[Event] Milwaukee meet UPDATE

[catgirlprime.livejournal.com]

Bradford Beach
DATE: Friday, August 13
TIME: meet up at 11 AM - 9 _{at the latest}
PLACE: meet up at Bradford Beach concession stand; Milwaukee

★★★You'll be looking for America and fem!Canada.★★★
★This is casual cosplay, chickadees. I also don't want anyone getting heat stroke on me, so please dress for the weather and wear comfortable shoes.


★Bradford Beach is near McKinley Park and Lake Park. Nearby are numerous restaurants, but there are also plenty of shady spots to relax and have a picnic, if we so chose. We can walk around to different spots in the city for pictures, food, and the like easily enough as well.

★Please comment if you're planning on attending with how many people [since some like to bring non-LJ friends, and that's perfectly fine] and who you're planning on dressing as, so we know who to be on the look out for.

★If people have questions on getting to the beach, just ask for go to a site like Mapquest and enter the address you're coming in from. You can get there by car, bus, bike or foot if you live close enough. I'm sure parking's going to be a bear, though, so it may be best to ask a parent or friend to drop you off/pick you up.

Are there any Milwaukee-Racine-Kenosha-ish area people interested in a Hetalian meet up?

We were unable to go to the Chicago meet up and feel depressed left out.

We're still looking for a suitable location.
Right now, options are looking like: the Domes/Mitchell Park; Bradford Beach; Boerner Botanical Gardens.
Most likely, it'd be causal, too, since people might be a tad concerned seeing a blonde guy walking around with a giant battle axe...

Comments, suggestions, general display of interest, or any form of input are much appreciated.

I think I love you. c:

I'd totally be interested! I was pretty bummed about not being able to go the Chicago meetup too... But this would make up for it. :D

_{I punched my friend in excitement.}
:'D Any idea where would be a good place to meet up? Someplace that people won't get, like, mugged or shanked or anything, preferably |D;;

=^..^=~

OMG I was hoping there would be one that I could go too....I'm unfortunately without my cosplay yet TT-TT

I'll be interested in future ones though for sure.

[catgirlprime.livejournal.com]

It'd most likely be casual so we don't freak out any of the residents or anything...casual's a lot easier to throw together than an official. _{Cuz I know I don't have the money for an official one.}

=^..^=~

[blacksoulandy.livejournal.com]

Then I'm so in!! I want to meet people. I'm new to Wiscounsin.

[catgirlprime.livejournal.com]

_{Oh my. Welcome to the state of cheese and beer. ;D} As we go along I'll update this entry, so stay tuned. c:

[blacksoulandy.livejournal.com]

Thank you and I'm excited for this. I've been wanting to cosplay Hong Kong since I read about his character ^^

[punchy786.livejournal.com]

The Domes doesn't sound like a bad idea, except for maybe the admission fees. What about Doctors Park or around the Schlitz Audubon Nature Center? We probably wouldn't get mugged/shanked there, and there's some pretty nice spots for photoshoots and such.

[briefasa.livejournal.com]

I'd totally try and make it!
I need to cosplay out in public more often. I haven't been doing it too much lately. :c
I'd most likely be Belarus, but I may go as Poland if my Liet can come, too!

[catgirlprime.livejournal.com]

Awesome! :D Any suggestions as to where, exactly, we could all meet up? We have the idea of the Domes, which do cost money [[but it's fairly affordable, I think]], Bradford Beach, or Mitchell Park so far...any suggestion is most welcome, though~

=^..^=~

I'd love to, really, but Im still trying to recover from the Botanic Gardens meet up yesterday D:

[tsukino123.livejournal.com]

however if its in about a month I should be able to go. Around Septemberish maybe???

[tsukino123.livejournal.com]

I have pictures!! you missed soooo much!!! I'll do a post asap

[sameekin.livejournal.com]

Madison-Hetalian here. Totally able to go to Milwaukee though!

[cannianniroxas.livejournal.com]

That sounds wonderful :'D
The one in Chicago was loads of fun but such a far trek x.x Totally worth it though :3

The Domes are wonderful, you could do a park if you wanted? Bradford beach is very lovely~

[catgirlprime.livejournal.com]

That wild, huh?

We haven't even thought of a date, yet. We're both in college, so it'd most likely be next month or a weekend.

=^..^=~

[catgirlprime.livejournal.com]

Cool beans, man. We're still planning, but we'll keep everyone posted.
The big thing is location right now. Then a date. |D

=^..^=~

[catgirlprime.livejournal.com]

I was rained out; I couldn't go to Chicago. ;^;

I don't remember if I've been to Bradford Beach...I probably have.
The Domes would be really cool, and it's not too expensive. I'm sure a lot of people have student IDs or a parent's AAA, which could get a discounted ticket price.

=^..^=~

[cannianniroxas.livejournal.com]

Da'ww D:
Yeah it was so bad in Milwaukee
Giant sinkholes and such

Its very nice. :D You could also try South Shore Park? Its very lovely and right on the Lakefront. There are a few beaches there to
Also no mugging and such there either xD

I'm actually from Waukesha but Im out in Milwaukee so often xD

[kana-dragongirl.livejournal.com]

This sounds awesome. I had a lot of fun at the one Chicago, it would be cool to have one close to home. I don't know too much about Milwaukee but, the lakefront was always nice. I'd prefer not to pay but maybe with my I.D. it won't be that bad.

[kenichi-bokushi.livejournal.com]

Definitely !! It would be nice to have a meetup a little closer to home sometime!

[catgirlprime.livejournal.com]

That sinkhole got Wisconsin on national news. xD Brilliant. Wisconsin = sinkholes, now?

I think I may know South Shore, too..._{I should really ask my parents. My friend and I aren't all that great with directions or remembering places |D}
The no mugging is a good thing! :D We like not being mugged.

[catgirlprime.livejournal.com]

Cool! Any ideas on location? Ideally it'd be somewhere we wouldn't have to pay to enter or anything like that...

=^..^=~

[catgirlprime.livejournal.com]

The lakefront is nice...I love the water.
Oh my God, if only we could get a boat xD Epic Hetalia water party.

The Domes is $5 unless you're 18+, but there's discounts for student IDs and AAA. So it's not unreasonable, but it'd be better if we didn't have to pay.
Everyone likes free things, after all.

=^..^=~

I'll have to think about it. I don't live in the city proper but near it, but I have a friend who lives inside the city, so I'll ask him if he has any ideas.
