Abby, thanks for the suggestion. I'm in Canada for the summer. So perhaps Pammy and Dougbee can take your suggestion and run with it for future meeting invitations.

Same here - I'm not in TV right now, but when I finally get down there full-time would be happy to help out at future meetings.

In the meantime, I kind of like Doug B's way of stating it above -

Thanks for hosting, Doug & Tammy. I would suggest finding a place that serves adult refreshments for next month.

The last one I attended was about 2 or 3 years ago and they chose to set outside when the temps were in the high 90's. Several of us sat inside but it was if we weren't there and all the pictures taken were outside.

Shimpy, today it was also like you weren't even there. Oh wait, you weren't. Maybe next time. However, those attending included 2BNTV, SusuS, Grandfinch, rhsgypsylady, villagetinker, Sandtrap328, EnglishJW and his wife Mary, Nancy1112, and PammyJ. Enjoyed talking to everyone and hearing their stories how they moved to TV.*
Until we meet again!

It's an informal Meet-N-Greet, so there aren't any inside/outside rules.
People sit wherever they are comfortable.
Usually people wear name tags.
We picked 3 PM because TOTVers usually have the run of the place.
It's a chance for people to wander around, introduce themselves, and say Howdy Doo.
It's a friendly informal environment.
Everyone is there because they want to meet new people and smooze..

Oh whoops, I just realized it's over.
I hope everyone had fun.

Thanks to everyone who took the time and made the effort to show up today at Crispers. Mary and I enjoyed meeting all of you.

This was my first attendance, and I was really hoping to meet some of the other posters, we did have fun, and the discussion was great. Hope to make the next one.

Sorry I missed it. Just returned from a family gathering in Ohio. Hope to see you next month.

All - we don't know who would normally 'spear head' the Crispers meeting it seems to go in a rotation. However if you would like we can send a message out to all TOTV users in advance of these events. Just let us know all the details and we can assist in sending out a dedicated message.

Best Regards,

TOTV Team
