It has been suggested here that we change the start time of the Breakfast Buddes Events from 8 AM to 9 AM. Please let us know what you think!

edit poll length to 7 days

If the votes continue to come in the way the currently are (7 votes for no change, 8 votes for a later time at the time of this posting), I'd suggest that you consider switching off occasionally, have a later one every once in a while, no one says that they all have to be at the same time (or if someone does, I disagree with them). Just a thought.

Have a great day all!

People have had problems in the past remembering which date it was because they were always on the last Saturday of the month. If we happen to move it due to holidays or conflicting events then people end up showing up w/no event Sad

There has to be some sort of consistency to the setup. I'm happy to move the time if the majority decides that it's best to do so but I'm not going to change the times unless the event venue dictates it (i.e. we don't use an OCB and they open at a later time).

The vote will close on the 17th.

Yes, heaven forbid we actually ask people to actually read the cache details to see the location and time!! or to sign up ahead of time (like we did with the last woodbury event).

I respect that, and if a clear majority wants the time to stay the same, I will be more than happy to relent to their feelings; I also want to make this as easy as possible for people, thats why I suggested the later time, to make it easier for people.

All I'm saying is that if it's a split decision where a clear majority is not found, alternating times wouldn't be that difficult, and it isn't asking too much from our members/potential members to open the cache details and see the time and location (they already have to do this to see the address of the location).

However, the one at the end of December needs to start a little bit later so that we don't have to leave the cities before 0500.

Just one more comment. I would prefer the 9 am. time normally if I was going to attend one of these events due to the travel time for me. After all it is a 2 1/2 hour drive for me just to get to the TC. Let alone find out where I'm going once I would get there. Has there been any thought of haveing an event out my direction? Say in Willmar?

Just asking.

I don't know of any rule that you can't host your OWN event.
