PLN-GLR Meetup

Post by ehepner1977
The PLN-GLR Meetup Committee is pleased to announce that we have a date and a location for our annual gathering. As you might have noticed from the thread title, this year Waze has decided to combine some regions' meetups in an effort to reduce travel time for staff, as well as promote cross regional relationships.

This year, the committee has chosen St. Louis, Missouri to host the Meetup on Saturday October 26, 2019. This year's festivities will be at Hilton St. Louis at the Arch. This historic hotel is within walking distance of Busch Stadium, the iconic St. Louis Arch, and many other downtown St. Louis attractions.

One very important note, editors are limited to attending ONE regional meetup per calendar year, so choose wisely. Also, due to the combined nature of this year's meetups, we have been able to expand the number of attendees to 60. Due to the hotel conference room space limitations, there will not be room for any pay your own way folks this year.

Other details are still being finalized, so watch this post for more to come.

As the time for the meetup approaches the planning committee is expanding. We're looking for volunteers for the presentation and social events sub-committees.

The presentation group will be responsible for soliciting editor presentations and putting together the agenda. The social event(s) group would ideally be a few St. Louis locals who can locate 1 or 2 venues for a pay your own way group dinner. Please send me a forum PM if you are interested.

Quick update folks:

Due to a personal conflict, Delilush is unable to make a flight for Saturday October 26. Therefore, after some discussion, the planning committee has elected to move the date of the Meetup to Sunday October 27, 2019. As soon as the updated contract with the hotel is finalized, we'll be announcing signups.
