Subsim Meet Idea Discussion

[GoldenRivet]

Hypothetically Speaking Of Course...

We already have an annual Subsim Meet

But what about a semi-annual - Regional Subsim Meet

we could split into groups like so...

Northeast Subsim (ME, Mass, RI, CT, VT, NH, DE, MD, DC, NY WV, PA, NJ)

East central Subsim (MI, IL, OH, WI, IN)*

Southeast Subsim (KY, VA, TN, NC, SC, GA, AL, FL)

South Central Subsim (TX, OK, AR, OK, LA, MS)

Southwest Subsim (NM, CO, NV, CA, AZ, UT)

Northwest Subsim (WA, OR, WY, ID, MY)

North Central Subsim (ND, SD, KS, NE, MO, IA, MN)

Once or Twice a year the subsim groups would host their own Subsim Meet where they would converge on a centralized location for a weekend of fun and comradeship. (not to coincide with the official subsim meet... and should be considered as an appetizer for the official meet)

We could all book rooms at the same hotel, we would designate a coordinator or "MC" so to speak... and since the event is regional, almost everyone in attendance would have transportation and/or cheaper travel costs as everyone would be more or less "local".

Each Group could participate in events for example... the South Central Group could go to Six Flags over Texas in Dallas... tour the USS Texas / Cavalla in Galveston or Visit Battleship Park in Mobile, Alabama.

Northheast Subsim could visit the USS Intrepid, or tour the USS Constitution. etc etc

The forum here could have new additions where members from each group could post plans, suggestions, ideas or itineraries. We would also post pictures of the events along with discussion and commentary etc.

Discuss amongst yourselves, personally i think it is a nice idea, and would be a bit of an alternative for those who cant travel across the country, continent or world once a year even though we might really want to.

I would be interested in hearing your opinions.

thanks
