Hello /r/Minneapolis!
A time and date has been set for Global Reddit Meetup Day! To best serve both Minneapolis, St. Paul, and the surrounding area, I've picked a place that's located relatively between both cities and surrounding suburbs. The later-afternoon time has been picked to better accommodate Pride Weekend events that many people go to late-morning/early-afternoon.
- *Location:** Minneahaha Regional Park, Picnic Area #2
- *Time:** 4PM - 6 or 7PM. If others would like to stay later, we have the spot reserved until 10PM.
**Map of location:** https://i.imgur.com/Jc7t1el.png
- *What to expect:** ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ It is not required to share usernames or any revealing information, but perhaps you'll meet a new friend, discover people with a similar hobby, chat about recent happenings, meet faces behind the usernames, or just have a friendly disagreement with a mod. Reddit admins have indicated they'll be sending me some minor reddit swag to give away, so hopefully I'll get it for GRMD!
- *What to bring:** Whatever you want, within reason! Feel free to bring food (there will be a grill available), snacks, friendly dogs, yourself!
- Don't be a jerk. If you are being abrasive, are overly intoxicated, or simply trying to marsh the mallows of the meetup, you will be asked to leave.
- We will be meeting at Picnic Site #2, which is incredibly close to the Minnehaha Regional Park Pavilion, which offers food/beer for sale.
- Per MPRB rules, only 3.2% ABV beer is allowed. I'm not going to police you if you bring your own, but please do not make it incredibly obvious and try to conceal it. Also, please abide by the "Don't be a jerk" rule if doing so.
- This is a dog-friendly location, so feel free to bring you pup! However, please only bring your pup if he/she is friendly towards other dogs.
- It is HIGHLY suggested that you find alternative ways of arriving, whether that's an app-based ride sharing service, electric scooter, or bicycle! Traffic and parking is usually a pain in the rear, but that's your prerogative.
- I (/u/igacek) will be there, but not sure how long I can stay. If others would like to stay longer, feel free, but please continue to respect the rules above.
Feel free to leave any questions/comments/concerns/random thoughts of the day below.

Well that sucks. I can't go, volunteering for pride. That wasn't a good day to pick.

I'm running a bit behind, but am on the way!!
Edit: I'm here! Pulling a hard John Travolta in Pulp Fiction right now since I don't see anyone else, but look for the guy in all black with a bike!
If you're driving here, there is plenty of parking on Nawadaha and around 44th ave!
