Me and Blondie need your help....

General
Hey guys,
A bit of news as of the future of the group. No, we are not dead and/or going to die, but changes are coming and this is more than what we can do. Since FWA was a bust since nobody showed up due to either timing or schedules, it got me thinking of a few things. Due to
and
suggesting other meet ups in different scenarios for them, this may be an option in the future. As for AC, we still love Jim and his LEaf and Bean business and have no plans of ever leaving him. Jim is still a thing for AC. There maybe future events for him as well. John for Cigar Times in Atlanta, whether you have time or not, he still welcomes us with open arms and I encourage anyone to give him some love and business.
Ideas and suggestions from Foxamoore and GuNMouTH:
Foxamoore: The idea would mainly suggest that a major part of going to conventions is to get everything set up early and get what needs to be done either for business or fun and eventually when it's all over, that's when your moment of Zen is to relax once it's nearly or all over and you want to unwind. Quite honestly that makes alot of sense since people who have busy busy schedules. This may be a future thing of different takes on meets.
GuNMouTH: Even when there are lounges, sometimes they can be a bit of a travel whether it;s a few blocks, or several. The idea itself is setting like party meet ups, either for smokers or anyone who would like to socialize. The issue is setting up a place at the Hotel, in the hotel, or a private area where smoking is allowed. Drinks and cigars would be provided, but that would be a byob and byoc thing honestly. Depending on the scenario and who sets it it up will play a factor. This may be a future plan for other meets.
Representatives for Cigar Furs: This may not come as a surprise to some, but when it comes to doing a group like this, there is so much that me and
can do, cover, or places to set up. The idea is that we need some of you to help us spread out to cons and lounges that we can give some business to. Not only that, but be part of the inner workings of the group. With certain cigar companies having reps in certain sectors of the US spreading out to do business and sign contracts with cigar shops, you will be like that, except represent the group in spreading the word and hosting future meets depending where you go and what you find. You report to us on what goes down, who is te local shop, etc. We will give you feedback on who will host and spread the word. With every con coming once a year in each state, we will need 2 -3 reps for that con whoever is able to go. For this to be done, there is a catch.......sadly, since we are a non-profit group, we can't pay you, but we can symbolize you as a major gear that keeps the group running. All we ask is for your commitment to helping us spread out. IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED, LET US KNOW! Like I said before, me and Blondie can only do so much.
AC '16: It's still on and a schedule will be layed out soon. Stay tuned for that.
As of now, these are the updates.
Of course I will mention this again. We need representatives to help spread the group to farther territories besides AC and FWA. Let us know if you are interested in being a rep.
See you all in the future. :3
