Some FL events for July 29 in 100 miles of Tampa. More than I thought.

On edit...they really need to put up a choice by cities. I can only link by my zip code, and I am not inclined to post that link.

The email I just got gives 17+ events within 50 miles, and several of them are already booked up. I see one of the USF events had 83 signed up.

Many are homes with limits of 20, but close to the limit.

Yep, they really need to add a by city link.

On average (because more get added) there have been 47...and almost all are full. When new ones get added, they fill up too.

That are possibly available. Message me if a group is looking for a meeting place. I can also provide a PA system.

Totally.

When I've been browsing for meetings on the 29th, in various areas of the country, I've first gone to USPS.com, to find zip codes for a city or town, so I can then make the search.

They need to modify the search page (zip code or city searchable) AND they need to put back up Bernie's town meetings and events, like they were previously. His New Orleans event can only be found on his site by search for a New Orleans zip code...and it's not even on his FB page.

People may not even know what they are even supposed to look for, it's super confusing.
