I'm about to be all over that, I think I have definitely found where we're having it.

pics uploading.



also, Patrick needs to get down on this more because he's gonna be the one making the meet thread like last time.

ok so forget Lake Accotink, I went by there today and its a pain in the *** to even get to the area where we would have a meet.

like seriously trust me, for the non local people you'd just get pissed off finding that place.

however, Burke Lake Park has one main entrance and its hard to miss since there's a huge sign for it outside the entrance.

not only that but there are two parking lots, one right up against the lake and the other one (which is substantially larger) down a road to the left of the lake one.

this is the other parking lot they have there (might move the meet here):

I realize these were taken on a Thursday, so I'm gonna go back there on Sunday and see what the crowd is like as far as the parking lots go.

I think you guys will agree this place is pretty nice though.

Why don't just one person collect money and go and get supplies?
Paul's right, it would be easier.

In fact, can anyone bring a grill? That way some people would only need to bring the food and drinks.

I dunno, more people need to get in on micromanaging this meet, please? :D

oh hai guys! so I finally brought a computer to my appartment so that I can keep updating this and the power company turned our power off. mother ****ers never even sent a bill and its our fault? not like they don't know our address considering thats where the power is being used. so once thats all sorted out tomorrow I'll be able to be a little more involved in this planning.

that spot looks great tyler I approve.

as for the day lets do it sunday cause hyperfest is my **** and I don't wanna miss it. :flipoff:

I already had a small :lawl: on facebook about the power company, so I will not continue that.

Now that we're basically agreed on the day and location, we can start asking about food, drinks, someone to bring a grill, and I think one of us needs to contact the Fairfax County park authority and ask their info staff the rules so we know in advance.

I mean I was able to just drive right up in there and do w/e I wanted to, but I'm not sure if that's the same on Sundays. Especially since we're going to be grilling.

Who's up for that phone call?

yeah that's a good idea

the number is on their website I believe and ask them if we need to reserve or pay a fee for something just to grill there.

there was a tollbooth thing at the entrance, but I just drove through because there wasn't anybody at it.

that might be different on the weekend.
