Arizona GTG

Hey folks,

I'm not sure if there was one in the past, but sure would like to have one.

I know there are few members in Tucson, wondering if there are other members that visit the town, too. And we can have one here in Southern AZ.

If not, we can have one in Phoenix and have a proper AZ GTG.

As for the date, it's open for suggestions/discussion.

I would be glad to help arrange it with other members.

Let's hear from you Arizonans!!


Cheers!

That's great, Soly. Finally someone came through. that date actually works best for me as I'm going to be gone July-Mid Sept.

Do you know of other members we can PM to let know about this? I have 2 in mind.
Please feel free to spread the word.

Depending on the number of members, we can have a local on in Tucson and then a bigger one in Phoenix. Let's see how it goes.

In Tempe. Always fun to talk about this little compulsion with others. If the timing works out, sure.

Hi Sam. I'm up for one in Tucson. I'm fairly flexible on timing for a tucson gtg. Phx area sounds good too if it comes together. Hopefully some of the phx members will see this thread

I was waiting for people to see the thread and suggest dates. As for the big(ger) one in PHNX, we have a vote for late September early October. Others?

Any suggestions for venues?

Guys, since no one has said anything (yet). I will propose a date late September early October for Phoenix area and late may early June for Tucson.

Please comment if it works for you and if you have a preference.

Tucson would be tough but I'm open to the Phoenix-Scottsdale idea.

Please chime in for a venue recommendation. I'm not really the best guy for picking up cool places in Phoenix (Scottsdale) area.I know there is a mall and lots of Cafés next to Hamra Jewlery and that other place in old Scottsdale downtown.

People with ADs relationships, would you be able to arrange something WIS fun? Like a visit to an AD fun?

Recommendation are VERY welcome.
