Spring is here and there's no better time to talk REI! Come on down to our final meetup in Downtown Bangor before we transition in June to our summer venue (hint: our new venue will have outdoor space).

Whether you're just starting out or you're a real estate veteran, consider yourself invited to our Central Maine Investor Meetup.

We meet on the first Wednesday of every month so mark your calendar for monthly evenings of cold beer, tasty snacks, and an abundance of great real estate conversation.

Please click the "Attend Event" button if you plan to attend so we can get a sense of numbers and share this event with anyone you feel might benefit from attending.

We look forward to seeing you there!

We've been hampered by winters' worst the last few months but mark your calendar for our next meetup in Bangor on April 4th! With spring right around the corner, there's no better time to come out for some great REI networking.

We'll show winter who's boss!

The winter weather hindered our scheduled meetup on March 7th so we'll just have to muster some Maine spirit and come on out to the new scheduled event in Bangor on Wednesday, March 14th.

Winter seems to be conspiring against us!  

With the predicted unsafe driving conditions for Wednesday we're going to have to postpone the March 7th Meetup.  Let's instead meet on Wednesday, March 14th.  Same time, same place.  

I'll create a new event for it now.  Hope you guys can make it.  Stay safe out there in the upcoming storm!

Hey @John Harvell, the "attend" button should be visible between the BP disclaimer and my initial post at the top of this thread. It's right near the little pictures of those who have confirmed attendance and near the "report" button. Please let me know if it doesn't appear on your page.  Thanks!

Hey REI Mainers!

The winter weather hindered our last meetup so for most of us we'll have two months of activity to catch up on over drinks this time.  Looking forward to great conversation at our next meetup in Bangor on Wednesday, March 7th.

@Dustin Shoemaker

Ryan's done a good job outlining how our local meetup was born.  As he said, don't get hung up on the logistics.  Your primary focus should be networking with other folks in your market.  

Find a local place that costs nothing (bars, restaurants, etc. are good, especially mid-week when they're slow and would appreciate the business). Then post a meetup on the BP event page (you'll have to be a plus or pro member to do so) and if only one person shows up to that first meeting then hey, success! You've got someone to talk REI with! Also, go back through the forums, see if anyone has talked about meetups in your local area and reach out to them directly, inviting them to your event. Just don't do promotion on the open forums or you'll endure the wrath of @Mindy Jensen :)

It will snowball from there as long as you are consistent.  Same time, same place, without fail.  With meetups, consistency is key.  Not everyone will be able to attend each time but if it's always at the same time and place, people can start to put it on their calendars.

Please feel free to PM me if you wish. 

Hey Everyone, 

With the impending winter weather that's about to hit it seems like a good idea to postpone this evening's meetup.  

We'll re-schedule for tomorrow (Thursday, February 8th @ 7:30pm).  Same time, same place, just one day later!

Should you know anyone who was planning to come tonight please pass the message along that we're postponing until tomorrow.

Please don't travel tonight unless absolutely necessary.  Stay safe out there and we'll see you tomorrow at Nocturnem!

Hey Guys and Gals, thanks for the fantastic turn-out at our last meetup (despite the winter weather).  Let's keep the momentum rolling with our next meetup in Bangor on February 7th.  It will be a great way to shake off that cabin fever!

Hey @Brett Jones, we had the January meet-up this past Wednesday on the 3rd.  The next one will be Feb. 7th.
