    Default Midwest Laser Enthusiast Meet (MWLEM)?

    Since I live is St. Louis, I've been toying with the idea of planning a LEM for the midwest, since there has never been one before. It seems like more and more laser hobbyists from the midwest are popping up, so maybe it will be worth it so we can all get to know each other and show off our stuff..

    St. Louis would be my choice for the location, since it is centrally located.

    Anyone interested post here..

    Of course, anyone would be welcome, not just midwestern folks..

    St. Louis is a little bit of a drive for me but not too bad. I'm in if it's a decent venue with enough people.

    I'm glad to see all the interest! Obviously, this is still just an idea. I will begin trying to plan it all out and will post here with updates as it goes.

    I'm not too far from St Louis. Count me as a strong maybe depending on the date.

    Finally- a LEM < 500 miles away
    Depending on the date, I could bring a few toys.

    I would think a LEM in St Louis could be more of a national LEM as opposed to a regional LEM. Dont get me wrong, it is much further than SELEM, but it should be the same average distance no matter what "coast" come of us are on. I'd have to fly though. I am DONE driving to IL...
