Ok. I've received all the information back and our get together in Columbia, Missouri is really shaping up. We've had a few political candidates and people who represent campaigns see if they can attend, and local students who want to attend. This is a great way to start a get together.
If you haven't followed, we're getting together Saturday, November 9th in Columbia Missouri. After hunting around and working with a few of the local restaurants, Trey Bistro has stepped up and provided us as much space as we need to help get a meeting off the ground.
So, just so we can stay on track.. Address & Information:
Trey Bistro
21 N 9th Street, Columbia, Mo. 65201
We'll meet at 7PM, Saturday. To avoid some confusion, I have a "table flag" that should give anyone hunting and unsure if we are there some directions on where to go. But the Restaurant will also be aware and can give proper help to those that arrive late or early.
If you plan on attending, please PM me so that we know you'll be there, and I can provide you a cell phone # in case you get lost so you can contact me and make sure you're covered.
This should be a fun, boisterous meeting in Columbia! We've chosen an away game, and Missouri plays the early day game (11AM) at Kentucky so there should be no conflicts.
We look forward for a big crowd.
