Whoo hoo.. Jackson. Good deal. Went to college over by there (Albion) and I need to swing through the campus bookstore for a new hat. Old one's looking a bit rough, and never have an excuse to get over that way from Kalamazoo.

This should definately be a good networking opportunity!

:pimp

Little too far South I think for us Northerners :) 2 1/2 hr drive to Jackson from Central Michigan, but keep me posted for any Lansing get togethers.

If I still lived down state I would go in a heartbeat, let us know about other get togethers further north :)

You cant drive 2.5 hours to hang out with us?

HAHAHA, well, we will see, but I doubt it this time, maybe at a Lansing one or something.

e-mail sent.

:thumbsup

LadyMischief and I are in Toronto, but it'd be worth the drive. :thumbsup

Email sent

How far of a drive is that from Toronto?

about 4.5 hours about 300 miles

LOL, long haul for lunch!

its ok it will be fun

Kevin and the ARS staff is in Vegas, Marc and I live in Michigan.

Yeehaw, Jackson is almost 4 hours from me and next week is looking pretty hectic. I'll have a better idea of my schedule by Monday and RSVP then. Great cozy little get together and it's very generous of ARS to pick up the tab, I'll do my very best to make it out there. :)

Damn, July 28th is too soon. Would have liked to come back home for that one but I'm waiting for the next hurricane to skip town for a week.

hmm july 28th is my birthday and i got class from 4-9. ill see what i can do. weekend would have been better than a thursday. im in dearborn about 60 miles away.

Damn, we are going to miss it. We will be on a plane on the 28th... coming to MI. :(

I just picked the date out of mid air - hopefully we get a decent turn out. We can do these often, I have 2 nice fine dining restaurants in Jackson and Lansing. If these go smoothly we'll schedule another one soon! :)

I probably won't make this what with moving and my health in question lately... but I will certainly try!

oh crap, you're 5 hours (316.7 miles) away from me :Oh crap
sorry, doesnt look like i'll be attending :(

For a minute you had me thinking "nice way to attract some clients to his restaurants" :winkwink:

Now you can only hope this bunch of ass-wipes behave themselves so the restaurant doesn't get known as "the place where they fuck on the tables"

I wanted to make it to this one, but I am flying out early Friday morning To Gimli to visit Sleazy for the weekend. Hope to be there next time :thumbsup

I'm interested in midwest gatherings. hctmarketing (a t) gmail (.) com i'd be interested in attending.

Wow all of a sudden it looks like only a few people are going.

Definitely keep my email for the next one, or for one in Lansing.

Good luck on the gathering, I am sure it will be a great time!

Wish I could make it, but that date wont work for me. I have three models arriving that afternoon and staying through the weekend. If it has been on Friday, I would have broght all three to the party.

baxter at baxtersrealm dot com

so anyone still going? seems like the dates kind of a conflicting factor.

the date will always be a conflicting factor, most people werent going anyway buy make up excuses like "its too far" or "im busy that day"

im 90% sure i will go :)
