Proud Air Force Moms,
We have been talking about trying to arrange a get together for all of us (or as many of us as we can possibly get) to meet in person, and possibly have this be a yearly event at different locales around the country. In order for this to be effective, please be honest in your answers so we can try to figure out how to get as many people there as possible as cost effectively as possible. Okay, so while I was thinking about this and since we have had a breach of security with our "Juni" weird person liking our profiles, I figured this would work the most effectively. So here is the deal:
E-mail directly to me the answers to these six questions:
1. Your name and current home town and state
2. How far would you be willing to travel to gather (i.e. 50 miles, 100 miles, 500 miles, etc.)
3. Where you think would be a good gathering place (your state, Wash. D.C. Florida, etc)
4. How much you would be willing to spend on a hotel, motel, or B& B
5. Month that a gathering should take place or works best for you
6. Anything you can think of to make this gathering fun/ anyplace that could give discounts/etc
You can e-mail them directly to my NAMMAS e-mail....if you are not my friend yet, become one!!
(I swear I dont bite!)
I will put the information into a table and report back to the group so we can work on trying to really connect in person! This would be soooo fun!!!!
Much love and peace to you all,
Marti Knoll

Here is a thought!! If we pick an AFB where one of our kids is stationed it would be very cheap!!!! Charleston has 3 and 4 bedroom houses you can rent. Rooms are only $39.00 a night. I could call the base and see what they could offer us. If you don't have a military ID you have to have a sponser(an Airman), but I don't know how many that would cover. I can get the specifics if anyone thinks this could be a possibility.

It's just a thought right now though. My brother in law lives outside of Charleston and he and his wife were in the AF on that base years ago.
I am so excited that this may be a reality soon.
Marti,
I emailed you my answers as well, I'm not great at navigating on the computer so hopefully you got it, lol. If you get any info on Shaw and the fuels job, let me know, I really appreciate it.
Permalink Reply by Marti Knoll on April 7, 2011 at 10:59pm Yep, I have received several responses, yours included Madeline! I am very excited about this, I think 8 responses so far, and I just put it up a few hours ago!! Hopefully in the next week, we will get the majority of the members here, and I can then e-mail the ones I have not heard from to see if they would like to participate. It is too early to say what the favorite place will be, but I will post the most popular and we can vote from there. Same with dates, I will pick the most popular times and we can vote on it too. I am sooooo geeked to meet everyone, and have fun at the same time! I am glad everyone else is as excited as me!! I will keep you apprised of the progress!
So far everyone is willing to go quite far....pay between 50-100 dollars for hotel....and summer seems to be the best time for everyone....will let you know more as the results come in!
Marti
