The new year is upon us, time to plan the next NOVA meetup. As our meetups have become regular events, just to keep them running smoothly I propose we should enact a few guidelines that have been discussed at the meetings.
1. Someone needs to be the point of contact, and should PM their number to folks so if any changes occur in location or a participant can't find the group they can contact someone.
2. Make sure to ask for separate checks so people on different schedules can leave if they must.
3. Perhaps consider different venues than restaurants. (Picnics, bowling, etc.)
4. Consider if we want to add a little organization to our social, ie have a meeting agenda. (Introductions, what have we done for open carry, where/what to do next time)
5. Instead of selecting a day and time and seeing who is available, how about this, select a weekend and everybody who is interested state the hours they would be available over that weekend. Ideally the time would be the one the most folks could make it too.
6. Anything else we can think of.
As for the meetup, I will be willing to be the point of contact for this month. I would suggest the weekend of the 12th thru the 14th (we can discuss VCDL Lobby day), and that we have it out towards Manassas to make it fair to people out that way. Any suggestions as to where to go or what to do? Any seconds or objections?
