MGB Experience At MG2006
Created on 2006-07-02 07:52:09
Members of the MGB Experience had a special gathering at MG 2006, the all-register MG convention held June 21-25, 2006, in Gatlinburg, Tenn.
While some members of the MGB Experience forum had gotten together in small groups and met informally before over the years, this was the first time a "formal" get-together was arranged, and certainly the largest gathering of members to date.
A crowd of 100 people attended the event at the Glenstone Lodge picnic pavilion on Thursday, June 20, including 50 people who are regular posters on the MGB Experience forum. (The rest were family, friends and guests.)
Here are photos of most of the members in attendance, with their names and MGB Experience user names and home states.
**NOTE: I'm really embarrassed, but there's a guy at the top who is unidentified, as we didn't get a photo of his name tags, and I'm just not 100 percent sure of the name. (I didn't get to talk to everyone, and couldn't otherwise possibly remember everyone from one two-hour gathering.)
So, If you can identify that guy, please email or private message me me so I can put a name on the face.
**ALSO: If you have photos of any of the BBS "regulars" who were at MG2006 but who are missing from this collection, please send them to me so I can add them.
Apologies that we didn't get photos of everyone at the picnic or at the show ... but we tried!
