| I could not make the NJ gathering. Are there any gatherings planned for NY sometime this year?

John <>{ Hi John,
I was thinking that if we did one, maybe it could be central to where most of the OFC population in NY is. I don't know where that would be though.
There is a good chance that I might be going to Moravia, NY (which is near Auburn) in October. Maybe there could be a place to meet there?
If all else fails, we could always go to Woodstock! :D

Did you check to see if OFCERs can get Meet & Greets
with Kaki?? |

I haven't signed up for the retreat that I want to go to yet. I found out that it is October 18-22, meaning that it is a Sunday through Thursday retreat. So I'd have to find a place to stay from Thursday night to at least Friday or Saturday night.
But I still wouldn't mind having a meet up there (Emerson Park) as I don't think we could have the meet up at the retreat camp (they limit the groups to religious, educational or non-profit groups).

We're educational too -- We even have to educate "wood box only" snobs!

Michelle [/QB] Might be a little chilly at the Lake in October, Michelle but depending on interest, I might be able to throw a little something here at my place. Let's see if we can get a gauge on interest, I'll check my calendar and we'll see if the moons are going to align... |

with Kaki?? At her concert here in Salt Lake last fall she did a meet and greet in the venue. It was sort of a dive bar kind of place that held a couple hundred fans. She was over by the merch table and was very patient in talking with me and one of my daughters, and autographing stuff.
I would be surprised if she is not available for fans to talk to her at the NY show. |

Where is Cicero, NY?
Ithaca is quite nice, from what I remember.

I've used MapQuest with varying degrees of success, though.
