I'm planning a networking meeting. November 7th in Branchburg NJ. Approximatly 11:00 till 3:00.

Very informal get together of p/w contractors, meet and greet type, get to know your fellow washers from the BBs's.

Room is on temporary hold until I know how many plan on showing up. Room is limited to 25. Snacks and soft drinks will be provided. Cost will be $10/15.00 depending on how many show. We can order in pizza/subs for lunch if we want. Pay at the door.

Let me know if you are planning on attending for a head count for refreshments

It was mentioned to include a "swap" meet, which sounds good. So if you are coming post what you have to buy/sell

I am building a new rig so if you have something to sell I may be interested.
Doug, the drive is about four hours I believe, but networking is important to me, especially in this region. I look forward to it. Let's get involved with this guys, this org belongs to us the members!

As per Conversation with Doug I can't make that meeting because of work conflict. If anything changes I will do my best to make it.

This looks like another opportunity to network in this industry and this is always a boost for you and your business. So make it if you can and enjoy!!

Doug,

I should be able to make it.

Gives me a good excuse to avoid starting those, "Oh Honey, now that your season is over, will you fix/renovate/build X, Y, and Z?"

Rick, Mike, Brian, glad you are coming, the more the better (up to 25)

Anyone want to do any buy/sell post it up. Also bring your rig if you want, I'll have my truck, I'm sure Mike would love to show off his truck.

If anyone attending the Branchburg, NJ meeting tomorrow wants to trade out or sell a 5'er of Ready Seal Light Brown color stain, please let me know.

We have a large ipe' job to finish early next week, and my supplier is out of that color.

I have fresh unopened 5'ers of Medium Red, Natural Cedar, and Clear if you want to trade. Otherwise, I'll be happy to purchase directly.

Kindly let me know via posting here, email, or calling. My office and cell numbers are in the signature below.

Thanks!

Doug,

Appreciate your efforts in organizing this get together. It was fun to meet some new people, as well as some old friends in the business.

John,

I think Tom Vogel and/or Matt Johnson are cooking up a roundtable for March of next year. It would be great if it could be tied in with the regional chapter of the UAMCC.
