Matthew 18:20 "For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them." This is the final round of voting for the C.C. American Worship Weekend / Meetup 2010! Well, the jury is finally in - we have PAINSTAKINGLY narrowed the list of cities to a final TWO, and after working with many vendors, theme parks, airlines and facilities, we have assembled and priced the best two itineraries for a showcase showdown! We want YOU to decide where it will be! We really want to acknowledge God for how he has brought so many companies together who are willing to provide us with amazing rates, group discounts, promotional rates, etc to make these itineraries and AMAZING bang for your buck. AND THE FINALISTS ARE... Dallas, Texas and Orlando, Florida These two locations were chosen for a few reasons... 1) Out of all the major airports with cheap fares, these offered the most air carrier discounts with connections. 2) Being that the judges aren't used such things, we wanted someplace with lots of excitement, sunshine, starry skies, and swimming - these two certainly have it all! 3) Dallas scored very high in the poll of potential attendies and Orlando's itinerary just sounded SO cool that we couldn't help ourselves. 4) While keeping the cost down, these two had, by FAR, the best itinerary options for the target group-size and diversity we are looking at. Bear in mind that while these numbers are REAL, they will require that we have 20 comitted participants to make them stick. The purchasing can NOT begin until we get that number of people who will sign up! We are in hot pursuit of more discounts within THESE prices that could shave off even more, making it cheaper for everyone! Even so, I would be really suprised if you could find a gettaway THIS awesome for this cheap again any time soon... It's still in the planning phase, so there's a little room for adjustment, but these itineraries are quite useable "as-is". Let us know is you have suggestions. Enough jib-jab... Here are the rough itineraries! Please select WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING you would seriously consider attending?? Please don't vote if you are not serious about trying to come.

FAQ'S: How do I get there and how much will THAT be?? You will need to get to and from the meet-up destination city.
Who can come?? I'm asking that you be 18 or older to attend, unless your folks are coming too. If you have friends and family who would like to attend, they are ABSOLUTELY welcome! Married couples can share rooms and save some dough. Be advised - accomodations at the camp and on the boat are going to be dorm-style, guys with guys, girls with girls. For obvious reasons, there will be no acceptions unless they are married or family. If you need a little more personal space and/or privacy, there are some options available on the boat, but they come at a higher price.. let me know if you have questions about it! When do I need to have the money?? In order to make sure we have rates locked in, we need to be able to make a group payment in full 90 days prior, afterwhich reservations become non-refundable. If we cannot get the full 20 people by that time, we will have to call it off and nobody pays anything. To put yourself on the list of attendees, I'd like to ask for a $50 deposit (refundable if we don't get 20 people in time). That shows that you're serious and we can count you in. Who are you and can I trust you with my money?? Frankly, if you don't feel you know us enough and don't feel led by the spirit to do so, please don't take that kind of step We'd LOVE to have everybody who can make it come, but the purpose is fellowship and fun. We intend to honor Christ in all areas of stewardship, be it time, money, or relationships. If you have to choose between being able to contribute to C.C. and being able to come, PLEASE make sure to keep contributing to C.C.! We love this place and the people who make it happen - they need your continued support! First and foremost, we want this to be an event that honors God. He has blessed us with this family and we intend to protect and cherish that! All glory to God! *PLEASE NOTE - THIS IS NOT AN EVENT OFFICIALLY ORGANIZED BY CHRISTIAN CHAT, BUT INDEPENDENTLY BY ITS MEMBERS. PLEASE DO NOT FLOOD THE ADMINISTRATORS WITH QUESTIONS REGARDING THIS EVENT. * IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, SUGGESTIONS, OR WOULD LIKE TO VOLUNTEER, PLEASE CONTACT POLARGUYINAK@YAHOO.COM AND TITLE YOUR EMAIL "2010 MEETUP". GOD BLESS YOU!!* Malachi 1:11
"My name will be great among the nations, from the rising to the setting of the sun. In every place incense and pure offerings will be brought to my name, because my name will be great among the nations," says the LORD Almighty. |

I replied to you in the other thread, man. Needed to make the call and things weren't coming together for a worth-while Chicago itinerary that would be appealing to all age groups and interests. There IS always next time... this is the trial run for such a thing for C.C.

Yeah this is an awesome opportunity to meet people but i know for some of us its hard to go to these locations because we are not near them but i do think having in the future many different CC meetings would be awesome like a region thing depending on where you live in the states or out of the country! I doubt ill be able to go only for the simple fact that im about to head to college and well everyone knows college kids have absoultly no money!
but look forward to meeting people that are near by me! Ive met 5 people from CC and have enjoyed everyone of them!

This sounds like the coolest thing ever, and I wouldn't have to save up much more than I did for last year's vacation. Posibly less. But the way I saved up that money was by not buying any food except rice and eggs for several months. It looks like May 13th is the deadline for when we have to decide. Unless I did the math wrong. I won't vote until I get a good plan for saving up.

Obviously from being on the planning committee of this I voted *will attend no matter where it is*....BUT, I am more leaning towards Orlande/bahamas cruise myself.
(AND....keep in mind that there MAY be additional discounts that apply to both of these trips...but we painstainkingly worked out what we thought the final costs would be w/out any perks or discounts.) |

It seems to me... you could cut the price in half if you just come Thursday afternoon and bypass all of the expensive hotels, amusement parks and pizza socials. Lol!
I would love to come - but it's not for sure, I'd first need to save all that money. Should I still vote? I'm leaning towards Dallas, just because it's cheaper. |

Quote:
Really hope you can come ![]() To address the first part, (listen up folks) regardless of whether you want to take advantage of all parts of the trip or not, since the group budget is based on dividing up costs (and discounts) between everyone, the cost is fixed as advertized. It will not INCREASE. It MAY decrease, depending on how many confirm. Worst case scenario - 20 people DON'T sign up or don't come up with the money by the deadline, and we have to call it all off. To address the second part, if you have any intention of TRYING to go, please go ahead and vote. Naturally, we want to give the most say to the people who are planning on being there. I would like to have given the voting options of "I will go to either, but I PREFFER Dallas / Orlando". Maybe it's not too late.. I'm not sure.. (Alayna? - since I know you're going to be following this thread like a hawk - can you contact me with feasibility on making changes to the poll?) God bless you guys, everybody : ) Love in Christ, Nathan / PolarguyInAK |

If the poll is edited, can we change our vote?
I'm hoping to start working soon, cus I really Really REALLY want to go.
