Would it be possible to get a banner to take to Panama City Beach on Sept 28 2012. This will be our first Time Share trip as a owner thanks to TUG and would love to carry the banner.

I mailed the banner to Winger c/o NCV today. I will wait until my tech support arrives on Monday to try and post a picture.

It was cool to read all of the notes and different places where the banner has been.

Hey Amy . . . where are your photos? We'd love to see you folks too!

Sorry Jill. It looks like it is currently "on vacation" with another TUGGER . . . Aug 25 - Sept 2 Ridewithme38 @ Governors Green/Williamsburg. Maybe you can message him directly to see if he can possibly get it to you before you leave on Saturday.

P.S. Let me know if you do that so that I can update the listing :)

I've sent a PM to Ridewithme38 who was scheduled to have it before you.

You may want to follow-up with him as well. (See his message above #654 for the link to PM him directly.)

Black Diamond & KDJK . . . I've been trying to get a response from Ridewithme for about a month, but w/o success. I'm assuming he has the banner, but have not been able to confirm. As noted by SOS, he hasn't posted here on TUG for several weeks; I hope he's OK!

Until the banner location in confirmed, it's difficult to schedule its future adventures.

Perhaps there is another process being used for scheduling since I really just assumed responsibility for it this past spring when it was clear that the banner sent to me was not the one being tracked & scheduled here.

I'd hate to think this one got lost too, as that seems to have been the outcome of at least one of the original banners.

I'll post a follow-up once I know something to share and we can move forward with scheduling.

Brian or Von,

Is there a new banner in circulation? I see this thread sort of fell off after October. I'm heading to Wyndham Grand Desert Las Vegas Feb 15th.

Also, doe TUG have a store? I'm sure pins, t-shirts, bumper stickers would go well. I'd love to go to an "owner's update" with a nice little "TUGS" pin on my shirt. Not a big button, just a nice pin. Or how about hats?

<<snipped>>

I have sorta dropped out of the loop on this since Brian said he was handling with Ride . . . and there were no further updates. Sorry.

This photograph was taken during our Panama Canal Cruise that went roundtrip from Fort Lauderdale. The trip was paid with HGVC points.

It would appear that Facebook has put MyFamily out of business. This has resulted in the deletion of my previous photos to TUGbbs. Sorry about that.

I am trying photobucket for the first time since MyFamily.com has stopped working. This photo was taken on a Princess Panama Canal Cruise roundtrip from Fort Lauderdale. The cruise was paid with HGVC points.
