Well, as the co-creator of the idea, I fully support this idea!! ;D Guys! I think this is an outstanding opportunity to not only meet with The Master, but also workout like mad men and pick the brain of the man behind the myth. It will not only be intense training, but tons of fun! I strongly suggest you take E up on this idea. I workout with him once every month or so and I come back to my gym better and more focused than ever...not to mention with ideas on how to make my training better. I tell him every time that I always pick up a tip or two when we train. More like CRE-ator! You have been on me for the last couple of years to do this!!!!!!

What time of year do you guys think would be best, and what would you like to get out of such a weekend? In other words, how could I make it the most fun and beneficial for all of you? Hmmm, as far as beneficial, thats YOU all the time!! For me personally, 3-4 months out, because of work reasons. The school district is getting really touchy on when we use our vactions.......

AS FAR AS DATES GO...
We have to have a little bit of time to plan this thing and we have to do it around the Olympia (late Sept) and Eric's show (mid-November), so I am thinking either...
1) sometime in early to mid-September;
2) sometime in mid- to late-October
Anything earlier than that would probably be too soon for everyone (and Eric to plan) and anything later than that would bring us too close to Thanksgiving and the holidays.
Obviously, I am up for whatever, since I am here already! ;D I jsut thought I would throw out some ideas.

The hotels in South Florida start to get pricey come the end of the year. Septemeber may be cutting it close but reasonable. Anything after that and it may be too expensive. If E needs help planning this I can help him out. I have some experience in booking large gatherings.

This is an outstanding idea! I've got family in Ft. Lauderdale, so lodging wouldn't be a problem. Now if I could only manage to get away from work for awhile!

Eric and Rantorcha,
You oughta look in to some sponsors maybe to put together some goodie bags of stuff for the people who attend. I'm sure Eric you could get some VPX product and/or samples, and I could definitely get copies of MD and FitnessRx along with t-shirts, tank tops for the girls, key chains, etc etc.
We could also talk to some of the supplement store owners we know around here....like the VS manager...or the owner of Max Muscle. Come on guys...I'm sure we could get some sponsors for something, at least a goodie bag!!

That is a great idea, sho, and we've actually spoken about that as well as possibly getting a hotel, and possibly a restaurant, etc., to work with us for the weekend. But as E has said, we just want to gauge the level of interest, as well as when would be an ideal time to do it for everyone.

Well, the truth is I would need quite a bit of help getting this together because I am so damn busy. Thank goodness I have people like Rantorcha, Fitsho and Greg around me. Maybe this can come to fruition.
I guess we will have to discuss the best possible dates and go from there.

Unfortunately, this fall will consist of a lot of research, potential job/fellowship interviews, and the writing of my dissertation along with the publication of some papers, so I will not have the time nor the money to get out that way. Maybe if there is a repeat next spring or fall I will be able to attend. T
