I live in NKy and I find it difficult to justify driving 30+ miles(one way) to attend a meeting. Gas prices obviously won't be coming down anytime soon.
It's my understanding that there are others that feel the same way that I do.

I want to attend but at a relatively more convenient location. Soooo....
Rather than staying in one location with weekly meetings it would seem that moving it to 3 or 4 regular locations on a rotating schedule might meet the needs of all.

Maybe a knowledgeable backpacker in the the group from East Fork or Dayton or Ky could have a splinter group under the auspices of Zuper Dave's high command would do it.

Thanks for starting this discussion. (Mark and I discussed this privately, but we need input from interested members as well as people from the various areas to step up and be assistant organizers for the various venues.)

I'm going to put up a poll and e-mail everyone to chime in. BUT FIRST... what areas of the Cincy Metro Area WANT meetings in their area. (But don't say "mine, mine" if you aren't committed to coming - schedule pending, of course.)

Another ? is: What do we actually want out of our meetings? I really enjoyed our last meeting and all we did was chat. No agenda, just drinks and talk.

We too are in N Ky and think rotating the locations of the meetings is a great idea.
