    Starting a Massive Texas Meet!

    Big news, everyone! We're starting a large Texas Meet-Up soon! Let's call it the Lone Star Mer Meet!

    So for the LSMM, we're hoping to aim for the Austin area because it's right smack dab in the middle of our lovely Lone Star state and so therefore would be easily accessible - it also would allow for lots of watering holes and a few great rec centers to choose from! If you have any suggestions or questions, please let us know!

    P. S. We will make sure that the date(s) of our meet will NOT collide with other large meets!

    Ah so excited! Me and my mermate would love an Austin meet up. We haven't met any other mers in the area, which is strange since we're all supposed to be so weird here in the Capitol. XD

    We had the 2014 state mermaid meet at Krause Springs. We were also going to do Hamilton pool or whatever it is, but it was flooded or something. Krause Springs was very cold that year, but our little meet had fun anyway and got a lot of attention there.

    Krause springs is gorgeous! The little grotto there would make for some amazing photos, though the water can be kinda murky. Makes swimming underwater a little difficult, but there's also a little spring-fed pool area of that bothers some mers.

    The LSMM is officially underway!

    *I blocked off 15 rooms, each of which can accommodate up to 3 people, in the Hilton Inn & Suites Downtown Austin Convention Center for Friday, July 15th through Sunday, July 17th. There is a pool in the hotel, but I also hope to bring a couple of talented photog friends with me on the trip and head to some more scenic places around Austin with whomever wants to get pro photos for their mermaiding business!

    *The price of the hotel is $189 per night, but everyone is encouraged to share costs because they're larger rooms! They'll be charging my card at the end of the stay, so you can each give payment to me. There is no entry fee, only the cost of your room.

    *Etsy sellers and artists, please bring items you'd like to display to advertise your businesses as well!

    ***I need your RSVP BEFORE June 24th to ensure you get a spot! We currently have slots for up to 45 mers to stay at the hotel, which is a lot! I have until that date to change the number of rooms necessary for the meet! I can get either more or fewer rooms by that point. Everyone is welcome! You also will need to message me with your full name as it appears on your ID so that I can forward all of our names to the hotel.***

    ***The reservation is under "Lone Star Mer Meet."***

    *I'm going to attempt to get in touch with some watering holes around Austin to prepare for our arrival! If we can reserve them, too, we will!

    *If anyone would like to be a guest speaker, that would be fantastic! Let me know and I can either get an additional convention room for you or we can have a casual conference in the pool area.

    This meet is going to be fun and pretty casual! I hope to see you all there!

    I'll be making the official event and inviting our pod! It'll be public so anyone can get an invite! I just need your solid RSVP before June 24th!

    If you have any questions, suggestions, or ideas for games and events, please feel free to message me!!!

    Love,
    Lotus <3

    Oh yes, I remember! I just thought I should mention that for any non-Texan mers as well. Haha
