We use Madison because it is the most central location to the bulk of our membership. Lacrosse, Green Bay, Wausau, Kenosha, Racine, all about 2.25 hours away. Madison obviously dead center and milwaukee 1 hour away.

Though we have members in every single county of the state, the bulk of the membership is concentrated around the most populated cities.

I'd vote for Madison soley based on the current political climate, But Wisconsin Dells in the conference/meeting capital of the state for a good logistical reason.

With gas prices the way they are is anyone considering a car pool to the meeting. I am in S.E. WI.. Racine, Kenosha, Delavan area and would consider a car pool. I have a Suzuki Sidekick Sport... Small SUV, 4 cly., 5 speed manual (cheap on gas)... 4 door hard top. Not to big but would get there and back no problem... or I would also consider chipping in for gas in somebody else's car..

The Suzuki can be driven in 2 wheel (rear) drive, or 4 wheel drive in the weather gets bad...

Normally I'd be up for that, and my car gets excellent mileage, but right now I can't even swing that.

Wisconsin Carry INC sticker idea:

Full size for rear window application that just says "... Shall Not Be Infringed." Then in smaller letters the WCI web address.

Bump!

OK, I either need to sleep or eat... or maybe both... but my mind took off with this.
If you had a coffee shop with an attached bumper car play lot, could you call it the Bump & Grind?

And can you imagine adults after having consumed a quart of extra-strong high-test ultra sugared coffee playing bumper cars?
Oh wait, that's called rush hour...

I'm leaving now.

I'm still in and will gladly contribute to gas/expenses. I'm bringing a camera too.

I'll be renewing my membership as well.

I looked on their web page http://www.thedrybean.com/ for info about the Sunday brunch, & am tempted.
It's from 10 - 13:30, for $10, & has (of course) breakfasty & lunchish items.
eggs, sausage, waffles and potatoes. Or have some chicken, ribs, pasta, rice, tacos and more... there are even some deserts [sic] to choose from.

Mmmm, waffles. :rolleyes: :p :lol:
Anyone else want to get there a bit earlier, maybe noon?
I'd rather do that than try to order/eat during the meeting.

ETA - OK, I'll try to get there somewhere around noon, & get a table, & tell the hostess that anyone else w/ a gun can be seated there if they want company.

I was thinking the same thing. Get there at 1:00 or so and have some brunch!

I will be there in spirit

My Friends,

I will be at the annual meeting in spirit only. I consulted my schedule and I have to teach a Utah Concealed Carry Permit class on Saturday the 26th from 9 am to 1 pm in Salt Lake City and there is just no way I can travel the 1500 miles to be in Madison on Sunday the 27th.

Carry on my friends, proudly carry on.

Jim

We'll see, I'm still in the running for a job at Insinkerator as of today. If I can get some positive confirmation between now and then I'll go. I also have church on that day, so timing will be tight for a car pool situation. Argh...:banghead:

I spoke with the owner "Mary" today. Just an FYI for anyone heading there for brunch, usually brunch goes until 2, she said she was tearing down brunch at 1:30 on Sunday in preparation for our meeting. So if you are going to have brunch, I'd probably shoot for noon-ish more-so than 1-ish.

Carry On!

I would be up for an early arrival... To get there early I would think we should leave the Lake Geneva area (Hwy 12 North..??) by around no later than 9:30..??. I will confirm time to get there via Mapquest and my GPS tomorrow. I will post more info tomorrow as far as the car pool thing... So far looks like me, HandyHamlet, Running Wolf, ...

There was a guy at Lizzy's Friday night that expressed an interest. He was not on this website yet but was from Union Grove and I think his name was Dennis..???

I am in Silver Lake (Kenosha County) so I am thinking about meeting up at the Burger King at the N.W. corrner of the intersection of Hwy 50 and 75 (just west of Paddock Lake. There is plenty of safe parking there to leave your cars. Then west on Hwy 50 and just follow the GPS from there...

I will post more tomorrow...

If anybody else in the area is planning on going, we could all meet up and caravan up to the meeting...
