  • *** The Official Unofficial I'm in for the first ever SurvivalCon 2011 ***

    If you think you'd be in for sure please reply to this thread with

    I'm in, and how many people TOTAL you would be bringing with you.


    Cost is looking like it could be anywhere from $75 - $150 per person for the entire event just depending on our expenses , how much food we need, portapotties, emt, tent rentals, power, insurance etc etc

    Right now I'm guessing $125

    There will also be substantial discounts for early registration

    ** Current thoughts on RULES are the following
    No Firearms, if you bring yours it needs to be locked in your vehicle at all times. There will be many other opportunities to talk and teach fiearms, a large gathering for the first time is not the place. This is for YOUR safety

    NO DRUGS PERIOD, other than prescriptions of course

    Alcohol - Would be allowed but you agree to use in moderation and responsbily, you would also agree to stop drinking to leave the property without a refund if your drinking becomes a problem.

    KIDS- Right now looking at other similar events we are leaning towards nobody under 21. This makes it a safer enviroment, less chance of small kids being hurt, lost, breaking or touching people's gear, and removes having to monitor drinking ages etc

    If this would keep a large number of people from being able to come we will be willing to talk about it, please weigh in on this topic int he other general thread, not this one thanks.
    *******


    NO idea how many we are really looking at 50 would be great, 100 would be a hell of a start to this event and anything more means serious business, what do you guys think we would see?


    Ok so let's see who's really in or not ;)

    Right now we are looking at Possible dates of Sept 30th Friday, Oct 1, Oct 2

    Or Oct 1 Sat, 2nd Sunday, 3rd Monday

    LOCATION: Middle Tennessee

    Weigh in let's hear it

    While it would be fun to meet up with ya'll, it's right in the middle of harvest for me and I'm not taking a chance on traveling far this year. Have fun though! Any of you find your way up near me, you're welcome to drop in or camp or come for one of our prepper get togethers.

                  I hope not. I've seen people I know drive 7 to 9 hours and stay overnight to attend a sporting event. Or worse camp outside of a store to get a fancy new gadget! Come on guys this could be an experience of a lifetime! You might even learn something that could save you life or someone you care about.

                    MJ LOL I was asking as stated in the 1st post, I need to know from each person who responds how many people total they are bringing.

                    I was asking if it's just you

                      Sorry Diesel! I misread I guess. I'd bring 2 other friends with me that are interested in survival/prepping.

                          Dang, I can't see why you aren't flooded with people who want to come. Instead, excuses. Well, here's mine. I am going to put your event (when you are sure of the dates) on my calendar. I've never been anywhere near Tennessee but we are planning to be on our way to Mexico for the winter around that time so ... it's possible. If so, 2 of us. And two dogs, if that's okay.

                          I wish I could say, "I'm in" but I can't. Going to try though and sometimes that works.

                              I'm waiting for more details before I commit. Any idea what town or general area it will be in? Also, is it safe to assume we could come and stay as long as our schedule allows? If so do we prorate the fees?

                              I'll put myself as a "maybe" for now. I'm selfish and with deer season and good college football games going on during that weekend I'll have to wait and see. :)
