I need something fun to occupy me while I wait 120+ days to go "home" to BCV, so.....

I'm thinking about a Central PA DIS DVC mini-meet? I've been in touch with several DIS DVCers in the area who are interested but I thought I'd post here for those who don't list their location.

The plans are just now brewing in my head and anyone who wants to help plan this - please let me know. I'm thinking about a Saturday afternoon in August in a central location like City Island in Harrisburg. We can each bring our own picnic lunch and chat about our favorite vacation destination to get a quick Disney fix.

Interested? PM me & I'll add you to my (growing) list. If I've already contacted you, no need to resend unless you want to help plan.

A little Disney fun, anyone?
 
I would love a meet....but DH and I both work on Saturdays :(

We'll be in Florida from 7/27 through 8/24, with the last week at BWV and OKW. If the dates are different, we'd love to come.....spruce
 

well I am not in central PA but last summer my fiance and I stayed at a hotel on the river in Harrisburg and walked to City Island. I think that is a very nice city/area. If it is in the afternoon of that Saturday I would be interested in making the 5hr drive from Rochester to meet some DVC DIS people in person.

I will keep an eye on this thread and if it happens and I can make it I will post here.

Spruce.....I'll also be in FL Aug 20-26. We are staying at BCV. Maybe we can have a mini PA meet there! BTW, a group going to Disneyana has rented 2 boats for Illuminations on Aug21. There are still 5 spots left, so let me know if you are interested.

DoeWDW...I'd love to meet fellow DVC members. Aug 20-26 are the only bad days for me.
 
Over in the Collectors forum people are working on a July PIN trading get together in Harrisburg. what if we all wrok toegether and get one big DIS meet with DVC and Pin sessions attached to it?? I would love to make the trip down to Harrisburg to meet some fellow DIS users but two trips would not happen and would have to choose. I don't know which would win, I would vote for the DVC and my fiance would vote for the PIN (most likely).

LET THE FUN BEGIN!!!

Mike, your prayers have been answered!

Tigger2esq (Renee) and Jenwdwfan (Jen) were planning a DIS pin trading meet at Renee's house on Saturday July 13th from 2 PM until whenever. Renee lives in Enola, across the river from Harrisburg right off I-81 - shouldn't be too hard to find. They are both DVC members and have graciously offered to expand the meet to a pin-trading / DVC meet.

If anyone is interested in attending, you can post here or PM me.

I look forward to hearing from you and hope you can join us!

Warm regards,
 
Towncrier, I didn't mean to ignore your gracious invitation for July 27th. I will be on vacation that weekend....at the beach <gasp - not WDW!!!!>. It's a poor substitute for our preferred Florida destination, but it will have to do.
 
Is July 13th a firm date? If so, the wife and I are considering making the drive from CT. Keep us posted!
THANX
 
GREAT!!!

My fiance and I will be there! look forward to meeting many people from here at the meet.

Mike
 
I didn't feel ignored, but I appreciate the sentiment. I just got back to checking the DVC board to see what ever became of the DVC DISmeet plans for July. It looks like things are coming together nicely. If anyone can make it to Barb's on July 27th, I'm certain that you will be more than welcome. If you HAVE to spend that time either at the beach or at WDW, I guess I can understand. :D
 
July 13 is a firm date!!! I will be sending out directions when it gets closer so email or PM me if you need them. PLease also let me know if you are a DVC'r a Pin Trader or BOTH! ALso if you need hotel recommendations for staying the weekend let me know as I will try to put together a reasonable list of places to stay in the vicinity.
 
Drats!!! DH and I both work on Saturdays and July 13 is DS's 14th birthday.

Please take lots of pictures and have a great time!

tigger2esq, I just sent you a PM.

I reallt would like to come. I live in NJ and a 2 hour trip isn't that bad of a drive. I have 2 small children that would be coming too, I have a 5.5 yr old dd and a 16 month old ds. Does anyone else have children that would be coming? We will be in Disney 2 weeks before the 13th and I hope that the finances make this little jaunt do-able, otherwise maybe we can make it a day trip!

I would also love to attend. Right now July 13 looks good to me. We are moving into a new house first of July, but I can spare a little time away from unpacking! We live in Enola as well, so the trip should not be too far. Can't wait to meet everyone.
 
Kimber--perhaps we are neighbors!! :) we live right on the East Pennsboro/Hampden Township line. it will probably be a 2 minute drive for you!! LOL! Cant wait to meet you!
 
Cool. 7/13 should work great. I trade pins and we are DVC. We're coming from Lingelstown so just let us know where you live in Enola.
SharonS....if spots are still open for the illumination cruise, we'll take at least 3 and maybe all 5...thanks......spruce
 
Hi All! I'm so excited about this meet!!!! 117 days til my next trip "home" but only 40 days until our pin trade/DVC Central PA meet!!!

I'm trying real hard to keep track of who's coming. At this point, my list looks like:

DoeWDW - Doreen, hubby Todd, DS Chris 14, DD Steph 12 from Elizabethtown in Lancaster county - mainly DVC but the kids might bring a couple pins to trade for fun.

MikeScott8 - Mike and his fiancee from Rochester - Mike for DVC and his fiancee for pin trading

carone0318 - Casey and her(?) DD 5.5 yrs old and DS 18 months old from New Jersey

Spruce - Tom & Michelle from Linglestown - at least one pin trader (not sure which one <grin>)

Maistre Gracey - He and his wife from Connecticut are a definite maybe

Kimber - from Enola

SharonS - from Harrisburg

and of course our gracious hosts, Renee (Tigger2esq) and Jen (Jenwdwfan).

Anyone else????? The more the merrier!!
