That would be 2010 and I think that would be perfect. I would hope that after word got around how great this one was that some of the UPC folks who were reluctant to come to the 2005 one would show up.
I think the UPC folks at the last one had a great time and would agree that there was no agenda other than reconnecting with old friends and having a great time.
I would like to see that 70-30% exUPC vs. UPC ratio I estimated at the last one get to about a 50/50% ratio.
Perhaps if some progressive UPC church hosted it that could happen. A church that would recognize this as an event outside of normal "services" so all would be welcome regardless of their current religous affiliation.

maybe PM could suggest for it to take place at John's church in Atlanta.
i could see that it was indeed mostly people who had left UPC and i could tell that the UPC folks while they enjoyed it overall felt a little out of place
