KC Area noob here as well. I'm all for attending a meetup in the area. I wanna see everyone's cool PV toys and plan my next purchase!
Riverside, MO is still smoke friendly and pretty convenient to most of the metro area. Crazy Olive's (Sports Bar) at the Argosy would be perfect for a small gathering.
Anyone else up for this?

Ok, last post here was March.
So what would be the goal of getting together for you guys? Me? I'd just be so totally interested in meeting fellow vapers! Are you interested in meeting in a bar that allows smoking for the convert potential?
I'm in Overland Park - but see that the majority of you are up north - which is totally ok! I'd really go anywhere - because i can VAPE N DRIVE!! I recently ran across this place that I really liked - it's in probably Lenexa - about 103rd/Pflumm. It's called the Stonewall Inn. This comes to mind because it's summer and they have a HUGE patio area with seating (very shaded) - bar inside (meaning serve cocktails) - great menu - not very expensive. Very friendly and very, very casual/laid back.
I vaped and vaped and my sis and I sat out there for hours! Again, nobody said one dang word to me!!
Anyway - post here or PM me if you guys are interested. We could try to schedule a get together for July. We could even rotate areas from month to month.....
Thanks for the PM, Blue. I had not revisited this thread in a while, but I ran into SkeeterKCK yesterday, and we discussed getting something going.
If Mother Nature keeps the heat on, we may be better served meeting inside at a bar/grill in a 'burb that still allows smoking. I know Riverside does. I also believe Belton and perhaps Raytown are still smoke-friendly. Since there are so few of us, lets just set a place/date/time for a couple of weeks out and make it happen.
Upthread, Skeeter says she can make a Monday meet. Monday OK with anyone else?

Depends on if I'm "in state" or out. Travel has me gone a lot this time of year.
I know the Applebees in Gladstone allows smoking still and they have decent food and drinks cuz I happened to stop there last week and was surprised when they asked me if I wanted smoking or not. Told her I don't smoke and I liked saying it.
Only took me 43 years to be able to say it tho.

Well, what the heck...Lets do this.
I'll be at Crazy Olives, the sports bar in Argosy Casino (not in the casino, but in the building) on Monday, July 25th at 7PM. I'll try to bring some of my converts who aren't on ECF, and pack a bag with some flavors to swap/sample. Bring your flavors (and some empties) if you want to share.
This joint has great drinks and really good food, priced about the same as a Chili's or Applebees. Right off of 635 and MO 9 Hwy in Riverside. Vaping (and smoking) still allowed there.
Please reply on the thread or PM me if you are attending. Monday evenings should be pretty slow, but if we have a big enough crowd, I may need to make arrangements beforehand.
Thanks,
John

Hey guys!
Wow great to see you planning a vape get together! Unfortunately the timing is really bad for me right now and I'm really busy with my business and have business related travel through the first week of August! Keep me posted for future get togethers tho! Nice to see more KC peeps tuning in that's for sure!

Hi everyone.
Just had my 2 year vapesary in March. Would be interested in hanging. I dont buy much cool stuff but I try to stay up on the cool things around.
Currently vaping a Madvapes adjustable voltage box with various cartos and home made juices(Mostly TPA flavorings).
We had a couple meet ups with peeps around town but that all kind of fell apart and have not hung out since about a year or so ago. I was able to make it to Midwest Vapefest which was one heck of a weekend!!
Would be excited to get a big meet up going but I am very busy with Family and work. I work m-f days and then go home and spend the evenings with my Lovely Wife and kidos(2 and 3 years old). I would be free most Friday evenings, all day Saturday and Sunday after church until about 10PM.
My Twitter name is @_NateDogg_
Also have email and on Facebook and Google +(IM me your Gmail address if you want an invite to G+), IM Me for my other contact info. Happy to connect with local members!

Blue, Sorry you can't make the 25th. Hopefully, we can build on this first get-together and make it better in the coming months.
Nate, Congrats on the 2+ years! At just over 5 months, I'm still a relative noob myself. After buying the expensive and disappointing "popular" kits, I got a Madvapes DIY box. It has worked fine for me, but it would be nice to see what other folks use, and learn from their experiences.
Even if you can't make the 25th, please pass the word to any vapers/interested folks you know.
Thanks,
John

A big THANK YOU to JustJulie from St. Louis for helping spread the word about our little gathering!
She has recently set up a facebook community for Midwest Vapers Group https://www.facebook.com/pages/Midwest-Vapers-Group/134366833299418 and is listing our event there. "Like" the group to stay informed via the facebook.
Thanks again, Julie!

I'm so excited to see the KC folks getting together. 
I have ulterior motives . . . I'm hoping for a KC/STL meet in Columbia down the road.
Your meet information has been posted on a few other forums, and it's making the rounds via Facebook and Twitter. If any of you do any social networking or belong to other forums in addition to ECF, definitely share the meet information. You'd be surprised at how far word travels.

I still dont know for sure if i can make it or not. If not, I hope you all have a great time and I will look forward to another meetup in the future.
I haven't seen a lot of response, so it likely won't be a big crowd. 10-15 is my best guess, Regardless of turnout, we'll make some new friends, eat, drink, and vape. There are worse ways to spend a Monday Evening.
Hope you can join us.
John
Hi there everyone, lol found the thread again. Took me forever. I got it subscribed so noexcuse for me not to know what is going on. I AM going to make the meet on Monday. I WILL BE THERE!!!!
Hi John, we meet again, lol
Hope to make some new friends,
Hugs,
Skeeterkck

Darn...I've always wanted to go to one of these but can't due to it being on a Monday...I work nights so this won't happen for me this time. It takes me about 2 1/2 hours to get to KC. Please post when you will be doing it again and I'll try to get there. Subscribing to thread.
Sorry you can't join us, Hairball. I have never tried to plan anything like this before, but I know summertime weekends are already pretty busy for a lot of folks with visits to the lake, kids playing ball, etc...
I am hoping to get preferences from anyone interested in attending future gatherings at to what location/day of week/time of day would best allow them to attend, and accommodate as many as possible. Once Mother Nature takes us off BROIL, we can look at outdoor venues, opening up other opportunities where smoking/vaping restrictions apply.
So, everyone interested, if you can't make it Crazy Olives at the Argosy Casino at the intersection of I-635 & MO 9 Hwy's in Riverside, MO this Monday, July 25th at 7PM, let me know via reply to this thread or PM what time of the month, day of the week, and time of day work best for you for future meets. I will do my best to schedule our upcoming meetings with everyone's preferences in mind. You can also send me an email at kcvapers@gmail.com
I look forward to hearing from you, and meeting you soon!
