Rendevous will occur during Labor Day weekend in MNRF. Loma and I want to go for two reasons, to see MNRF and to participate in the Rendevous. I had a great time at the 2006 National gathering in Texas.
My problem, Labor Day is a huge weekend here. It is typically when folks (like the M'Cracks) invade MD. We usually hit PARF on Saturday and MDRF Sun/Mon.
Is anyone here planning to go to MN for Rendevous? I have some big decisions to make ... CRAP!

As we hope to be working faire again this year, we cannot go to MN. I was thinking of starting a roll cal thread about apr-may. Once people post when they are coming we can make plans for a meet-n-greet ans maybe help out with lodging and tix's

For those of you keeping track ... I saw a disturbing post on the R/F.com board. The powers that be are out there making up rules again. If I read it right, Rendevous will be held 10 months from the time of the last one ... meaning around July of next year, which also means MDRF doesn't stand a chance of getting this gathering for several years! Hmm, if I didn't know better, I would think something was against us.
I guess it just doesn't pay to be voted the number 1 faire, eh?

I'm always very careful to point out, over at R/F.com, that MDRF has a rendezvous every weekend, and that they are all always welcome at anytime, and to let us know when they are coming so we can roll out even more red carpet than we are used to walking on ourselves in Revel Grove. The ones who have taken us up on it have always had a great time, and go home planning future trips. Thats just the way it should be! ![:-X](http://www.friendsofmdrf.org/bbart/smileys/scotland.gif)

Well actually R/F did come back and say that it could be moved a month or 2 in either direction so that MDRF would indeed be possible 2008 Rendevous location. That being said, I agree completely with Amras. We can have a rendevous every weekend and let those who want show up and enjoy! Scotsman - If you're going to be around on Labor Day, does that mean we'll be having a M'Crack family gathering that weekend? ![:'(](http://www.friendsofmdrf.org/bbart/smileys/Woot_Emoticon.gif)

Hmm, if I didn't know better, I would think something was against us. I guess it just doesn't pay to be voted the number 1 faire, eh? It is not new. That is why I posted on this thread fomdrforg.proboards54.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=mdrf07&thread=1163115354&page=1#1165451105that we would not be a candidate. Like Master James mentioned, there seems to be a wind of change which might be fueled by the closenes of the vote, all the things said about MDRF and other things. Only time wil tell. In the meantime I shall enjoy all the get togethers that do happen "unofficially"
