USACi will buy breakfast! Bring Lunch Money.

sunday?????we will come we can drive down saturday night and drive back on sunday just an idea..

Saturday.

awesome....hope people turn out...

next yr have it at finals hopefully

that is my busy time can not afford to close shop for this , i am sure other shop owners understand ( remote starter season) i closed three days for finals . so i am dedicated but i need the money.

what would it take to do it on a sunday?

are we going to have the traditional show at this also

because pinky will be ready

Cant drive 17 hours unless it is a quadruple point event , Sorry , Well maybe, instead of furnishing breakfast you can buy a few kegs of budweisr , oh and whatever everyone else drinks .

Thanks for bringing one back to us Ralph much appreciated... Ppl wanted it back now lets see if all the ones that wanted it back will even show up!!!!!!!!!!1 I can tell you guys NOW if you dont show for this he probly will laugh at the next person that asks and he will refer to this post........ Im going to try my best to be there. IF you want any open arguments you BETTER BE THERE.....

yes i gree jimbo he is listening , SUNDAY < SUNDAY < SUNDAY

Why not use WebEx for video conferencing so that those who cannot drive up for the weekend can participate this way. It makes no sense to drive 17 hours for a meeting with the technology available today.

or web the whole thing. i will go but its just yet another cost, right after finals. but I wanna be able to voice my opinion on certain issues if they are discussed. also look at sch times sq/spl no need for people to be there when they are not needed

Wow...now thats a great idea. I am all for that.

OR SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY..........

WebEx allows a 14 day trial. Even the pay version only allows 25 people per online session which is the same as the trial. USACi could use this and the first 25 people that request access will be given it. There may be other alternatives but they do allow a 14 day free trial on webex, otherwise its $69 for a one month subscription. We almost all have cell phones with unlimited weekend minutes so conference calling in would not cost us anything. Lets be smart and use the tech that is available to us. We had live results at finals this year, there is no reason the guy that set that up couldn't get a web conference going

Also, Ralph could host this from his home, or from the USACi office without having to book a conference room/venue or pay for anyones food. Web conferencing is a win/win situation.

you better leave friday........ just haven fun

i am all for the web conference i have a web cam so my ugly mugg will be up an smiling lol.
so ralph what you think your input on this would be helpful

Guys, we have a date and location. I will have someone look into the teck part and see if it can be piped in. Last time we tried it the whole thing failed miserably.


I will see if we can move to Sunday but then I am sure shop owners who work Monday will not be happy either.

Everyone asked for this, so here it is.

this sonds interesting....

maybe some things will change for the better.

why not do more than one members meeting in different locations so more members can ive there 2 cents

I will be setting up a REGIONAL MEMBERS MEETING (TX & LA Area) on Nov. 15th for those that will not be able to get to the meeting. I will get back to my area with more information soon. I need some input and Jimbo to get with me on the location and time.

I think this is a good move for USACi and hope all can attend.

please hit me up also if you can do the web thing ... got to do that Cable Guy thing ... can't get away ...

Now see that is something that I think could be pulled off. Everyone that has a region setup the same time at their locations and webcast between them that way there wont be like 100-200 people trying to all log in at the same time. Plus I think that there would be more people involved. Plus all of us that have to work on Saturdays would still be able to possibly attend a Sunday meeting.

This would allow us to use webex with its 25 access limitiations. We certainly wouldn't have 25 regions but if we could group people together in up to 24 areas we could pull it off.
