Hey wait a second... I live in OC too! Sweet a group hang, I would love to meet other hammockers and see some different setups. Ill be trying to make this for sure! Too bad all the gear manufacturers are on the other side of the country...

Any new ideas if this/when will happen in March? I'm looking forward to meeting some like-minded hangers in SoCal, but my calender is filling up fast. I'm hoping to keep the right weekend open for this event, but haven't seen anything discussed.

We've had it around St. Patrick's in years past, I'm assuming that will work this time again. I was thinking Friday 13th-Sun 15th or the 20th-22nd. Pedro, any input from an astrological point of view? If I recall, last year you mentioned a certain weekend would be better for astronomy.

I got kind of chewed up on the site fees last year so I'd like to raise it to $20 per adults, $10 for kids (for both nights... not each night) if that doesn't sound too unreasonable.

I'll make another thread soon but here's what I've been thinking.... Just throwing it out there so you guys can marinate on it and put ideas into the thread I'll post in a few weeks.

We should split up the pot-luck into two nights so we can really dig into the different dishes. In past years there was just too much great food and I would have loved to have been able to sample more of each of it.

I'd like to get a better plan of things to do on Saturday. Friday kind of takes care of itself because everybody is just happy to see each other and BS into the night. The lack of activity on Saturday may have been because the plans were so hit-and-miss last year with the road closures, but I think we can do better. The first year was great with Angus' demo. More stuff like that would be great!

Any other ideas, let me know in the thread coming up but post opinions about the dates below!

Take care,
Addam

If I remember in the past he would post January. Takes time for one to coordinate camping. Reason for the weekend March 20th for those with telescopes. This would be our 3rd SoCal hang.
For me I'm leaving March open.
