Can any of you, my fellow responsible OCers tell me when and where the Picnic or gathering will be in Albuquerque in 2012?

I would like to know to. Saw a video on you tube from a news station about one in virginia. Would like to go to one here with the wife and daughter.
Hey sorry guys. Been super busy. I'm setting up a couple meets for around the end of this month.
Care to let us know when and where?
That came off sounding kinda rude. I'm actually in the process of creating threads now.

As I have said in other earlier posts here: Get a hold of member TravisNM. Also, see this thread by TravisNM:

I am not a member of Facebook so I post "my" events here only, but you could post here AND Facebook if you wanted to get the most views.
Also, read the other posts here about get-togethers and how they developed (no need to re-invent the wheel) then contact the "ring-leaders" (except me, I am still in TX) and others who attended -- you could individualy PM them if you want with a direct invitation (once the event is scheduled but they haven't publicly RSVPed yet in the event's "invitation" thread you will be posting here in the NM area).
But really, all you have to do is pick a date/time/place and post it. People will probably then chime-in (ask for input) and you can adjust the info as needed. Still, at some point you will have to decide on a specific date/time/place and just STICK to it...people make it or not. Can't please everyone's schedule.
Otherwise, most of these events never happen because they are always stuck in the planning stage, trying to choose the best date/time/place so ALL can attend. That's fine to a degree, yet it's like herding cats -- or trying to build a house with constant change-orders (it might never be built on-time or even ever) -- so at some point you have to go with what MOST people can attend, spend no further time planning and just go with it...and forget the others (for NOW, that is: Maybe THEY can make it next time).
"Our" goal was to have a set date/time/place meeting once a month. Hasn't happened yet but that's STILL the goal regardless.
At out last meeting, we had 13 people, maybe slightly more than half were from Rio Rancho and the rest from ABQ.
Good luck...
