National Specktra meet?

[Janice]

For those interested, an idea on a way to save money is to find a "roomie" for your hotel room. Halves the cost of your lodging, or you can probably save even more by having more than 1 person share your room if that works for all parties involved.

I am definitely down, sooner the better

[MACandie2012]

questions: everyone would be staying at the same hotel correct? and if so, would it be guaranteed that there would be room for everyone (are you going to reserve the hotel just for us)?

[Janice]

Once we get the when part figured out and can book probably minimum 10 rooms, I can make calls to a few hotels on the strip for rates and see about getting a group discount together on a block of rooms. At that point is when people attending will need to make their reservations. Most hotels don't charge a fee to reserve, but if they do it's usually a refundable charge (if you need to pull out) of the equivalent of one night.

If that group rate doesn't work out (we can't book enough rooms) then I would make a hotel recommendation for people to book. Vegas strip hotels are pretty large so we shouldn't have to worry.

Oooh Vegas, I'm there. I use any excuse to go to Vegas lol.

[TISH1124]

I absolutely would!! My bff lives in Vegas...always looking for a excuse to visit!! Anytime is good for me...

[Holy Rapture]

Now, when things like these happen, I wonder what on earth am I doing here ??!! Gosh, I wish I'd get there by some miracle But, anyhow, it's an awesome awesome plan you guys

[aziajs]

Very cool idea!

[coachkitten]

I am down anytime that it happens! Tickets from WA to Las Vegas are pretty cheap so I could head down anytime. I am SOOOOOO down for this and have hoped that we would do a Specktra meet up like this. Janice if you need any help planning I would love to help! I am down for this summer or early fall. The sooner the better. OMG this is going to be a BLAST!! Can you tell that I am excited!?! Time for the dancing bananas!

[KristyVictoria]

I'd be very interesting in going but can't be sure that it would be financially feasible at this time.

[Corvs Queen]

My hesitations are that it's Vegas. I don't drink, don't gamble and am not into strip shows. And, I have little man. He's a handful on his own and flying with him isn't exactly what I would call easy. I dunno. I would really like to do a meetup but at this time I cannot say yea nor nay. If I did come I would have to fly from Munich to Vegas and I would most likely go to North Carolina from there (because if I come to the States then I am for sure visiting my family), or fly from Munich to Charlotte to Vegas. Then from Vegas to Charlotte. Whew! Just typing that wears me out.

[joey444]

I would love to meet up and to me at least, the month doesn't really matter. You should do Miami....Oh yeah....Fun in the sun all year long!!

[Lauren1981]

^^ i'm game. all i need to know is when

[oracle1]

Would love to come, 2010 works better for me

[Willa]

I'd love to participate, this would be so much fun!
But it 2009 it's not the right time for me, I'm supposed to go to France this summer
If you do something in 2010, it would be great if it was in New York <3

[Janice]

I know everyone would like to have it close to them, please remember this is a thread about a meet in Vegas for now. Thanks!

I think your Vegas experience would be what you make of it. I don't drink much (socially and only a couple, I rarely get "drunk"), I don't gamble other than hitting the "spin" button on a couple slots here and there while in Vegas, and I certainly don't have an interest in strip clubs (not to say I would NEVER go to one ). There's plenty to do in Vegas without having to dabble in the illicit.

Does anyone have a good non-junk linked spammed out Vegas tourist website? I haven't been able to find one that is purely information on entertainment and things to do that's not trying to get you to click a million affiliate links.

[Kayteuk]

I am trying to organise one for the Europeans here, if you go to MAC chat europe it is in the process of being organised. Janice do you think you could advertise this one too? We cant have everyone across the pond having fun! :-)
