Re:newbe in NC wants to know closest chapter

Tim welcome to the site!, We do not have one set up in North Carolina Yet but that could change anyday. You are welcome to join any chapter you want to get involved until one opens closer to you, or you can take the plunge and start one yourself. <br> I know for a fact there are many guys in NC that would like to get in one as well once it gets started. I myself will probably Join the Virginia one for now as I do not have time to make a decent effort on a chapter here and do the National chapter work as well.<br><br> Let me know what you decide and If you want to consider starting a chapter I will send you the paperwork, if you want to hook up with another chapter for now, I can send you an application for that as well. You can also email the Local Chapter president if you choose.<br> <br> Once again Welcome to the site! and I hope to hear from you.<br><br> Lary Ellis

Re:newbe in NC wants to know closest chapter

Howdy, I thought we already had a chapter in N.C.. I thought it was started last year. The MITDR, Pres. Wes, Vice. Pres. Chris, Sec. David. Or was I drunk? Anyway timedewaltman, we meet every month to other month, when ever we can get everybody together. Some of us camp, Do you have a camper? We go to Virg. and they come down here. Just whatever is going on. I'm over here close to Charlotte, glad to have you!<br><br>Kimrey

Re:newbe in NC wants to know closest chapter

Welcome Timdewaltman<br> There are a few of us NC turbo heads out here. The chapter Scott is talking about is the Mid Atlantic TDR that is from the other site. We have a core group of roughly 6/8 guys that get together and shoot the breeze. This last month we tried to get together but due to the weather only a few of the brave hearted ones(or foolish ones) where able to make it. The smart ones stayed at home. ;D ;D It was a bad weekend due to a ice storm in the area. There are a few of us talking about getting a N C chapter started, so far it has been just talk if you want to grab the bull by the horns then all I can say is GO FOR IT. With that said you can count me in for a member.<br><br>Happy Holidays to all<br>See Ya<br>Chris

Re:newbe in NC wants to know closest chapter

I told the truth too, I didn't even stretch it. That guy in the next camper was the final straw to the event. Look forward to the next meet but not at that place.

Re:newbe in NC wants to know closest chapter

timdewaltman, I love to camp. That campground sounds like a camping trip in Jan.! I'll camp no matter what the weather! Outrider, you have the ultamit party place, that would be a good place for a big meet in the spring? I'm throwing ideas around, I need a calander just for the TDR, DTR events. Anybody have one?<br><br>Kimrey
