Potential MOM (Meeting of Members) announcement...
Posted: Thu Apr 02, 2026 2:46 pm
This is very early, but I like to plan things a bit and wanted to start the discussion....
I am very strongly considering continuing the long standing tradition of "MOM's" or "Meeting Of the Members" from EAv2, and hosting the first EAv3 MOM some time this summer... Unlike the previous MOM's that have been in the Wisconsin / Minnesota area, this one will be at my home in the Metro-Boston Massachusetts area....
The past MOM's have been held in late July / early August, and I'm thinking in terms of that time frame as well.
I am thinking of something on the order of starting Thursday night / Friday and ending on Sunday / Monday morning.... No obligation to show for all of it, come and go as desired...
I'd be interested in hearing from folks that are potentially interested in attending, just to get an idea of how many I might expect...
Looking at MY calendar, the August 7-9 weekend is out, but July is open, and so is the first weekend in August - If you are very likely to attend but have conflicts, mention that and it may impact the date I pick...
FWIW, I'm about midway between the Logan (Boston) and Manchester NH airports - Logan has more flights, but is harder to get in and out of... Manchester is a smaller regional airport with fewer flights, but is IMHO nicer and much easier to get to / from... Driving is pretty easy, as I'm relatively close to the major area highways. (and roughly a mile from a commuter rail station) I can offer a small amount of floor surfing space, and there are several major chain hotels within a few miles...
The house will be a bit of construction site (I'm getting a major addition put on) but my contractor assures me that we won't have any problems inside, and that he can have all the workers off-site so it shouldn't be a problem.
Let me know here in this thread, or send me a PM...
