With the success for 2015's meet and greet, Leadership has decided to start gauging interest in next years choices for meeting up. However before we get to that, I need to establish some things:

1: These are the ONLY locations up for discussing next year, we banded together and narrowed the locations down to these place based on many variables. Please do not post in here "Move it to NY City, or Texas, or anything along those lines"

2: Please only vote if you honestly intend on trying to make it. (i.e. If you are 18 or under you are obviously not going to be able to make it on your own, so unless you plan on dragging your parents or another adult along, there is no sense voting) If a lot of people vote for a certain location and then don't show, it will dramatically hurt us, especially if we are able to commit to a cheaper rate at a hotel because we committed to booking so many rooms. Please only vote if you honestly are going to try to attend.

With those things in place, I present to you the locations for next years Meet and Greet, We tried to find locations that would be both friendly for single individuals as well as families, while also being reasonable places to stay without spending an exorbitant amount of money.

Cedar Point, Sandusky, OH Cedar Point
One of the best amusement parks in the world. over 17 roller coasters, huge water resort as well. Resort area, nice hotels, cheap rates, midwest area.
Definitely a summer destination, still plenty to do for the non thrill seekers.

If anyone has any questions about Charleston, let me know!

Obviously you can tell that Charleston is my vote :D
 
Whose all wanting to go to cedar point? Or an Ohio alternative.

Cedar point would be awesome! The adrenaline junkies could go on roller coasters and such, and if there is a group of us feeling a little more aggressive, we could go to the paintball field that's near by(did my research). And if you guys do go to Colorado, check out the Red Rock area, it's pretty cool.

I'd be able to do Ohio as well! But, I love Deadwood, so I could make SD work as well!

I'd do both! I'd like to whip the dust off my A-5!
 
I would like to say thanks to the leadership team for working starting to look into this already.

I voted for the Colorado area and I love the outdoors, though this isn't quite family friendly depending on the age group.

My second option/vote would be Washington D.C. The D.C. area is great for any type of person and group as there are a lot of tours, museums, bars, clubs, and other things to do.
 
I am all for Charleston it is where I live, we have the best food in the country, and the friendliest people you will meet! :)
 
I vote for Colorado. Been wanting to make a trip out there so this is a perfect excuse!

I think Colorado would be awesome. White water rafting sounds like a good plan. So many choices.

Everyone vote CO
 
I voted for Cedar point, ive never been there but a lot of people in my area have raved about it. Also keep in mind only people who are planning on attending should be voting, if you live in any of the above locations and your just voting for that location but do not plan on even considering attending any other i don't think you should be voting.
