Milwaukee, WI meetup 3/7/14
« on: January 22, 2015, 10:10:39 AM »

Okay, not that many people chimed in down thread about a date preference, so I'm just going to make it 3/7 at, say, 5 PM?

My address is 3158 N 78th in Milwaukee.

RSVP in the thread. Ask questions here or PM me. I'll make a main dish, maybe something other than pizza since I did that last time, but try to bring something to share.

Look forward to seeing y'all then!

Holy shit, you live a couple of blocks from me. I live near Cooper Park. I hope more people respond, it'd be great to meet like-minded people in the area.

Howdy neighbor!

We had a decent number at the last meetup. I usually let the thread sit for a bit, then starting PMing the local users.

I'm relatively new to the whole Mustachian thing (and admittedly still consumeristic) so I'd definitely be interested in meeting up and making some local Mustachian friends.  It'd be kind of a Consumerists Anonymous meeting for me.

There's a pretty wide range of buy-in among the locals that have come to the past meetups, so you'll fit right in :)

To anyone else, any preference on a date? I am leaning toward 3/7 at this point.

Posting to subscribe so I remember! I'll talk to my wife tonight, and see if we can make one date or another work. We'll be swamped with a rental unit remodel starting 2/27, so we'll see.......

Howdy fellow brew city mustaches (brew city bristles? brew city burn-sides?). I have been reading MMM for a while and decided to check out the forms. So of course when I saw a Milwaukee meet up I had to create an account. Would love to join the meet up if possible.

We'd prefer a dinner meetup, but I don't think it really matters which weekend.

Okay, I'm just going to make it 3/7. I edited the first post to reflect that :)

It's on my calendar! Not sure if we will bring the kids this time as we have an early Sunday morning commitment and they need to go to bed early. Might be just me and the baby.

Thread bump, as we've got very few interested so far.

Consider me tentative.  I'll be bringing my kids and will be able to stay for an hour or so if we are able to make it.

Thread bump and a sounding out -

So myatzeck is the only definite?

And we have Nate R, Russ, MilwaukeeStubble, and Gero1369 as maybes. Kinnon expressed interest up thread but hasn't RSVPed.

I also posted this on my personal blog, and one person contacted me through there as a maybe as well.

Not sure how to plan for this re: food but hopefully some or all of the maybes can make it. I'd love to get past the "hey, how'd you find MMM?" introductory stage with some of y'all.

I do apologize for not RSVP'ing as of yet. The 5pm time may be difficult to make. It does not look like an end time was listed so that is promising :) If there is a time cut off for new arrivals please let me know, otherwise I will join everyone when I can! And I will also plan on bringing some type of food to pass.

Come when you can. Based on past meetups, I'd say people should be around until 7 or 8. The previous two meetups I've hosted had a significant amount of people staying 2-3 hours.

We'll be there, probably closer to 5:30. Not sure what we're bringing yet, though.

Hey Everyone, I want to apologize it does not look like I will be able to make it on Saturday. Because the Shamrock Shuffle it looks like Saturday I am on for a 16 instead of a 12 as originally thought. Again my apologies. :(
Have fun and hopefully I can meet up next time!

Catch you next time! Unless someone else comes forward to host something, I will probably shoot for May.

Sorry I missed it.

I'll have a new, larger place come May and may be able to host.  Will have to see how the timing plays out.
