someone going a hundred miles would just drive and just get motel fees, and cost substantially less...Embassy Suites-Kansas City International Airport Location
I would suggest Travelocity.com for Price quotes etc... I would also not buy tickets yet, in case any minor changes or discounts apply....
There is a 3:00 AM bar across the street, and one could crawl back to their room if necessary... There is a Free Breakfast , to order, every morning, has about 4 other smaller Motels within walking distance, a Waffle Shoppe, and a Ruby Tuesdays Bar and Grill within a couple blocks..
There are Big Meeting rooms that can be rented if we so desire and pitch in for it, Indoor Pool and about 10-15 Miles to Downtown Kansas City, Missouri
This is The best I could do people. Please lets all Be kind, Meet, and lets make this the Best USA Get together so far!
i wish i come come,but april is starting of planting time here,maybe next time i cam come,,hope everyone has great time,enjoy yourselfs

Campanulist: Is there an itinerary of events for that weekend yet or is it just an open kind of thing?

Tho Someone sugested a pool Party, as it is in an enclosed Secondary Area....
But Yes it Was Left Open for this reason, so it dont interfere with anyones thoughts....It Is Totally Open to those Involved who do come.... and Thanks For asking....

Sorry Larry, I'm just not going to make it. Lack of cash to pay for it. It seems that new bills are popping out of the woodwork. I was looking forward to seeing everyone too. Well, maybe next time.

A New Surprise, as I found Out Yesterday, a Dear Friend Broke His Neck in 2 Places and His Back in 1 Place... He is in The Mayo Clinic in Minnasota, and Scheduled for Surgury Tomorrow.... He is like 78 Yrs Old, and about 350 Lbs, and been on 2 canes for over 10 yrs.... so, All Of Your Prayers would be appricated... By Him, and His Family...
As we never know what tomorrow Brings..... and again, I may only be able to come for a Visit ... and if anyone would want to Step Up.... To Oversee this Get togather, as I cannot be there the full duration...... So Please let me know, and Just because My Life is Changing Daily, dont mean To NOT Come... the Place is still there, and as far as I know, Many still plan to attend...
Several Others have also had a Change in Plans... But if you are able... Sign up, and Join Those who Plan to attend...
