Take me to the Specktra-ites! (Central Texas Meet Planning Thread)

[Hilly]

Want to meet other Specktra-ites? Here's a great way to meet, greet, and share your hobby and love for makeup!

Janice and I are looking at MLK weekend (Jan 19) to meet up in Austin.

Here is where we need your input for a one day vs. 2 day get together.

One Day get-together would entail meeting for lunch on Saturday, go shopping, have dinner and fun at Dave and Buster's.

Two Day get-together would entail those activities, getting a hotel for the night in Austin and then doing more fun makeup type stuff the next day. That way, travelers won't have to worry about driving back all in one night. If there is interest in this, I will see if there are discounted group rates.
Also, pm me or drop a line in the thread what a good price range for a night would be (that sounds bad...).

The success and input from this will help us determine and plan our future National Specktra get-together.

These are tentative plans and not set in stone. If there is a large majority who prefer a different date, we could work it all out. Let us know ASAP so we can get to planning!!!!

If this were a lot closer to me I'd be in. I can't afford to travel that far right now.

either works for me. we could always plan for a one day and those who want to stay the night can and those can get together the next day. we can plan like semi-impromptu stuff the next day, but have definite stuff for the first.

Bummer dude...too far for me. When you're in Chicago or Denver (moving in September, yes!!) let me know.

Is it possible to plan an east coast get together too. I would so be down for that one!

Re: Take me to the Specktra-ites!

I agree with the convention. We'd have so much fun if that were possible.

Just a small clarification, there is a plan for a national (international?) gathering.

Right now this is intended as a "local" get together. That's not to say that it's limited to only those in Central Texas, anyone can come who desires, but for those of you interested in larger meetup, it's in the works at a future date. We wouldn't want to throw travel plans on anyone with 2 weeks notice.

I am really excited about this! If you are interested in attending, please say so in the thread. thanks!

Provided I'm still flying into Austin on a buisness trip that weekend, I'd love to attend. Here's hoping my trip correspond's with your meet up and I'll be able to participate (that is, if you don't mind having me, of course!).

That would be fantastic! What a great coincidence!

Yeah, Are any of the Mods on the East Coast?? Too bad we cant do one of those telethingys like when people have live shows on east and west coast and we can see them and they can see us... i hope you all understand what I mean but it would be great.

If you feel like coming to Central Texas, you're more than welcome, I'm sure. Same goes for anyone else, like Janice said.
