Hello, everyone!
Final details below for Global meetup day!
**What: Reddit meetup day**
**Where: Central Park North Reservoir Landscape A/B/C**
**When: Saturday June 22nd Noon - 6pm**
What will we do at the park? Well... that's up to you. I'll be bringing, with help, Giant Jenga, and JS Joust. We'll also collect money that day for people who want to chip in for pizza. **Feel free to bring some food, games and other things to play as well.** We'll also have some help from the local NYPD precinct and their community affairs team. NYPD Central Park Precinct was extremely helpful with parking and clean up.
The links below will show you how to find us. The red circle is where our permit is set. There will also be chalk on the ground so you can follow the arrows as well.

We've come a long way from when the group started. The first global meetup we had a permit for 50 people, and had over 400 rsvp! We lost track of the number who showed up after we counted 200+ people.

Yes I'm still alive. I'll have a bunch of shirts to give out too.
edit: I'm aware of the typo... I'm out of practice! Also, if you're wondering why there. 1: logistics is easier there. 2: THERE IS A BATHROOM CLOSE BY.

Why are there only 9 comments on this? Is there a different hidden discussion thread or is the NYC meetup the most dead GRMD event?

Why central park? Should do governors island instead.
