mFrame Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 As mentioned in a few other threads, there seems to be interest in having a Fall Frag Swap. We had been talking to one venue, but don't think we're going to be able to coordinate it around their schedule. This is an open call out to members that have an HOA community center that could serve as our meeting place. Past swaps had 10 or so 8' tables, preferably with hard floors in case of water spills and easy entry/exit. We're looking for a Saturday, full day in November. Please PM me if you have access to such a meeting space, preferably more centrally located than far extremes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last swap we had at an HOA center was $100 for the day, versus several hundred for a city venue. The lower the cost to the club, the lower the cost to sellers, which is why I was checking for volunteers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gig 'em @ NDstructible Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 The Wells Branch Community Center is $200 to rent. Just throwing that out there. Located between Mopac and I35 and it's connected to a nice park and playground for the kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paula Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Genuine Joe coffee shop on Anderson Ln has a meeting room that can hold 30 peeps. Not sure about room for tables. Here's the link. You guys might know better how much space is needed. They do have a $25/hr tab rate for the room. As long as we're drinking plenty of coffee shouldn't be a problem. http://genuinejoecoffee.com/meeting-rooms/Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked over the coffee shop, but had another larger possibility open up before I called them. We're working through discussions on which weekends are available and hope to announce something very shortly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No clue what the next Mike will have to do just so you can attend. 13 minutes ago, jolt said: Fingers crossed its not the weekend before thanksgiving With the time our sellers will need to prepare frags, time to get the word out, and upcoming holidays that we're thinking it makes sense to have a club meeting on 11/11 rather than trying to rush in the frag swap. That means we'll be pushing the swap until January. The good news is Brian Srock has gotten his church to approve us using their building. Yeah Brian! It's centrally located near 183 & Mopac, so shouldn't be too much of a trip for most people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
