COMMUNITY

I thought this was already decided?

I submit Bandon Dunes and would be willing to help lead the committee organizing a trip there.

"Location and dates to be decided by committee by end of Feb."

This isn't a bitch but a reminder that you can pretty much count Frank, Kelcey and a couple others out of future NGT's if you're deciding by end of February. Why? Well, it's already been mentioned in an earlier forum. Which was pretty much the driving force of that whole forum post. See below.

3rd paragraph: >>>there are guys in the group that have been coming for several years that need SPECIFIC dates for the regular NGT in the Fall BEFORE January 15th so that they can get the time off from work.<<< So it needs to be put together before New Years in order for them to attend.

I suggest Kapalua and the Dunes at Maui Lani the week of Labor Day..

Big bet.

You should have consulted with me prior

Exactly what I was thinking about when I read your post

South Florida is the easiest place to go... and start a committee from.

At least I started the conversation in time and did so in a public forum.

OMG! Its 68 degrees here and I'm freezing. Can't wait till it gets back to the mid 70's to low 80's again.......

I need my sweater vest for Friday’s tee time

It is 35 here with 20+ winds. That will put a brrrrr in your Captn Crunch.

I'm considering a career move.

I feel so fortunate to have fortuitously found this site and NGT. I am plussed to have been re-united with my friend Jay (1500 miles), I have made some new friends ( all of the NGT group) especially Don and Vince; Kelcey and I have gotten closer as a result of the trips (listening to him snore and spending time with his family in Florida
....Anyway, I love going to Florida and plan to often from now till death but i would also like to experience other (golf) venues as well. E.G. N.Carolina, Texas, Arizona, Wisconsin, ETC.
Jay does a great job getting us great deals in Florida. Don has honed in on N. Carolina.... Wonderful! .. it doesn't seem that anyone else has the gumption to take the reigns for their preferred destination.. My solution is this.. form a committee as Vince suggests.. Simple: 3 guys to table some ideas, collect the feedback and ultimately putt up the best ideas to a vote from everyone..
I nominate these 3... Jay..Don..Vince
there are several others who are worthy However, I think that these 3 are familiar with just about everyone, have strong drive, strong viewpoints, and will ultimately will speak honestly and for the group.

I do realize however, that Don has made the ultimatum that if we chose to go anywhere other than N. Carolina that he will not be "the guy".. As such if anyone truly wants to embark on another venue he should be prepared to plan the trip as well.

... finally, I wrote this after 2 good shots of Whiskey ( that's a lot for me)

I read it after drinking Irish Coffee (that makes us even)
