Hey all, I decided to make a new thread in case you didn't want to read 100+ replies in the original thread. The specifics are below:
Ron Paul is scheduled to speak on Friday at 3:30 PM, and he is scheduled to do a book signing at 4:30 PM. These might run a bit late, since the CPAC main ballroom is typically a bit behind schedule. That said, we think it's a good plan to meet in the main lobby of the Marriott at 5:30 PM to meet and greet our fellow forum members.
From there, we'll head out the main doors and proceed to The Asylum Lounge, which is 0.8 miles away. Looks like walking is our best bet, but the walk shouldn't be bad. (Having frequented the area of Asylum quite a few times, and since CPAC is right next to the nearest metro station, I can assure everyone that the walk is quite reasonable.)
The website for Asylum Lounge is here: http://www.asylumdc.com/
Walking directions can be found here: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=marriott+wardman+park+hotel,+washington+DC&daddr=2471+18th+Street+Northwest,+Washington+D.C., +DC&hl=en&geocode=FV7yUQIdlT1o-yFP8YJHEoR-QQ%3BFcvmUQIdhm1o-yl9pk4s2re3iTGw9PtRb2Ccxw&mra=ltm&dirflg=w&sll=38.923785,-77.04851&sspn=0.008347,0.02105&ie=UTF8&ll=38.921189,-77.045918&spn=0.016694,0.0421&z=15
We plan on being at Asylum for a couple hours before heading back to the Marriott for several liberty-friendly events that night.
If you plan to attend, please RSVP in the poll above. I'll call ahead and let the management know of our plans so that we can ensure room for everyone - although it's a fairly big place, I'd like to be safe.
Thanks all - look forward to meeting all of you! :) :collins:
SUMMARY:
1) Meet in the main lobby of the Marriott at 5:30 PM. (I'll make sure you can find us.)
2) Walk to Asylum Lounge
3) ???
4) Profit!
