navygirlfriend....sometimes the RDCs, we love them they know we do, as a means of motivating the division to work a little harder. They know that PIR and liberty is what the recruits are working towards so what better way to get them to push forward. Don't panic yet!!
My PIR group did have the Meet and Greet at Anastasias. We wanted to have a really oriented affair and had 167 people in attendance. I was really only expecting 131. We had an awesome time and the people there were really great. We were an extremely tight nit group and when these folks said they were going to be there...they absolutely were. In fact, the manager bet me my dinner, that I would have less than 50 people there and then eneded up calling in all the managers and every server he could find...and had to close down the restaurant to outside traffic...lol!! So we took over the whole place. The food was great...people ordered off the menu...from just a coke to full meals. They had great things for the kids as well. Now we kept a check on what was happening at the Ramada but there was only 3 or 4 people there. Other hotels actually shuttled people to our meet and greet and many people have joine N4Ms since PIR. So there is my story. I hope that helps. I would say this, if you are going to have it somewhere other than the Ramada, make sure you have a very good count, I posted the RSVP list in chat, several times a day and asked people to make changes or additions to it...so everyone on my list except 3 people came...

SRA: All of the hotels are relatively close in that area. Navy Lodge and Ramada are too.

Thank you for posting the video SRA. "Z" is not a big writer so it's nice to see more of what he is doing.
