Upstate X-Marks Gathering?

[Woodsheal]

We should plan a gathering of Upstate New York X-Markers is some central location, such as Ithaca. Heck, even stragglers from the City or Ontario would be welcome!

What say ye, fellow Yorkers...?

[Wompet]

Sounds good to me. Of course, with a three hour drive to Ithaca, I'ld need some advance notice.

I'm interested.

It would indeed have to be planned well in advance, say for May or June. Or even the summer: is Ithaca having its highland games again this year? I believe their first was in July last year, and was a success....

We could do thing where we meet at the games, then move to some suitable local pub for the evening (and Ithaca has some nice choices)....

I'm in! What about Saratoga during track season? We could invade the horse races! Ah! just saw the games post. That sounds better

I'm interested. Saratoga would be a heck of a ride for guys from WNY or metro NYC. I think Ithaca or Syracuse are about as good as we could do, geographically. There's a big Irish festival in Frankfort (Herkimer County, near Utica) that's pretty centralized. I think it's in August.

I'm definitly up for it as well.

The Ithaca Highland Games was a great time last summer, I'd say doing that and then finding something afterward would be great.
