Kids are welcome.
Food-  A potluck picnic

Swimsuits.... :-) especially if it's hot!

Since it is a private home if you'd like to come then please pm me for the address and contact details.  Car-sharing would be good!

We're bringing a big casserole dish of eggplant parmesan! It's smelling pretty good right now :P

I'm sad I missed the last meetup.  Had to travel for work.  Any thought on a next meetup?

It was very nice but rather a small meetup.  I think either I chose the wrong weekend or  my place is just too far out of town!

Another meetup soon would be great.

It has definitely stopped raining!  :)

I will be doing lots of traveling this summer, but hopefully can make the next meetup.

Rained again!

Actually, I was wondering what sites y'all use for selling off stuff in addition to Craigslist? Is there something better in the Austin (North Austin) area?

Thanks.

Not sure how I missed the meet up in May, but very disappointed that I did! Worse, I proposed the Ramsey Park meet up last September & missed that! I was going to set up an actual Meetup.com Austin Mustachians group to make it easer to find others & organize get togethers, but they charge $9.99/month! And as a Mustachian I just can't do that:) I would like to try again to meet some of my fellows. I know some folks prefer a weekday meet up, but they are going to have to organize that themselves, not going to work for us. Wondering about a Saturday evening in September, the 10th or 17th?  People with small children might prefer the park again, or I love the Draught House on Medical Parkway, a great European-feeling beer garden. I set up a doodle poll, but that's only good for the date, please indicate your preferred location. http://doodle.com/poll/fzgebvgwgr8ikzhv

I'll try to attend but I'm moving into an apartment that day so we'll see. I'm new to Austin so it would be nice to meet up.

Doh, wish I made it to the last one!

Is there an email list or facebook group to make it easier to track the events?

I can try subscribing to this topic but I think if I miss one email about a new post the forum won't send another email until I read the thread again or something.

Any chance there will be an Austin meetup in October?  My wife and I will be in the area on October 25 and 26.  On Wednesday 10/26 we're planning to attend happy hour at ABGB - planning to see Warren Hood play there for his usual Wednesday night gig.

on edit... here's the link to the ABGB web site http://theabgb.com/

Just moved to Austin.  Quite interested in getting together with other Mustachians for a future event.  Is this the best way to track possible events in the future?  Thanks, Carter

Probably is Carter.  We just seem to be a little inactive since our last meet up in September. Perhaps we could drum up some interest for a January/February meetup...

Welcome to Austin. What's your general location?

Bump, January and/or February would be good.  A picnic, pot luck, happy hour or outdoor activity would be fun.

How about Thursday February 2 or Saturday February 4?

I'm happy to host a get-together at my house (near Mopac and 183).

Or Genuine Joe's has a comfy meeting room with minimum tab per hour:

Count us in if the event is on a Saturday or Sunday!  We are very North, but don't mind driving to meet y'all wherever. :)

@clmsoup - that's very generous of you to offer to host, and if that's what the group comes to a consensus on, we'll be there.

My personal preference would be a location a bit more central (bike accessible) and outdoors, if the weather cooperates. Mueller has some nice grassy (and shady) areas where we've met up with another group. Throw frisbees, picnic, discreetly enjoy beverages; playground nearby. Here's the spot I'm thinking of: https://goo.gl/SVimcl

Another option across the road is Patterson Park. Or Zilker, but parking can be a bit difficult there for those driving.

Saturday Feb. 4 would work for us.

Mueller!!

I can imagine early February being cold, though, and a house party being preferable.  I like visiting people's houses.  House in February, Mueller in March/April??

Is there a facebook group or email list going on for Austin mustachians?

If not I think there should be one. It's kinda hard to keep track of just this forum thread even if you try to use the notifications feature.

As a former Austinite, I highly suggest someone there form a meetup group. I think Round Rock might have one already?

The BAMMM (Bay Area MMM) meetup group is has regular and well attended meetings.

But Cedar Park was named after the guys who came out to chop down Cedar! True heroes! :D

Plenty of Cedar left all around this area.  Liberty Hill is changing fast, 29 will become exactly like 1431.  5-8 years, tops...

Great! But how do you feel about making it a private group? I myself and I would imagine others would prefer to keep the mustachian stuff unknown to coworkers/bosses for example and an open group shows up on your profile (I think).
