    Midwestern 405th division

    #1
    405TH MIDWESTERN UNITED STATES DIVISION


    The reason for this is to help co-ordinate member to member (or to encourage) events, Conventions, and just plain getting together and hanging out with people who share the same interests.

    The hope of this thread is to encourage users to become more social, if anyone wants to start another thread of the same topic, just in another region, by all means try. If you want me to then pm me, I aim to please.

    Current Version: 5.0

    What's new?

    Thanks to L3X all members listed have a link to their profile, any that aren't will need to be updated, but will be soon after being put on the list (once I figure out how to do that ).

    We have now moved from the Noob Forum to the General Discussion Section as well as being 'stickied'. This is to better insure a permanent place for this thread and because this is a thread about member locations and events, not a build or questions on how to make armor which would have made it more related to the Noob Forum. It's our hope that through this move we will continue to hear from all of you members in the Midwest!

    Our Off Site Facebook Group

    https://www.facebook.com/405thMidwestern?fref=ts

    Total Number of Members in the Group: 30 (incorrect number, needs to be counted up)

    Events:

    As well as locations, I've decided to add conventions and other costume/game meetings to the list. How this will work is, anyone who know of a con or meeting will post the date and place with the name of the event. Like the names and locations, I'll edit my posts in the state posts and put in the Events and where/when they're at. I hope by doing this we'll let others know when and where members will be able to show off their work, and further this thread's goal of making this community a community. I'll add the events as I become aware of them.

    Members from these states will be able to participate, (if you don't live in one of these states, but reside close to one of the borders you can enter as well).

    Illinois

    Indiana

    Iowa

    Kansas

    Michigan

    Minnesota

    Missouri

    Nebraska

    North Dakota

    Ohio

    South Dakota

    Wisconsin

    All of these states are recognized by the U.S. Census Bureau as the Midwestern states.

    Now, how to enter is post the name of your state, the city (if you want, you can just add rough location or county, if you feel shy.).

    I will compile a list of users from each state and post them in a the posts below. I keep up with this site, so if you post, there's a really good chance you'll be listed, and soon.

    I hope to hear from you all.

    Sincerely Seth_Knight_of_New_Wales

              Not a bad idea. I've been looking for a way to meet up with 405th members near me.

              As it says in my profile, Springfield, Illinois.

                        Hey! Former midwesterner saying I fully support your cause. I've been preparing with Trooper0621 to revive the Cali brigade, it'd be great to see the various groups formed as this is a great way to build community spirit. This place is so much more than a tutorial site, and things like this can really bring it home.

                          Thanks all of you who have participated and thank you Katsu, I'm just trying to make this forum a place where people who make and love costumes are, not just a website where just a bunch of name tags discuss things that no one really know -who- it's going to help.
                          With the California brigade I say go for it, maybe even try a west coast division, if we can divide, we can conquer (lol).
                          If anyone wants to post topics or ideas for the Midwestern Division just raise your imaginary hand and post, this thread is for the members in the Midwest, it's a true democracy, everyone has a say.
