Hi there ...
I have been working on locations for the next summer FTF.
This one will be an east coast one. What I am suggesting is everyone post their top 3 choices for a location. Please be advised I have already heavily researched both Boston MA and Providence RI. Both of those spots are already hosting major conventions during our FTF dates and prices were out of control. Example being Boston , cheapest rate from over 16 hotels was 279 a night.
So please give me your suggestions below and I will then run the top 3 by Lee and Sandy. Once they give me the go ahead I will get us a sweet deal. Thanks all.
** I am going to let this poll run into September to make sure everyone has a chance to respond. ** |

East Coast? Meaning NE? Some place we haven't been, we say.
Count us in, wherever. |

I think the only hope of RSI approval is a place that gets direct flights from Arizona. So I'd recommend something near the three airport cluster in DC and Maryland.
Washington, DC
Baltimore, MD
Alexandria, VA |

I want to say the suggestion of Buffalo came up in KC and Sandy & Lee seemed receptive (think it may have been Lee's idea, but there was wine involved so I am not sure). SW has a non-stop from PHX.
No non-stop I can find between PHX and Richmond, so that might be a non-starter.
I'd be happy to assist with a NoVa or DC FTF if that's where people want to wind up.
Doesn't much matter to me where it is. |

I would attend in any of these. Vlad, Jack; I'm in Richmond. I think Darque is in Virginia too. |
