There is still room. Also, the location is new. Similar name, but if you go to the old location, there will be no one there.
Two or three speakers Saturday afternoon, a nice dinner, then brunch Sunday and an Ann Arbor walking tour.
This DO started with bringing in a speaker or two to educate the attendees.
I know the speakers I've asked will keep up that tradition.
Our first confirmed speaker is Stefan, of
Rapid Travel Chai. I love the variety of diverse countries Stefan visits and posts about. I am not sure why armed guards and barbed wire in trip reports excites me, but it does. Looking forward to Stefan's presentation.
Also confirmed will be Drew and Carrie from
http://travelisfree.com/ and
http://freakinflyers.com/ are also going to be speaking. I'm toying with a question and answer with me asking the questions.
Sunday's activity is a walking tour of Ann Arbor, after brunch at Webers. The walk was attended by about 7-8 people last year, as was actually surprisingly good. A combination of old town Ann Arbor and U of Michigan buildings. I would encourage people to consider taking the walk and getting more time to meet other travelers.
Feel free to respond as committed or tentative, and let me know if you are bringing someone to the meeting or just to dinner or brunch. Or if you are just coming to the meeting or a meal or meals.
Got a question on the fee to attend. I've decided to double it this year. So, 2 x $0= $0!
