    this. would. rock.

    we should do it - i don't think we would need permission or anything...we should just plan it and do it.

    True we wouldn't but we would need things to do or have speakers etc,

    Refusing to comment on the grounds that I will most certainly incriminate my naive, sweet, innocent self. :bigsmile:

    Vegas does seem like the best spot. Weather and entertainment wise.

    This is the worst/corniest/cheesiest idea I've heard in a while. How do I sign up? :smile:

    Sounds like a great idea! I'd be glad to help organize...it's one of my strong suits.
    Of course, I would vote for Atlanta though....great airport, and lots to do. Plus it's not far for me. :)
    Vegas sounds awesome, but don't know about it....too many gourmet restaurants!!

    I'm with ya on Atlanta, not very far from me either. Although going somewhere different would be fun as well.

    Excellent idea!!! Count me in!!! I especially liked the suggestion to have it at Hilton Head Health so we'd know that all the food would be healthy :smile:

    I think the cruise ship idea is great....that way they could only have so many people...early bird gets the worm kinda thing. You know there would be a HUGE response and this would be a way of keeping the numbers under control! :happy:

    I love this idea too! I think it would be totally awesome to be able to have everyone meet in person, and it's definitely something I would love to do at some point. Unfortunately, I hate to rain on this parade, but as far as an "official" MFP event goes, it's probably not going to happen this year. We are just TOTALLY swamped, and organizing something like this would be a big effort. That having been said, I really really think this would be a great event and would love to do it, so we'll definitely keep it on our to-do list. If the site keeps growing, maybe we can eventually hire someone who's sole job would be to organize the event.

    Anyways, thanks for the suggestion! if you guys end up having some kind of unofficial MFP event, definitely let me know!
