RDU-DO: 27th JUNE, 2015. Please see below for details:
Hello hello! Come one, come all!!
At the outset I would like to thank LowLevelElite and SumGai88 for helping to coordinate the DO. I am really excited and looking forward to attending the DO, and I hope to see a lot of FT'ers at the DO.
List of events:
3 pm - 4 pm: Spotting and chilling at RDU observation deck near GA terminal. Mosquito repellant and water bottles recommended.
4 pm-6 pm: Recreational activities on Lake Crabtree. Sunscreen and repellant recommended. There are open fields (frisbee, soccer, etc), picnic tables, vollyball courts (I think one of us would need to bring our own balls though), fishing (they only allow catch and release), a deck walk along the side, and of course boating - Sailboats, canoes, kayaks, rowboats, pedal boats, and paddleboards.

Right now weekday lunches are best (I work a lot of hours). But I'll have a lot of free time in May for weekday or weekend dinners.

AS considering RDU
Hey y'all, happy friday,
New and from the area here and just saw this. So confused about whether any plans formulated or not but want to be in the loop.
Unrelated BUT on a recent trip with AS and speaking with some insiders...RDU is def on their radar as a 2015 city... fingers crossed.
Sincerely,
LLE

Fill this out
There are probably more options than interested parties but at least it will be centralized

Alrighty, based on the 4 answers so far it's looking like either 4/11 lunch or 4/17 dinner works best so far (100%). This weekend was too short notice anyways besides easter and NCAA. If the rest of us could kindly indicate preferences by sunday we can finalize it. For venue I see The Pit in Durham as top. If you have another suggestion, suggest it!

Alrighty, the survey dragon/monkey has spoken and according to it 4/11 lunch works for all 5 of us. Is there anyone who still hasn't taken it and/or for whom The Pit in Durham is not desirable? (Any strong vegetarian objections thereof?)
Otherwise I'll make a reservation for 5 (anyone bringing family?) at 1 pm on next Saturday. Sounds good?
Is there an official placard floating around? Otherwise I'll make one.
Happy Easter everyone.
