About this Meetup


ABOUT US(...or "How We Roll")


Intro
Welcome, Prospective Movie Fan, to the Tampa Movie Fans Meetup(or "the Group"). My heartfelt thanks for visiting our site and this "About Us" link. Please read it through and before you join, go to the link to The Five and a Half Rules at the bottom of this page.

Our goal is to offer members( we call "Fans") opportunites to go to the movies with like minded people. As your Organizer, I consider it my responsiblity to provide this service to you at the best of my ability.

Event Planning
I work with my Superbly Awesome Assistant Organizers ( or "S.A.A.O.s") and volunteer Hosts in deciding what to schedule. We take into consideration:

    What's coming out with good buzz.
    Fans' requests (message board,emails,word-of-mouth).
    Scheduling feasibilty


Rendevous
We meet at a designated spots at the different theaters. For consistency, the meeting spots that are usually on the left, as you walk in. We try to wait for our 'Yes' respondents, then we take our seats.

Meetup Spots

Go to the link on the Site that says "Photos". There is a photo album called"Our Meetup Spots"
We've posted photos of where we meet at most of the theaters we go to. (Tampa Theater is one exception. Beautiful place, tough to take pictures)

After the show, and sometimes before, we decide on a nearby location for our 'After-Movie Social Hour'. It's usually dinner, coffee, drinks or desert.

Thanks for reading this through and, as I said earlier, every Fan can come to me with questions, requests or concerns.

This is the link to the Membership Agreement We ask all who wish to join the Group to read it. We will assume any Fan joining the Group has read it and has accepted its terms:

The FIve and a Half Rules

Sincerely,
Lee
Founding Organizer
