Blogger Meet-Ups In the Near Future

by Michael Hickerson

There are two blogger meet-ups coming up

Saturday, July 28, is the monthly meeting of the Middle Tennessee Bloggers and Podcasters group in lovely, downtown Smyrna, TN. It kicks off at 2 p.m. CST.

it is a pleasure to formally announce the meeting this Saturday at 2:00 p.m. for the Middle Tennessee Bloggers and Podcasters’ Group. The meeting will be held in the 2nd floor conference room at my business: Bob Parks Realty, 557 Sam Ridley Drive in Smyrna.

We have invited Alderwoman Senna Mosely from LaVergne to talk about our grassroots efforts (via the blogging community) to start a Beautification Committee in Smyrna’s sister city. We’d love for people in Smyrna to also attend to share your experiences with the folks from LaVergne.

Sunday, August 26 is the blogger picnic, organized by the social committee over at Music City Bloggers.
Let’s get together and celebrate our blogging community!

We’re gonna have a picnic at Sevier Park in Nashville on Sunday, August 26 from 1pm until 6pm.

This is an All-Skate. Families, kids, doggies, kitties and small farm animals are all invited.

Please bring a covered dish…or two. A grill will be provided for those who would like to fire it up. Sorry, no alki allowed at the park, but there is a great playground! (I’m sure a game of challenge-kickball will break out, as well.)

We will be under the covered pavilion…it has picnic tables, but you may want to bring a lawn chair along.

Sevier Park is located at the corner of Granny White Pike (12th Avenue South) and Kirkwood Avenue. Feel free to e-mail me at GingerSnapsTN-at-gmail-dot-com if you are unclear as to where that is.

If you did not receive an “official” Evite from me, PLEASE send me an e-mail so I can send you one.

We hope you can make it!!!

  3. Emily Says:

    :( I did not receive an official e-vite….

    Sheesh, you leave the country for one week and you become completely ostracized by your local blogging community.

    I didn’t get an e-vite either…but oh well…I can still crash!
