[FTO MEET] CARLOW [27th/28th feb 2010]

Postby elaine » Sun Dec 06, 2009 11:47 pm

Hi all was thinking of having a Meet in Carlow at the end of Feb as we seem to have 1 that time of the year every year, Was sure John had put 1 up before but couldn't find it for Carlow, I know ye just had 1 but said I would get the Ball rolling to see if there was any interest we could also take in Kilkenny If ye wanted, The only thing to do in Carlow is 10 pin bowling, But we could do a nice drive up to Mt Lenister (go on Lenister :nwor) two weekend I was thinking of was 20th-21st or 27th-28th That's if ye wanted to do an overnigher WELL WHAT YE THINK

I'd be up for a Carlow meet, as you say we normally have an anniversary meet in February anyway.
I'm not too worried about the date as chances are I'll be free.

I'm pretty eager to finally make it to one of these so I'd say count me in preliminarily for either weekend. Apart from work, my February calander is fairly blank 8)

Sounds good to me.
Karting could be done too as Kiltorcan is less than an hour from Carlow.

As the vote's are 60% - 40% we need to pick a weekend as somepeople may need to book it off (Elaine been 1) any other taught's on what ye all would like to do a nice drive dinner chat and if ye want back to a hotel for the night, it's not that far away now once the new year is in it will fly around.

I'd be in favour of making it an overnighter if possible, they always turn out to be the best meets.

I know its early days but thought there would be more people interested in going to the annual anniversary meet? Seeing as the turn out we had last year was so huge, and the year before that was nothing to be laughed at either.

Be a shame to not have one for the anniversary of FTO-Ireland. If we could even make the 10 mark? Any ideas will the weather be sorted out by then?

Agreed, it's early days yet though. I'm sure we'll get good numbers for this.
As for the weather, it'll be lovely by then- I've decided :D
