Sports Bar is a good place to meet initially. But suggest that someone in our group may want to volunteer their larger room (maybe jacuzzi suite?) for everyone to open/play/share their new toys in more private/intimate setting ...?
Set one up it's not that difficult, or better yet talk someone else that's going the week you are and have them do it. T
Julie and I would love to join as long as it is in the evening time since we arrive at noon on the 27th. We are excited to meet everyone!
