I thought AJ was going to do something in May?? Sutton is a hike for me, but depending on the weekend, I'm in wherever it is.
Aaaand subbed.

We had a gtg a few years back at the Singletary Rod & Gun Club. There's an outdoor pavilion that was rented by the organizers of the gtg. There is also a building next to it that has a bar.
So, if it's a cold day or bad weather, it won't be good b/c even though the pavilion is covered, it's wide open all around and it's on a lake (or pond or whatever).
There might be better options available. |

We've had some clinics in the past. Mike Dimin gave a clinic. Michael Manring gave a nice performance once. It's fun and it's a chance to actually meet some that you haven't and see old friends that you haven't seen in a while. |

In fact I am working on making available at the corporate level. It is called "Whose Box Is This Anyway" and deals with the path to being a more critical thinker and an innovator. I would be happy to present this for the NE GTG, if the dates work out. I am always looking for feedback and to refine it to bring to the big $ corporate world
