Frugal Village Gathering - 2010 - Baltimore, MD - How's Sep 19th 2010??
Last year, Ceashels and I looked into holding an FV gathering, but it never came to fruition.
This year, we'd like to try again. We need to set a date, however, and estimate the # of attendees, because that will determine the pavillion costs.
SO - August, 2010 - pick the date that works best for you!If you could kick in the pants the person responsible for your problems, you wouldn't be able to sit for a month.
Did you know that a 4 year student paying $20,000/year who finances their education graduates with over $103,000 in debt to start? But a student who works and pays cash and takes 6 years to graduate ends with $6,300 in their pocket! So much for "getting a head start by financing!"

Wish I could go, but that's a LOOOOOOOOONG way from Alaska!
Maybe planning farther in advance would help? Four months isn't a lot of time to save up for a trip (at least for us?).Kace - married to Dh 12 years

We're thinking an afternoon picnic. We have a rule - we never meet people from the internet for the first time in person on non-neutral ground. Originally Posted by MaryCarney

That's OK - my probation officer won't let me come, anyway, something about the range of my ankle bracelet...... Originally Posted by Greebo

I voted......sure wish I could - have always wanted to check out Baltimore.....but then Alaska has been on the top of my list for a while too!!
Looking forward to seeing the results and lots of pictures!!Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.

The farthest I get from my house is fifty miles maybe once a year.My sister was there a few years ago to see the leading research specialist about her bladder disease ,Interstitial cystitis .Her best friend went with her, didn't do much site seeing because they were warned they were in a bad part of town.So being from this tiny town they were afraid to leave their hotel room. I voted tho and hope alot can come.
