| 2008 Get Togethers Posted: 1/31/2008 6:43:47 PM | | April 26th I think I have enough advance notice now. Just let me know where. | |
|
| 2008 Get Togethers Posted: 1/31/2008 7:56:07 PM | What about the Des Moines area since it is Centrally located? Plus I am from there and make it up about once a month, would love to meet and hang out with ya all as long as I know the weekend in advance... | |
|
| 2008 Get Togethers Posted: 2/1/2008 8:23:27 PM | Ya'll could do a profile search and send out invites to the area you want included? To be honest,this is the 1st time I ever looked at the message boards,bet there are many others. | |

| 2008 Get Togethers Posted: 2/19/2008 10:02:37 AM | I'd love to get together with other POF'ers from Iowa...however....I live in the very upper midwest corner and it seems as if most are quite a ways away from me. It's not a matter of driving to meet up. For me it's more of a matter of finding the time to do it. I work 2 jobs and have kids 50% of the time. I just can't take a weekend to meet up with some interesting people. To drive2-3 hours is one thing. But Des Moines is 4 1/2 hours for me...one way. That's 9 hours of driving for to meet up with some people for just a few hours. Gotta weigh the pros and cons..yanno?  | |

| 2008 Get Togethers Posted: 3/11/2008 3:47:35 PM | Hmmmmm Would this qualify as a fishin' trip?
Sorry, I couldn't resist! | |

| 2008 Get Togethers Posted: 3/12/2008 2:47:28 PM | | I am in just let me know where. i think it will be fun...... | |
|
| 2008 Get Togethers Posted: 3/15/2008 9:53:42 AM | | Is there any more information about a POF get together? | |
|
| 2008 Get Togethers Posted: 3/17/2008 8:53:40 PM | Well, if it's near Dubuque I'm up for it. Maybe Quad cities, but I'd have to think about Waterloo or Cedar Rapids.
Not trying to be picky or anything, just don't like driving 1.5 hours one way twice in one day - the highway is too boring. | |

| 2008 Get Togethers Posted: 5/3/2008 8:51:11 PM | Hi first time to the forums, they dont seem to be doing much in Iowa. I'm interested in going to one of these get togethers or possibly helping to get one going. What type of place does it need to be held at ; a park , in early spring(before the skeeters)(Backbone) ??that could accually be fun,a bar? Galena,Ill.?,are we looking for some place scenic, or just a place to get together,indoors or outdoors . There are some nice parks up in Clear Lake,Ia. also. Well my suggestion would be to keep it simple and have it outside some place central to the most requests for the get together, and have it be a bring your own drinks(cooler)for sure and to bring a dish if you can. I dont know,just some ideas. Lets DO IT !  | |

| 2008 Get Togethers Posted: 5/4/2008 2:05:00 PM | | I would be all for it if i had a vehicle. But with me living in the Northwest Corner of Iowa (Spencer) It would be kinda hard at the moment. But if we get one going during the summer and i have a vehicle, count me in! | |
