I wouldn’t mind holding one, somewhere in the Philadelphia- DC-Charleston area.
It would be chosen because of its ease from I 95.

Yes, I’m a product of L.A. City schools (long ago, in fifties and sixties). Didn’t notice the leftists that much until high school, ending ‘67. A few actual communist party members were teaching then and it’s just gotten worse.
Back to topic, there are probably enough FReepers between Ventura, L.A. and Orange counties to hold a very decent sized meeting. San Diego County would do well on its own — there’s really bad traffic between L.A. area and S.D. and that short trip can take twice as long as it should.
RE: “Orange County might be perfect for all of SoCal as a central meeting place”

I’m in L.A. but you could be correct — O.C. would draw from Riverside/San Bernardino Counties, plus much of L.A. Even a few Ventura County folks might be persuaded to make that drive to O.C.
Reinstating old Houston FR email list, Jim.
Anyone wishing to be added, FReepmail me!
I think we should have a Missouri meeting. Definitely!
OK. Well, I'm in. We need to get more SoCal FReepers.
FYI HOUSTON FREEPERS! I’m now far north of Houston so we need someone to handle Houston proper while I take Spring, Tomball, Magnolia, Conroe.
Anymouse, you want Clear Lake??
Someone want Katy?
WHO wants Houston?
Forgive me if I’ve left anyone off my ping list.. Please contact other Houston area FReepers - if you know of any - others because my list is incomplete!

Got more??
Pls see Post #144. SORRY I missed you! ;-)
Maybe we should just take over the Petoskey KOA for a weekend! That would be fun.
Thank you so much for getting the MI notice system un-snafu’d! Many of us are already excited about planning a state get-together. Mille grazie!
For years, CPAC waived their normal booth fee ($2,000 at the time, as I recall) for FR, due to the large number of people FR drew to CPAC. This, sadly, is no longer the case.

I’ll be there if I can depending on schedule and timing. I’m thinking we’ll probably have a dozen or two regional meetings followed by a national meeting in DC. The national meeting might even include some sort of protest at the White House or Congress, ie, there are a lot of PO’d people calling for a march on Washington. Maybe we can get together with other groups and make it happen.
I’m not going to have the financial wherewithal to travel to each and every meeting across the country, but I’d like to be present at several. We’ll be planning on driving to DC, so I’d like to visit with chapters or FReeper groups along the way. If the timing is such that we can make a meeting, great! If not, then maybe we can get together for informal group meetings as we pass through.
Hope to see you soon.
I like the idea of getting 10 to 25 in local areas. This will give us a chance to get to know our local fellow FReepers in a local setting.
I’m in Oconee County, SC. I could probably reserve the Salem Community Center.
Interested Upstate FReepers contact me and let’s get rolling.
Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) is THE American Airlines hub.
Sorry about any double or triple pinging of those on the troop support ping list, but this is an important thread.
What does it cost to rent an RV for a month?
Could you get a driver and someone to plan the stops along the way (some of which stops could be at FReeper homes with big driveways)?
I would love to go along. But my schedule will have to coincide with school. Hopefully there will be meetings this summer that I can attend.
We already have plans for Easter week.
No, but if you hum a few bars...
