XMTS Annual Kilt Weekend

[McClef]

Wherever is chosen people need plenty of notice.

Part of the problem with the last one was nothing became concrete in time for many to plan accordingly, especially when flights were involved.

Hamish and I had to cry off for that reason.

I'm for BC, but that's because it's close to me. The farther east, the less likely I'd be able to attend. But I think that's going to be the case with everyone.

It seems to me that Ontario and "Northern California" have the most frequent kilt nights. It would be nice to hold it in a city where you have good local guides.

Chicago, Illinois - my "brother" Eamonn wants me to move there. not so much.
Atlanta, Georgia - it's close to the Carolinas ...
Toronto, Ontario - definetly ranks high on my visitation scale
Houston, Texas - Austin .... hmmmm .....
Vancouver, BC - lots of "stuff" there
San Francisco, California - Hmm, NorCal Rabble (you've seen the pics, judge for yourself ... )
Denver, Colorado - another place with lots of "stuff" (Stuff is a good thing btw ..)
Washington, DC - hmmmm, again - stuff within range (Barb's not too far away either)
Boston, Massachusetts - high marks for rabble, "stuff" content, trouble
Fort Lauderdale, Florida - one word "humidity". no.

Agreement with the above, advance notice required.


CT - the more the better

I'd seriously consider attending an event in Toronto, Boston or Washington.

[Mr. Kilt]

While Las Vegas would be cool (again ), I'd like to add Minneapolis/St. Paul to the list. Centrally located, close enough to our new home that Karen and I could drive there in less than 10 hours, and the Xmarks rabble could invade Stillwater Kilts and see Jerry's time machine in person!

[CameronTaylor]

I'd like to add Minneapolis/St. Paul to the list.

I'd be down with that. "Stuff" and I met a cop there (SPPD) ....


CT - no further comment

[Livingston]

Too many good choices. The most important to me would be having a highland games to go to and enough notice that I could get the time off. The easiest for me would be Denver for those reasons. I live close and always have the time for the games up in Estes Park. Now, as far as the other cities go...

Chicago, Illinois - born there, don't want to go back
Atlanta, Georgia - realitivly close to the Grandfather Mountain games...
Toronto, Ontario - Grant would be the co-ordinator
Houston, Texas - Zardoz would be the co-ordinator but it can be VERY humid
Vancouver, BC - Not that easy for me to get to but like what I see of the area
San Francisco, California - well, ok. Nothing against it but nothing that pops either
Denver, Colorado - said above
Washington, DC - Too many other things I'd want to do while I was there
Boston, Massachusetts - Barb would be there.
Fort Lauderdale, Florida - humidity, are there any games?
