This August will be 10 years since the announcement of the closure of AMES. I was thinking it would a good opportunity to have a get together of the members of this site - hopefully in Rocky Hill, Connecticut. I'm not really sure how to go about doing this. Perhaps meet at a restaurant or something and then take a field trip to the former AMES Corporate Headquarters in Rocky Hill. Is anyone interesting in having a get together this summer?

Pat, I know, but it was over 2 years ago when you first posted that, so I thought I'd bring it up again. Was discussing this last week with a couple members I have on Facebook.

Marc and Chris already know my answer :) just name the day and time, and I'll arrange my summer vacation around it if at all possible. 10 years is a long time, but feels like yesterday......

That would be kinda cool I think. Be interesting to meet the people I've been chatting with on and off here since 2005, haha.

Has anyone decided when we are going to do this? My boss is pushing me to get my vacation request ready because everyone there takes vacation in summer. I have to see what weeks are available still but I need to know when the get-together is going to happen. Please please please...? :)

This could be something easier to do. 

Everyone gets to a former/vacant Ames near them and takes a picture.

I'm aware that this is old, but I am interested in meeting some forum members.

I may be taking a trip to the Syracuse area sometime relatively soon (within the next couple of months). Not sure if any members are in the area, but it's more northeastern than Cincinnati is!
