National Get Together Update - 06/04!!! I just wanted to provide some updates as to the National Get Together here in Eden Prairie, MN on June 11th and 12th. I am happy to announce that we will be holding the main event on Saturday at the Hilton Garden Inn in Eden Prairie! Eyal was kind enough to sponsor all of the costs to get us the conference room there as well as pick up the tab for lunch for everyone attending! We are still working out the menu for lunch, and will update everyone shortly. Also, here is a list of the "celebrity" attendees that we know are going to be there: #1. Wing Liang of Android Watches #2. George Fox of NFW Watches #3. Larry Magen of SO #4. Mike Davidson of Renato #5 Avi Vieira of XOSkeleton Watches Of course, Jim will be there and I will be there representing Invicta. We are also extending invitations to the hosts at SNBC, so hopefully we will get some of them showing up as well. More info to come soon! It is shaping up to be a heck of an event! *****UPDATE***** We will be holding our unofficial "meet and greet" Friday night (06/11) at a local watering hole called the Green Mill. Here is the address: Green Mill Restaurant www.greenmill.com 8266 Commonwealth Drive Eden Prairie, MN 55344-5365 We will kick off the event at approximately 7:30pm. Just let them know you are a there for the WatchGeek event at the door and you'll get brought to our private area. Our main event will be the following day, Saturday the 12th at the Hilton Garden Inn in Eden

Hope to be there. I can imagine a lot of laughing, gazing at watches, photo ops, some drinking of favorite beverages, buy/sell/trade timepieces, and some more laughing. It would be interesting if you can also invite related vendors. Such as: Watch tools, watch wristbands, a photo station to get a few watches photographed, watch logo clothing, and a caricaturist who can draw WGs and their watches (me!). Maybe also do a seminar or two on the ABCs of fine watches... to teach more about watches that time won't allow on ShopNBC. Just some thoughts. __________________ "Don't sweat the small stuff?!?

These plans are enough to make me drool. I'd love to be there to meet everyone and join in on one of my favorite things in life; Horology. If in any way; things change for me getting the weekend off and I can get a flight or train, I'll be there. Otherwise I'll be there in spirit and look forward to stories and pictures. I know you all will have the best time ever. __________________

Unfortunately the timing of this doesnt work for me. I had originally intended to be there but the re-schedule put it smack dab in the middle of what for me is the busiest time of the year with three teenage daughterss. Im sure it will be a great time and hope all enjoy and have a safe trip to and from it. __________________

Hi there - Is there any kind of "schedule" for Saturday? My husband the official Geek would like to go - but airfare out Friday night just doubled. He could fly in and get to Eden Prairie by about 10 am - what would he miss, and what would still be going on?
