Ideas and suggestions for future North east meets!
Hi Everyone
I just wanted to ask everyones opiminions and ideas on where we could go and what we could do at future meets.
The ones at the xscape have been going really well but I thought that we could get a real plan of action going and organise some long term stuff for places to have a drive out to etc.
Would be nice to be able to say, In August weve got so and so organised, in September we have....... etc etc instead of it being a bit on a limb each time we meet
Please remember that although Im this regions coordinator I dont have all the ideas, its up to you guys to suggest stuff so that I can put the ideas forward to everyone and the pull it all together. So your input on this thread is appreciated.
Have a think about it and either let me know your ideas on this thread or you tell me your suggestions at the meet on Saturday!
Cheers all,
Lee

Re: Ideas and suggestions for the next meet
Okay, What about something like Paintballing?
There's a place at Scunthorpe (Messingham) which is pretty good or there one near me at Bawtry (bit expensive tho)
Just an idea. Then again we could go for a day out to the coast (Skegness, mablethorpe, cleethorpes) etc somat like that.
I'll see what else i can come up with

Re: Ideas and suggestions for the next meet
A while ago I mentione going paintballing and go-carting. For both and a meal it was something like £45 which I thought was a really good price. Full day too

Re: Ideas and suggestions for future North east meets!
Well i tried to arrange Alton towers for the other day, got no interest. It'll be no good going this time of year anyway as all the kids are off school.
But we can discuss it on Saturday

Re: Ideas and suggestions for future North east meets!
Maybe plan it for a weekend or if it's a week day give a lot of notice - most members work weekdays I think. I'd have been interested had it been a date I could have got time off.
Definitely a good idea though - we had such a laugh on the dodgems and wierd ride at Japshow!

Re: Ideas and suggestions for future North east meets!
Well i went mid week last thursday and it waspacked then, queing for upto 80minutes for rides like Rita and upto 60 for Air.
If you go on a weekend it'll be Packed!
Best time is Midweek and the beginning or end of the season March or October time

Re: Ideas and suggestions for future North east meets!
I agree with that, just mean that if it is arranged for a week day then I'd guess most members would need at least four weeks to be able to book the day of work.
Re: Ideas and suggestions for future North east meets!
Yeah, i suppose. Well probably the best bet is to organise somat (if it is Alton Tower's) for Mid Week and, like you said, do it a couple of months in advance. Problem with that is, (as when ive tried arranging things) people arnt reliable. They say Yeah then when it comes to it, they cant make it.
I can understand how hard it is for Organisers to arrange events and things.
Not easy.

Re: Ideas and suggestions for future North east meets!
My suggestion for Alton Towers was a little tongue in cheek re the recent 'muslim' only day there ! Doubt they'd have a day just for us 'special ones'. As we are the Yorkshire members shoudnt we be going to Flamingo Land ?
