I'm attending Control4 training in Charlotte NC from Monday, July 25th until Thursday, July 28.

From what I'm hearing, I won't have much/any time in the evenings due to homework.

I am however talking to Brendon about doing a meet Thursday afternoon, or Friday and maybe even Saturday.

I need to know if there are any guys in town or near by that want to get together, so I can plan my travel (return flight, hotel, etc.) accordingly.

I'm staying in Hyatt Place Charlotte Airport/Lake Pointe.

I'm not getting a car based on advice of few that went to the training.


P.S. crosspost from IP

Brendon lied to you, he lives in PA, not NC.

You and Brendon need to keep me posted on what your plans might be, and I'll think about wasting a couple hours so you guy can have the thrill of seeing me.


Of course, you'll need to make some time so you can go to the young mans favorite place. SnapAV.... :-)

Ugh. Jocks and Jill's does absolutely suck. Good news is the shuttle will take you wherever (within reason) found an amazing BBQ/Mexican place! C4 does do very good lunches!

Haha!! Go to the ROOOMmmmmm! Everytime I " go to the room" I can hear Jacob yelling that lol!

Ken! I'll be coming down for sure Thursday evening and flying out Saturday morning. I would love to be graced by your presence! :P

Not sure what that means -- yet.
Looking forward to the class.

Brendon might drop in just to take another picture of the instructor :-)

Can I get an update on this? When this first came up, I was buried up to my f****ing eyebrows and didn't have time to comment. You know I'm always down with trying to get together with someone from the RC group

I live in Lancaster, SC, which is about 30 minutes south of there. I might be able to make it. Though, if any C4 reps are going to be there, maybe I shouldn't. Wouldn't want to turn it into a cat fight or anything.

Dean,

Maybe do something on Friday after they're all done with the blow up dolls.... :-)

Homework has been eliminated. I just went three weeks ago and the format has changed for more lab time in class.

Enjoy

Mario, any idea yet on where your training is or where they are putting you up? The area where snap put everyone was good for getting together.

Casey,
Love to see you again.

Here is the plan (as of right now):
My class/test ends Thursday, no later than 5PM.
Brendon is coming in Thursday afternoon. We'll hang out and do whatever.
We're hoping to spend full day on Friday at Snap, but haven't confirmed those plans with G.Paul, yet.
Friday afternoon/night is all open.
Checkout of the hotel on Saturday morning to catch mid-morning/noonish flights.
Mine is scheduled for 11AM from CLT.

As for accommodations;
I'm not renting a car as hotel shuttle will pick me up from airport and my training is few hundred feet away.
Brendon is probably going to rent small car, unless we need to upgrade (depending on # of folks).
I'm planning on staying at Hyatt Place Charlotte/City Park (482 feet from Control4) 4119 South Stream Boulevard, Charlotte, North Carolina, USA 28217
Depending on how many people want to crash here, I might have to upgrade a room, unless we do it CEDIA style and sleep on the floor/tub :-)

It doesn't look like the Control4 training and my hotel (next door) is too far away from Snap's place.

Were you thinking about making a day with Snap as well, or just the evening hangout.
Consider spending the night so you don't have that long drive back that same evening.
