KB get together, March 2008 - which weekend?

**Colapop** · 18th June 2007, 12:13

As the title says. Discuss the options and come up with an answer.

**Devil** · 18th June 2007, 12:28

Thou shalt not vote for the 1st & 2nd, cos it is me birfday.

**nadroj** · 18th June 2007, 12:40

How about asking what else is on where & when to find any clashes.

**MSTRS:Me** · 18th June 2007, 13:01

Oh woe is me....any w/e 'they' pick will not be suitable for me......
Just announce one and the place...the crowds will come (less those that can't)

**Joni** · 18th June 2007, 13:14

I agree with MSTRS, there will always be people who cant make it...

Just make the arrangements, let everyone know and voila!

**Hitcher** · 18th June 2007, 13:31

One thing you will never get around here, Col, is consensus. Book a weekend and people who are able to come will come. You'll never find a weekend that has universal appeal, so stop looking. Just avoid Easter and all should be well.

And as long as the Golden shears does not fall on any March weekend

**yod** · 18th June 2007, 13:45

I haven't voted cos i dont mind what weekend (no kids)
but suggestion:
Easter weekend is Friday 21 March -> Monday 24 March so i'm thinking perhaps remove that as an option?

Colapop - how about chucking the Easter dates in your 1st post so peeps can see it before they vote?

bring on the party

**Lissa** · 18th June 2007, 13:50

Gahh I was going to start a poll honest Col! I was just trying to figure out when easter and the Hill Climb is in March next year. And I have no idea when the golden shears is on.

Hmm I am thinking that the 15th and 16th of March are a goer for the weekend. As Mom said in the other thread... pm everyone who might not know about this gathering.

**MSTRS:Me** · 18th June 2007, 13:53

This year was 1/2/3 March

**Toaster** · 18th June 2007, 18:20

Yep... find out when the public hols are and plan around them to allow us to find a weekend when people aren'tbooking out accommodation etc. Maybe give us better chances of all staying in the same (or close by) digs.

**Lissa** · 18th June 2007, 19:22

1st Weekend of March is the Martinborough Fair.. lots and lots of crazy welly cagers to advoid.

21-24th in March is Easter.... according to yod.

Accommodation I am looking at will be able to have everyone staying at the same place... makes it more fun that way.

Its also the March Hare Rally...

**Colapop** · 18th June 2007, 19:31

I didn't come up with dates only because I was being lazy! And I don't have a handle on what dates other events are on...

The organising committee (it appears to be me & Lissa - with some help from 'others) are working on a few things and dates is one that the majority will speak on... hopefully...
