Since March 30th falls on Easter weekend, we have decided to move the meeting to April 6th. Sorry about the confusion.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

O.K. all you peeps from Michigan and surrounding States, Countries, and Continents, a date has been established.

This is the “Final” plan for our Michigan SG meeting, since it’s creation 11/16/01.

https://www.speedguide.net/forums/ ... adid=56494

When: Saturday, April 6th, @ 2:00pm

Where: The meeting place will be at the Best Western Inn, in Woodhaven, Michigan. We will meet in the lobby at 2:00pm and then move into the lounge/restaurant area, which opens at 3:00pm.

The Bar/lounge area opens at 3:00pm, and the restaurant doesn’t start serving until 4:30pm…their food probably sucks anyway! That’s O.K.; we have many other restaurants, bar & grill, go-carts and putt-putt, bowling alleys within a mile radius of the hotels. (Also a few pizza joints)

The original destination (Hockey Town Café) was blown out the water, due to Baseball opening season in Detroit, and the fact that Detroit City isn’t a very safe haven for visitors. Therefore, we have decided to hold the meeting in a safer atmospheric area…like Woodhaven! (23 miles south of Detroit) We hope that all members within a stone’s throw can make the trek! We (I) will also provide mobile transportation for those members traveling from abroad, via airlines.

Please bring your camera, web cam or any evidence device to capture the moment. We plan on making this event an “all-nighter”…so be prepared!

You will find info below pertaining to accommodations; these three hotels are within 100 meters from each other. Please plan on staying over-night if you are from Ohio, Indiana, Illinois…we need your tourism dollar! :D

Back in October 2001, this sounded like a great idea to everyone within the area, since then many have changed their demeanor….why? Was it 911 that brought us stressfully together? Or was it just a coincidence? Regardless, we must continue to unite and prosper together as a family! This meeting is the beginning of a new realm, a new generation of technically advanced people that make a difference in this world. We are tomorrow’s future… we are the elite! So please join us in this celebration of Philips dream, help us make it happen!

Keep in mind; this is a “beta” gathering! It may not work with your system… ;) Just show up and be accounted for! ;)


Thanks, BMED {{~Jeff~}}

BMED, and everybody else


who all is coming from 'afar?

and spending the night/weekend over there..

I was planning on renting a room @ a hotel, if someone else comes from 'afar and spends the weekend there I could share a room with them (cheaper for both ppls)

I know drdoug99 said he wanted to come, but not sure if he was planning on making this a "day-trip"

I've also received a message from mountainmanbrandon (from Ohio), he is going to try to make the event.

It would be nice if we could make this the "Michigan-Ohio-Illinois-Indiana and Canada", Midwest Chapter of SG members annual event. I guess we'll see how this first one turns out...then plan from there for an annual event.

The location will be changing, the HTC is booked for that day due to opening season at Comerica Park (across the street). I will be looking into having the meeting at a local Motel/Resturant, this way any of the out-of-town members can spend the night if they like.

I'll post the info this wekend so everyone has time to make/change plans.

Sorry again for the changes, this isn't as easy as I thought it would be...I'll be more prepared next year hopefully!
