I just saw that the American Atheists National Convention will be Easter Weekend, March 29 – April 1, 2018, in Oklahoma City. [atheists.org]
Anybody going to this?
For those who have been, what is it like? Is it worth going?
Please share any thoughts or insights. I'd love to see us have a meetup there.
WOW!
The hotels want to charge you $15.00 a day to park your car after soaking you for $124.00 with taxes to stay at their hotel!
I would like to attend that is just too much BS to pay extra for parking and overt conventioon fee to boot!!
Athistism is sure expensive to attend a Convention of other Atheist's!
I go to college in Texas, so if school allows it I will definitely be there! Have been dying to meet more people in the Athiest community
I am going. I missed the last one. I am looking for other people who want to split a room or rooms to help with the cost. Friend of mine went to one and they split the cost of three rooms. It gave them a chance to get to know new people as they toggled from room to room. Also gave them a chance to help some who could not afford a room.
If anyone is interested in splitting a room or rooms let me know. Message me and I'll give you my number.
Thanks
I’m really going to try to go this year—it’ll be tough to get the time off. If I do go I think I might drive. I went to One in Minneapolis (in 2008 maybe), one in Des Moines in 2011, and the one at the Reason Rally in 2012. I also had VIP seating and it was amazing!!! I love the conventions because I can totally be myself and not worry about people going on the defensive! I really hope I manage to go and maybe I’ll meet you there!
I'm going! I'm really excited. Can you tell I don't get out much? I forgot it was Easter and April Fools, lol.
