Thats the plan. Bob and I talked about trying to do it once a month, maybe Omaha, Gretna, Ashland area as well as getting one going in the western part of Nebraska as well.

Post by: RobertH on January 05, 2013, 10:02:09 PM
its a great way to meet like-minded people and help get everyone on the same page and get energized.  God knows we'll need all the help and presence at the capitol this year.

Title: Re: Weekend Coffee Roundup?
Post by: greg58 on February 07, 2013, 10:22:22 AM
I am interested this weekend, I live near Valley.
You guys mentioned somewhere between Omaha and Lincoln, I would be all for that.

Post by: gsd on February 07, 2013, 11:05:18 AM
Maybe we should split this...Omaha Roundup crew and Lincoln Roundup crew? Once we get a few regulars we can meet in Ashland/Gretna area and take over a coffee shop.

I know RobertH is busy with life right now, so he may not be able to go for it. Wallace? NE Bull? HuskerXDM? Any other lincoln guys care to chime in?

Well it looks like we could meet somewhere in Omaha, or go to Lincoln.
You name the place and time and I will be there, hopefully if we get that established others in the area will chime in.
I would like to put faces to the names I see here, how about something simple like a HyVee?
Let me know, and to others in the Omaha area I know it is short notice but lets do this.

Well I made the drive to Lincoln this AM and met some new to me NFOA members.
Thanks for welcoming me I had a nice time.
The food was good, the conversation was what I expected, just some guys BSing about guns, ammo, etc.
I would like to get something like this going in the Omaha area, I will try to start a new thread early in March.
