Folks, things are pretty dicey these days, and everyone finds themselves in a spot where they need a buddy.

I know there are several members in the Chattanooga area, we need to at least create loose connections so we can help each other.

So how about it?  I’m free most evenings.

I'm game. I've been  wanting to do a meet n greet.

I'm in.

There's a gun show in Crossville in Feb, we could meet up there?

Or meet at Hutton & Smith brewery in Chatt?

Cool.

Like I said, most any weekday evening I'm good-to-go.  We don't have to have anything formal, or fancy, or even have that many people (although the more the better).

How does anyone feel about Tuesday evening, 12 January?  Meet could be anywhere really, somewhere with reasonably priced food would be good.

Weekends would probably be best for most folks.

I could do either.

Gun show in Knoxville at the end of the month.

Okay, if the weekend is better, I suppose that does make sense.

How about a week from tonight,  Saturday 15 January?

I’m relatively new to the area, so I don’t have a clue as to a spot.

Sat is actually the 16th and my daughter is having some friends over and my wife will be out town so I am out for that night unless it goes late.

I live 45 minutes east of Hamilton Co. I get up at 3:30am for work every day, I'm normally in bed by 7pm. So a weekday night is not going to fit real well with me.

If we do it on an afternoon, say 2pm, you could bring the daughter with you. She may not be enthralled with the idea though.  

Lotsa places around Hamilton Place we could meet, IMO. Just a thought.

Okay, it looks like Saturday afternoon is going to be our best bet.  The 16th can work for me.

Maybe 1:00, hang out for an hour or two.  Miller’s Ale House has been suggested, sounds okay to me.  Let’s see if we can get a rough idea of how many can make it.

Great idea and has a real need, imho. I dont know how I haven't noticed the thread before.

I really would like to meet and make some connections.  But I don't frequent anything alcohol or that serves alcohol. I am a Baptist that lives what he preaches and don't go to the liquor store to meet any Methodist.



Don't change the meeting place on my behalf, I can meet some of the locals at some other point and time but really need to make some contacts.

I have a fairly pliable schedule and can meet just about anytime except on Sunday's.

[#20]
Okay, I’m going to go ahead and call the time for 1PM on Saturday, and we’ll hang out as long as people want.

Miller’s has been mentioned, but I’m open to other venue suggestions.

Link Posted: 1/11/2021 11:23:36 AM EDT
[#21]
I'll do my best to make it happen, shouldn't be a problem.  And I'm up for wherever.

Saw your GD post.

Millers sounds good, I've never been there.  It's near 75 which makes it good for everyone.

Okay, just got off the phone with the manager at Miller's.  NFL playoffs are going on this weekend, probably going to be a madhouse.

Maybe somewhere less "sports-bar"?

Sounds like I'm late to the party but I'm likely in as well. The sentiment here is absolutely correct - this is not the time to be siloed.

I would love to be there but will not be able to make it this time.

Thanks for setting it up and hopefully I’ll be able to make it to the next one.

On a different note, anyone look to see if any north GA members are having a meetup or anyone post in the GA HTF as well?  (I didn't look much less post...)

Okay, looks like we found a spot.

Aubreys in Hixson.  1:00 Saturday, and we should hang out at least an hour or two in case someone wants to come in later.

https://aubreysrestaurants.com/hixson/directions/

We'll meet up, get to know each other, swap some contact info and maybe a few stories.  Looks like good chow, beer and wine.  I'm looking forward to it.

It looks like there’s some interest but nothing in the works yet.

I’m in on this one, I live just a few minutes over the GA line but I work in Hixson. I’ve been to Aubrey’s once, it was pretty good from what I remember. I moved here about two years ago and outside of work and church I don’t know too many people, so I’m looking forward to this.

I’ll get there early and stay late. Aubreys in Cleveland is very conservative. Great food and drinks.

I just asked if they could handle a party of 10, took my name and said yes. IM me for name/details/etc.


Everyone download Signal and IM me for our Signal group.  It’s just a group text app.

Especially with Arf dropping randomly.

I downloaded the app and tried to IM you but now I keep getting an ‘image verification code failure’ every time I try to send it. Not sure if that’s related to the other problems the site is having or if it’s just on my end. Any chance you could try to send me one with the info?
