I want to gauge interest in a fall 2017 meetup somewhere in New England. Cast your vote if you are interested, don't need to know if you would be able to attend. Just want to know if you're interested.

This is obviously in the, wonder if people want to do this, stage and still has a high likelihood of not happening. But with some interest, I may be coaxed into planning something.

Yeah, I'm leaning toward just some simple camping, campfires, chatting for the first go around. I wouldn't mind a day trip but that becomes limiting cause some folks would have to drive a couple hours just to hang out for a couple hours then drive a couple hours back. But it's an option.

I agree. I'm happy to go with any scenario. Thanks for helping put this together and I am excited for more details to start to take shape over the next several months.

If this becomes an Overland Bound event, I'm sure @Michael could help out with some goodies like he did when @Overland-Indiana put together an event last summer.
Absolutely! We would be happy to send a package of stuff. Dare I say, I think there are more east coas OB members than westcoast!


Hey @finlayforprez , you got trolled pretty hard in our latest YouTube video. Not sure if you have seen it :tonguewink:

Howdy @Michael !!! That would be awesome. I love building up the east coast OB community, especially since I am bicoastal.

What is trolled hard? Sorry I don't know what that means? Is it bad? I think I missed it.

@Michael That would be awesome. We should chat when we figure out more details and have a better idea of what this will look like.

I'd be down, live up in Maine near Portland. Depending on size I do have a 5 acre plot near Sugarloaf ski resort I'd be happy to offer as a base camp unless the crowd is huge.

Good to know, I will let you know when we have some details to work with.

Yes very interested. You could plan a weekend trip but have a few meet and greet in different locations throughout New England leading up to the weekend trip. New England isn't really that big. I'm thinking a meet and greet in West Mass, South Maine and near the Cape would cover most of the New England crew. If you live in the middle you could probably go to all three.
