The MoM is an annual gathering of members of the Eunuch Archive community. All registered members are invited to attend. This is your chance to meet face-to-face with those folk whose posts you have been reading and with whom you have exchanged private messages.

As we get closer to the event, River will provide more details, including maps to the various locations and a list of those who are planning to attend. He will need an email address for you that will accept attachments for the maps and schedule. A number of us will be staying in the same motel (about midway between Kristoff’s convent and the Mothership, the neighborhood where River, Gem, & Talula reside.)

(I edited River’s post to put this right at the top of the thread.)

I would think that the earliest the date can be established the greater number of members could attend. Scheduling time off, saving money and providing feedback as to interests for the MoMs. I sincerely hope to make it to the next one. I missed everyone.

Wow it is time ready to plan the 2011 MOM. Just got back home from this years MOM 2 days ago.

Yes I will be at the next Midwest MOM. I love to BBQ.

Annual events like this need to be planed a year in advance/

Fail to plan, plan to fail.

Thanks all, I just received my MoM card. I liked the art work. At the risk of tarnishing my reputation I think I recognized a good number.

By my calender, the dates should be August 5,6 & 7, 2011... But that really depends on Kristoff, Jesus, Riverwind and Talula.. With their blessing, it could easily be set at that date soon.. But the ball is in your court right now. The date is not one persons decision.. Many contribute in that date.. So talk it up.

I would like to see a poll on this question, if I knew how to set one up I would.

Last week in July?

Aug, week 1

week 2

week 3

week 4

NOT labor day weekend,

Sept. week 1.

Other ?

I think it is important that we do move the date from the first week in Aug. as their are some people that have other things happening and can never attend at that time, this would give everybody at least a chance.

Also we need to plan some other events besides just eat and chat. We need some ideas from you younger members, (younger members meaning if your in your 20s and 30's). We need to change up the Sat, Sun menu, I for one don't mind making pancakes but we are in a rut, we need a new diet plan for that weekend.

Mostly we need a committee to help plan this event. So feel free to contact me, or send me your ideas, keeping in mind that I only need 4 or 5 people for that committee all ideas will be considered and any member of the Archive is welcome to come.

The main thing is to make it work for the locals, which is only logical.

Also, as Jesus has been so incremental in getting the professional community to acknowledge "our existence" as valid, we must have a date that he can attend.

I think everyone can see the sense in this. I will try and post a poll! Right now it's arguing with me.

Please vote only if you plan to attend!

Please vote!

Wow, that wasn't easy to set up!

That poll is in trouble now, the EVIL Overlord is on it.

Yes, I totally agree, the date picked must be a date that Jesus can attend. He is the one person that must be here.
