As you can see it's the whole weekend\, which gives you a choice - come on the Saturday\, come on the Sunday or stay the whole weekend! Please take note if you plan to sta y with us overnight\, it will be your responsibility to book your own room s and unfortunately if your under 18 we cannot help you with this! If you were to stay the night - under no circumstances will TPM get involved an d take responsibility with how you stay overnight\, the overnight sectio n of the trip will be an over 18's event\; however we will like to see yo u during the day at the park. Also for this meet the Tower Nerds/Street co mmunity are more than likely to join us. This is a fantastic opportunity t o socialise with our northern counterparts and to show that the enthusiast community spreads further than one forum.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n This event w ill also be introducing a new game for the meets called 'Knockout.' I bel ieve it will be in the same league as Spooning &\; Empire which have pr oved extremely popular. (Yes I said it\, I'm comparing it to that standard - shoot me ) There are also a number of activities we will be doing too over the weekend so vote of your intentions on what you wish to partake in  \n\n\n  \n\n\n\n The Outline of the day/s will be as follows: \n\n\n\ n  \n\n\n\n Meet by the frog jumping fountains at 09:00 am just inside the entrance if you wish to take advantage of the park's ERT. We will ho ver for 5 minutes whilst everyone gets together but then going off for ER T\, if by any chance you happen to miss this meet point due to travel arra ngements/ Cannot participate in ERT or just plain lateness you can phon e or text so we can arrange to meet you. Please bear in mind we will leav e without you if you are late as it’s not fair on time keepers! As memb ers have found out! We will then continue visiting the attractions and it will be arranged beforehand that we will try our best to get on all the at tractions.. I know not everyone will want to do some of the rides at Alton Towers. If you decide to not come on please be polite and wait for everyo ne to come off and chat to other members whilst you are waiting. Or go off and do another attraction as long as you’ll be back after the group has finished riding the attraction. Please respect other people’s wishes wh o wish to ride certain things that you yourself may not be too keen with. During the day\, around half 1\, we will stop for a bite to eat where you can go and eat where you like and we will arrange where to meet after eve ryone has finished eating. (Who knows we might all want to eat the same t hing anyway ) After lunch we will group together for the Official Group P hoto for the meet and continue going round the park and riding the attract ions people want to do until the park closes. \n\n\n  \n\n\n\n I will be handing out my phone number for everyone who is attending the meet that d ay\, should there be any problems. We aim to stay together as a group for the day\, going from one activity to the next\, enjoying getting to know p eople you share very similar interests with\, the idea is to just go with the flow and enjoy the day with some awesome people. There will be many ph oto’s in the day being taken and the possibility of a few video clips. W hilst we cannot force you to stay with the group\, it is the general purpo se of these meets! You will have my number (and some of the senior teams) if you become split so by all means use it. The meets are a fantastic laug h and everyone is invited\, even if you have never posted before or been t o any kind of meet at all. If it's your first meet\, I understand it can b e nerve wracking - but we were all there at one point so know how it feels \, please don't let this stop you from attending - once there you'll be pa rt of the group in no time! Just look at the past trips this year!\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n I will soon be posting in the meet's thread about possible acc ommodation locations which you can use to help you decide where to sleep ( If you're staying for the night). If however you know where you're going a lready by all means book it up! I know for example I will be staying at a Travelodge in Newcastle half hour away as it has some good night life ar ound there   \n\n\n  \n\n\n\n Once again\, everyone will have my phone number so please use it on the day  If anyone has any issues or concern s or even nervous about coming\, feel free to post in the meet topic\, or PM myself and I will get back to you as soon as possible. If you feel like my response is taking too long another member of the team will be more th an happy to help. We will all try and help you out as much as we can.\n\n\ n\n  \n\n\n\n Hope to see you there!\n\n\n\n Peaj\n\n DTSTART:20160624T230000Z DTEND:20160626T225900Z ATTENDEE;CN="Marc";CUTYPE=INDIVIDUAL;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED:conta ct@maniahub.com ATTENDEE;CN="Celia Mae";CUTYPE=INDIVIDUAL;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED: contact@maniahub.com ATTENDEE;CN="David B";CUTYPE=INDIVIDUAL;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED:co ntact@maniahub.com ATTENDEE;CN="stretchy";CUTYPE=INDIVIDUAL;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED:c ontact@maniahub.com ATTENDEE;CN="Daniel.S312";CUTYPE=INDIVIDUAL;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTE D:contact@maniahub.com ATTENDEE;CN="Matt 236";CUTYPE=INDIVIDUAL;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED:c ontact@maniahub.com ATTENDEE;CN="Topsyturvy15";CUTYPE=INDIVIDUAL;PARTSTAT=ACCEPT ED:contact@maniahub.com ATTENDEE;CN="Mer";CUTYPE=INDIVIDUAL;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED:contac t@maniahub.com ATTENDEE;CN="AJ ";CUTYPE=INDIVIDUAL;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED:contac t@maniahub.com END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
