I am waiting to hear from Lisa (Sukoshi's Mom) about her willingness to remain on the committee. Unless anyone objects, we already have a committee who worked very hard, from three different areas of the country, two of which are already willing to continue.
I want each of you to know that I've heard loud and clear what you've said. There are many regional areas with regular meet-ups that have 30-40 attendees (most of whom are YTers, just not posting ones) - some of whom driving 2 hours each way to get there. So, there are many areas that could justify having a YT meet-up there. And, we can't discount those who haven't donated as everyone has their own reason.
As far as cost goes, I have hesitated to say anything about this previously, but my hubby has been laid off for 10 months now. I make next to no $ with my clothing business, and my private clients are very low right now. We have very little savings left, still have a house payment and some of the highest gasoline costs in the country, and unemployment ran out a long time ago. So I think I am very qualified as one to be concerned about costs and one who should not have attended this year!!!!!
As soon as I hear from Lisa, she, Michelle and I will take a look at all of this again and determine where we go. My guess is there will be a poll listing coastal cities (both West and East) and whichever coast is not selected for 2009 will be the 2010 location........... |
Jodie, I know I wasnt there this year, but...
I think this years committee did a wonderful job. Everyone seems to have had a great time, you all worked hard, and donated your personal time. Bravo. I would be very happy to leave it all in your capable hands again. Whichever year the meetup lands on the East Coast, you can count on us to be there.
