how the meeting go?

After it happens, we will let you know, but seeing as you posted at about 12:15 am Salt Lake time we haven't managed to get people together in the 15 minutes we have had today...

Just a note, if you enter on the West Side of the building we will be in one of the rooms on that floor.

If you don't enter on the west side, you will very quickly become confused and may never find us. The building is easy to get lost in, so I would recomend using the west enterance.

(For those who are dirrectionally challenged, that is the side that is facing the valley.)

Which parking lot should we park in?

Also, is the building to the North of Rice Eccles Stadium?

If I take TRAX, should I get off at the 1790 E South Campus stop?

[Lizzie Bee]

The pregnant lady will bring the food! Any requests?

This should not happen tonight, but at some point; we have to make green jello with carrot shavings & Funeral Potatoes for Pastorino, Fitzgerald & Ellinger; you know, we should get them used to Utah.

Also, am I going to have to pay to park? Are there parking meters that I need coins for?

Here is some addition directions and info about the meeting:
Probably to most correct it would be across from MUFA, in-between Huntsman & Eccles.
Here is a map of the area. It doesn't show the Huntsman Center or the Institute building.

Ast. GM/marketing guru Trey Fitz-gerald is confirmed to attend the meeting. He will take part in the meeting. He may be open to a Q/A.

The Loyalists has be registered with the State of Utah as a non-profit and has a bank account. Attendees will be able to pay their $15 membership dues that will run until the superdraft of 2006.

No charge for parking.
I've never taken TRAX past RES so I'm not sure when it would be best to detrain.
The carpark sort of wraps around the building. Park into the west and enter through the big glass doors. If not you may need a gps unit in that building.

Since there weren't any requests, you're stuck with sugar cookies. I'm even going to try to make them soccer-themed. :D

[blitzzfan]

I'd like soccer-themed sugar cookies. Mmm.

Well, I logged in at work; guess this year is shot now.

Earlier today when everyone was asking questions, I thought, "Blitzzfan is working and dysko is probably sleeping... So unless blitzzfan logs in from work....."

I figured you were on a lunch break.

The pregnant lady will bring the food! Any requests?Pickles and ice cream?

[rsl neil]

What happens at these meetings anyway?

[Lizzie Bee]

Pickles and ice cream?

Yick! The very thought makes the pregnant lady feel sicker! :o

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to blitzzfan again.

Hilarious. At the last meeting I entered through the East doors and indeed got lost for like 20 minutes. I suggest going in from the West side too. That is really cool we'll have an RSL exec there, everyone start thinking of good questions now so we don't ask stuff like "so... we gonna score a lot of goals?"

[SoccerPrime]

Ask Trey about the Hankinson sacking, the possibilty of Balboa being our enemy and what he thinks of San Jose still being around next year.

Oh and ask him some RSL questions too!
PS Talk about the Real Challenge, our Loyalists spanish website and who do we make the checks out to for the Loyalists dues!!!

[Bonji]

Ask Trey about the Hankinson sacking,
Why, do you want Hanki as your assistant coach? Ask him how bad you're going to lose to Colorado next season. :)

We had a very productive meeting tonight. There were about 18 people in attendance, I believe, including Trey Fitz-Gerald, the Senior Director of Marketing at RSL. I took five pages of notes, which I will make available in bits and pieces over the next few days. All the notes pertaining directly to the Loyalists will be available within 24 hours if all goes well.

We also received a lot of information regarding the team in general from Mr. Fitz-Gerald. Those notes I'd like to summarize into a better structure and then email them to Mr. Fitz-Gerald to confirm that the information is accurate before making it public. Of course, this may all become available before then by the DesNews reporter who attended the meeting. My notes should be more comprehensive than a newspaper article, though, at any rate.

If it was earlier in the evening, I'd post information tonight. :)

Thanks to Montgjules for what were really good "soccer themed" cookies and for taking such good notes (I want to sit by her for the test).
Also to Glenn and Dave for all their legwork in getting us organized, to Scott and "insert name here" for the great artwork and to Trey for taking the time to include the Loyalists and help keep us informed.

This is really getting fun!
