I think all of the Fricker's are posted. Perrysburg and Sylvania are posted for sure. I'll be keeping an eye on this thread - once plans are firmed up, I'd love to meet some of you all. And I don't mind Big Boy on Secor...it'd take me all of three minutes to drive there. :)
Sorry, I forgot to address this. :oops:

I am uncertain how management of ANY location, in this part of Ohio, that serves beer or liquor for consumption on site would feel about hosting a party of 15 to 50 people carrying handguns, some open, some concealed, none of whom are allowed to partake of alcoholic beverages while there. Regardless of the legality. :shock:

I know, for a fact, having done this multiple times at more than one of their locations, the Big Boy Restaurants around this area are definitely okay with it. 8)

I'm not twisted, I just have kind of a warped sense of humor. :twisted:

I actually LISTEN to what people say, which is frequently NOT what they mean, and then answer as seems appropriate.

Example:
Someone says to me, "Whats up?"
My answer usually is, "A direction."

Good talking with you also Brian.

OFCC would like to make it clear, these Holiday MnG's are official sanctioned OFCC events.
We naturally expect those who are heading up each locally held MnG to represent the organization in a positive light
(not that we expect any issues).

OFCC intends to provide funds to Event Leaders to purchase door prizes.
These prizes should be distributed in a manner that gives all participants an equal chance to win them
(if there are not enough for each individual).

The purpose of these Holiday MnG's has been to just have a casual get together.
No reason to be concerned with assembling a formatted program.
Relax, eat and have a good time!

I'm not sure she'd feel very welcome.

Maybe we could quietly chant "One of us...one of us..."

This needs a bump - so I will ask:

Is anyone that is coming to the Toledo MnG willing to volunteer to take pics and/or videos, and post them on-line somewhere the other attendees can access them?

Well, with plenty of time until this MnG, hopefully you guys will get it figured out.

Anyone with a cell phone can take pics these days.

Dang Jake, does that mean you DIDN'T volunteer to send me a camera? :cry:

Oh well, I was just bumping this thread and upping my post count anyway. :wink:

Guess I gotta watch out for Al better in the future. :?

You do know Mr. Zeimer, don't you Jake? :P

It has been verified with management again this year.
We are welcome to return to the location of the Inaugural OFCC Meet & Greet whenever we want. 8)

Just so long as someone lets them know an approximate headcount a few days in advance,
so they can make sure they have appropriate staffing to serve us well.

Anyone planning to come please let me know how many you are bringing, either here or by pm.

Jim
