I'll volunteer Powerpig to setup the one in our area, it should be a downtown DC one, we haven't done one there yet.

Someone asked about dates earlier. Saturday, May 30th sounds like a good date, weather should be decent around that time, and there should be no conflicts with graduations and such.

The timing sounds good. I've just been trying to figure out the best general area for the New England area. So far I'm thinking White Plains NY or somewhere in Fairfield county CT. Any thoughts?

You don't meet after April and you say that you "party like its hot"?

We do it big here in Texas. It can be almost 100 in the shade and we can get a turnout like this:






Texans party when it's hot.
