I am not a "member" yet but I would be happy to participate in this.  I am only about 10 minutes away.  How many people usually go to things like this?  Is there a way for me to see who has signed up or just keep checking this forum post for the replies?

Thank you.  I never got into the Myspace/facebook scene so I tend to miss some information.  I understand a lot of the world runs on facebook these days but I guess I am old fashioned and try to rely on forums.  I am just afraid that I would end up being the only one there and feel weird.

Ok wow, I see that link says that 16 people are going. 

I am a pretty shy person so don't expect much out of me.  Now I'm getting nervous HA.

Dont worry about being shy, I use to be very shy also. I have since over come it.

Anyone want to join us in Lansing? I have a small group that is going out there at noon, then going to the dinner. Anyone that wants to join us out there in Lansing would be awesome.

61 people tonight.  9 new/renewing members!

I'd say that's a record!

Special thanks to Greg for putting it on.  We hope you will put on more events in your area soon!

As always, work with our SE Regional Coordinator (Pat) in planning your events.

I had a really nice time last night. I would guess more than 2/3 of the attendees were new faces. I had a nice talk with a group who came in from Ann Arbor! Very well done.

Jeff, if I remember correctly you live some where near the Madison heights, royal oak, warren area. If you would like we could meet up for coffee or something and talk a bit. Just let me know send me a PM and we can set something up.
