2007 Big Gay And Lesbian Board Meet

[Viki]

OK, friends, this is the time TO GET SERIOUS!!!

Several of us, including Rick, Mama Twinkles, and I, have been working back-stage to plan our FIRST MAJOR GAY AND LESBIAN DISBOARD'S MEET.

We've discussed many ideas, but before we get SERIOUS we need to know who is equally SERIOUS about attending.

The dates we're talking about span NOVEMBER 25- DECEMBER 1.

So, don't tell us if you can't make it. Rather, tell us if you can!

Also, while you're at it give us an idea:

1. Where you might be staying?

2. What sort of events might be fun?

3. Should we schedule a few events, keep it completely casual, what's your pleasure?

Thanks, friends, this will help!

That would be the gay/lesbian and all friends and family meet!

That's super!

I also added more content to my original post, so give us some additional feedback when you get a chance!

1. Where you might be staying?

We've gone back and forth on this several times because of family issues (Mom, Dad, and dear neice will probably be staying with us), but I think we've finally decided BCV, our favorite accomadations when we want to be right in the thick of things!

2. What sort of events might be fun?

MamaTwinkles has come up with some good ideas that I hope she'll share here.

Me? Hold on to your hat - this is gonna be a shock - but I like to meet for drinks and dinner, table service, counter service, anywhere in Epcot - it's all good.

DP and I have also talked about a monorail cocktail express, visiting all the stops for a drink or two. Wouldn't that be fun???

3. Should we schedule a few events, keep it completely casual, what's your pleasure?

I like a mix. Plus I know we'll hang with family some and need a good bit of down time!

What do you like?

 

[OrlandoMike]

Are you guys gonna drag me out for a night on the town again?

MK fireworks cruise?

We will be at Grosvner 11/24-11/27. Quick break trip. Rick's Bday getaway! Would love to meet up with anyone around. We're planning on the Murder Mystery Sat night but other than that open.

Drinks would be great (you can take us out of NOLA but you can't the NOLA out of us!)

Posted here awhile back, but constantly lurking!

1. Where you might be staying?

We're staying for the first time at BCV. We stayed at BWI last trip and fell in love with the location. EPCOT is our favorite evening destination.

2. What sort of events might be fun?

We'd love to meet for cocktails. We're partial to EPCOT - maybe margaritas in Mexico? Or is there somewhere we could camp out and watch the fireworks?

The monorail cocktail trip sounds fun! (And unpleasant for all others unlucky enough to be on the monorail at that time!)

We also love the atmosphere of the AKL. How about a sunset safari and then dinner at Boma? (A gal can dream, can't she?)

What is MamaTwinkles plotting?

3. Should we schedule a few events, keep it completely casual, what's your pleasure?

We'll only have five nights free, so I'd say pretty casual.

But we're up for whatever!

I'm not gay ,but I'm a friend to those who are..I will be at the GF/AKL nov 27th-Dec 4th with my gay friend from the UK...I'd love to meet.

 

[Saxton]

Count me in! I'll probably stay at BWV since I can book it at the 11 month window. As for activities, all that were mentioned sound good to me ... especially those that involve alcohol!

Yeah, Jenny, that's super! I've wanted to meet - love your posts.

Sue, you're a woman after my own heart - but you knew that!!!

Lori - Welcome!!! Great to have you!

Keep those good intentions coming!!!

Hey kids! Remember some of us have to drive home!

 

[Viki]

Mike, we're going to score a 2-bedroom (the kids will take the second bedroom) and a studio (for Mom and Dad), so I'm thinking there's a pull out in the living room with your name on it!

 

[ConcKahuna]

I'm there!! I promise I'll make it this time, even if I'm on deaths door and have to be rolled out on oxygen! (Being 25, this is probably not an issue).

We're happy for the first - missed you at the minimeet - but in case of the second, why don't WE come to you!

 

[OrlandoMike]

Oxygen at 25!?!?!?!

Good God at that age all I needed was another drink!

Anyone watching Regis today? Who is that co-host? OH MY!

I'm looking to see what might be happening in the world during this time, and so far it looks like it'll miss the Food and Wine Festival , but looks like some of the Holiday (Christmas) stuff will be up, esp if you stay until after the Dec 01. MVMCP will be going on, also the Candlelight Processional, the Osborne Family Lights at MGM, AK Holiday Parade, etc...

Still not sure we'll be able to make it, esp w/ the announcement of the new AKV, but it's still on my wish list!! Just thought I'd post that additional information if anyone was sitting on the fence.

You are correct - thanks for thinking of posting all of that - from what I understand many of the Xmas/Holiday decorations will be up and all of the festivities you listed running!
