hermanmullins Report post Posted May 24, 2017 There is going to be a new format for get together. In Indianapolis it will presented as Seminar. Mike, Doug and myself are working on the details now. I will post here when I have the day, Seminar Room number and time. The format will be as an introduction to the Forum and how to navigate and participate. I am hoping for a time when there will be nothing following and we can have an informal social time so those of us currently active on the Forum can visit with each other and possibly answer questions from newcomers. Stand by for details. Herman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rossboyer Report post Posted May 26, 2017 I have a conflict and will not be able to attend. Would it be possible after the seminar to post it for us to read? Also, take notes of questions and answers and post those? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hermanmullins Report post Posted May 26, 2017 Wil I will try and do a report but may miss some. The main thrust of the Seminar will how to navigate the site. Any questions asked in the social will be asked to post them here with answers and solutions. Sorry you won't be able to attend, but you will be in Indy. I hope.

rossboyer Report post Posted May 26, 2017 Yes, I will be at Indianapolis. I have volunteered for Communications/Radios Chief. I did find the discussion interesting and helpful at Chandler. There my comment about marking all read was somewhat rejected. I did find out after the meeting that several others were having the same problem, but didn't want to speak up. That issue has been fixed on the site. I have sent via the Contact tab at the bottom and via personal email to one of the moderators requesting that the Indianapolis Convention 2017 be added to the list of Conventions. That seems to me to be the best location for discussing that convention, not elsewhere in the Forums. IE: General Discussion, Motorhomes or Towables, etc. I haven't seen it added.

hermanmullins Report post Posted May 26, 2017 Not sure who would be the person to speak with where to add convention info. Maybe just add a topic in General Discussion titled something like "Gillette Convention 2018". A post like this could just die after the convention and another started for Perry. We will be having a social following the Seminar. By having the room for 2.5 hours we can just morf into the social. Maybe you can make the social time. See you in Indy.
