Boston Meetup Dates
Permalink  
 


Pick your favorite weekend for the Boston Meetup... 

I am going to exclude the end of May, since we want to avoid Boston graduations and Memorial Day.  I am also excluding the beginning of April (since it is pretty much still Winter in Boston) and Father's Day. 

Since I can't figure out how to set up a poll so that you can pick multiple answers, please post a response with all your date choices.  I will a list going with all the responses.

April:
4/15-4/17
4/22-4/24
4/29-5/1

May:
5/6-5/8
5/13-5/15

June:
6/3-6/5
6/10-6/12
6/24-6/26

The only date that doesn't work for me is 4/29 - 5/1.

I do have a slight preference that it be in April or May before school is out... my absence is less likely to be noticed this way. :)  But given that's a personal preference, I wouldn't say I'm unavailable in June.

Thanks so much for doing this, spreadsheet jockey! Can we see some pivot tables on this? :)

April 22-24 is Easter weekend. We probably should count that out. ( I could not go, plus flights will be more expensive due to holiday travel)

I am game for anything else.

I am accruing 13 vacation days this year that I won't take. I have 2-3 earmarked for this!

Easter weekend is out for me and the weekend of April 16 is not ideal because I'm going to be in NY the week prior.

Otherwise I'm wide open.

I am going to take Easter Week out of the running. I totally forgot about it!

Is one of the June weekends Fathers day or the may weekends mothers day??? I am far too lazy too look this up. I would be out for either of those since this will be our first mothers/fathers day together with the baby.

April 15 weekend I'm hoping to be in Arizona (and hopefully visiting Kristi, JenM and Amber).

May15 may or may not work for me. I have an invitation to my godson's first communion but I don't know if I'm going.

Any other weekend should work.

I can't plan this far in the future, lol. Can you ask me again in March? ;)

4/29-5/1 or 5/13-5/15

June is out for me too. I agree with Tex about the school thing.

Mother's Day is May 8th.

Ok I'm out for May, my brother is getting married that weekend (yes he just got divorced.) I'm really glad my preggo brain kept nagging me until I figured out wtf I had going on in May.

Any of the other weekends should work fine for me though :)

Sonya, I was just thinking the same thing.  My life is so unpredictable that I can't plan that far ahead also.  I will know about one month before the event whether I will be able to make it and I will do my best to be there. wink

Here's where we stand so far. I specifically marked preferences as stated. Let me know if there should be any changes. Keep the votes coming!!
