    Hey everybody!

    If you haven't noticed, Los Angeles doesn't have a fan force chapter. I've been talking to Elan-Rai about this, too.

    We need to set up a meeting with at least three people in attendance. We'll have to have two more meetings after that, but first things first, right?

    I was thinking, for those of us that are interested, we can meet at a public place, like Universal City Walk, Hollywood/Highland and maybe watch AotC or some other fun thing.

    LA is a big area, so we can decuss the closest place for everybody who wants to come.

    Personally, I spend the school year in LA city itself and my summers in Riverside county, so I'm open to just about anywhere.

    Anyone interested?

    Alright, now we're getting some where! :D

    Padme, you have SW friends at school? Where the heck are they?!?

    Well, anyway, a possible spot for meeting is defintely around USC. I'm currently on break and in the IE (yet am strangely more connected to LA).

    We now, of course, have three people. I was hoping for more, but I guess we could plan something.

    To be truthful, I was hoping to really get this up and running when school started again, but I suppose I can just drive a ways for our first coupla meetings.

    I think that we first need to come to a conclusion on where we would like to have our initial meeting... I suggest the Irvine Spectrum (The town center) Any other suggestions...

    I'm up for forming a chapter in Los Angeles Too. After going to Celebration 2, I was surprised how little LA Fans were represented. The other Cities fans looked like they had great fun. I was a hit dressed as Silent Bob. If We do start up a Chapter here, I would like to also include View Askew fans in there. It could give Uniqueness to an L.A. chapter. There are so many Star Wars References in Kevin Smith Films, I think a combined Fandom would be a good idea.

    CityWalk is okay I guess, but it sucks having to pay so much for parking... and aside from meeting like on campus, there's really nowhere near SC that would be a good meeting spot.

    How about Dennys! LOL j/k ;)

    Yes, city walk is a pain for parking. Can you think of anywhere else?

    Silent Bob, although a combined fandom sounds like an interesting idea, I doubt FF would approve. Besides, many SW fans may not be Kevin Smith fans.

    How about just trying for Universal for at least the first meeting? I know that the parking costs are a pain..
    But once we get the first meeting going and set, and meet each other, then we can find a better/easier place to meet for the following meetings..

    City Walk's fine.

    I think I'll bribe my best friend into giving me a ride.

    EDIT: Remember that we have to let Fan Force know in advance.
