Meeting in the Netherlands

robbierob2005 · 03-08-07, 06:40 PM

I've read on subsim there were meetings with subsim-members.

What about one in the Netherlands. I know there was one in 2005 but I missed it

What do you kaleuns feel about this!

So why not a meeting in Germany/Laboe.

Who is in favour

Experience in the past shows that one first needs organisers. Create a programm (which will not be final ever), spread the word around, and then only at the last moment people will let you know they will be coming.

Having a vote will result in many pro votes, but of those people 99% will not show up at all. But a vote could very well be used to establish what the general feeling is on having the meeting in country X, or continent Y.

I have also learned that it is a must to have locals living in the area the meeting is held. it will improve the experience a thousand times ! And makes organising it so much easier.

The US is a bit to far for me. I'll have to cross the atlantic for it. Perhaps 2008 in europe?

Here's an idea:

Normandy, France, say July 14th. I am there on holiday anyway. I heard the French subsimmers are a rowdy fun bunch. Seems like the place 2b 2me
