HOWDY YA ALL
I WAS JUST READING ALL THE POSTS ON THE UPCOMING PICNIC FOR THE ONTARIO CHAPTER. I WAS THINKING THAT PERHAPS WE CAN SETUP ONE OF OUR OWN IN ALBERTA. DUE TO MY JOB I HAVE A FACILITY (150 SEAT) AVAILABLE SHOULD MOTHER NATURE GET BITCHY.
ALL THE MEMEBERS FROM ALBERTA, LETS GET TOGETHER AND SEE IF THERE IS ENOUGH INTEREST.

You mean go down south to Cowtown. :eek:

Have to think about that one.
If it's Labor Day long weekend then I can watch the Eskies kick the Stamps butt.

WELL OUT WEST IT SEEMS TO BE RESTRICTED DUE TO DISTANCES NEEDED TO TRAVEL. I GUESS MAYBE WE WILL HAVE TO DO IT ALBERTA STYLE. WE'LL PICK A TIME THEN WE ALL CAN HAVE A DRINK AND TOAST ALL THE OTHER CRUNCHERS. IF EVERYBODY OUT HERE YELLS "CHEERS" LOUD (IN UNISON) ENOUGH MAYBE PAWLY CAN HEAR US DOWN EAST.
TRYING TO FIND THE DATE AND TIME OF YOUR EASTERN PICNIC ON THE FORUM IS FUN. PLEASE POST TIME AND DATE HERE AND AFTER ALLOWING FOR TIME ZONES WE CAN ALL TOAST THE TEAM, THE COUNTRY AND ALL THE GREAT PEOPLE THEREIN. I HAVE SOME FANTASTIC HOMEMADE RASPBERRY WINE THAT I WILL BE CRACKING OPEN FOR THE OCCASION. WHATS THE FAVORITE DRINKS OF THE WESTERN BUNCH?
I POSTED THE IDEA OF ALBERTA STYLE PICNIC HOPING TO GET SOME INTEREST BUT THERE WASN'T ENOUGH TIME TO REALLY GET IT GOING. PERHAPS WE CAN PLAN FOR NEXT YEAR. BEING IN THE SERVICE INDUSTRY MYSELF I KNOW ITS BEST TO PLAN WAY AHEAD AND ADVERTIZE. THATS WHAT WORKS OUT HERE.
OUT HERE IN COWTOWN THEY KNOW HOW TO NAME A BAR. http://www.ohcanadarestaurant.com/ CHECK OUT THE FACTS ON MAIN PAGE.
PERHAPS A WESTERN VERSION OF THE MOOSE JAW AND MEDICINE HATS BAR? (WHERE IS THAT PLACE ANYWAY? SOUNDS TO ME LIKE ITS SITTING ON THE ALBERTA / SASK BORDER)
CHEERS

HOWDY FELLOW CRUNCHERS
BY THE SOUNDS OF THINGS THE ONTARIO PICNIC WAS A SMASHING SUCCESS. CONGRATS TO THE WHOLE BUNCH.
LETS START PUTTING TOGETHER SOME THOUGHTS FOR AN ALBERTA
BOINCERS PICNIC OR PARTY FOR NEXT YEAR.
DATES ARE WIDE OPEN AS ARE LOCATIONS. WE HAVE QUITE A NUMBER OF GREAT PLACES IN THIS PROVINCE FOR SUCH AN EVENT. SUGGESTIONS PLEASE. AS A SUGGESTION SOMEWHERE NEAR CALGARY FOR THE SIMPLE REASON THAT I HAVE A COUPLE OF MEETING ROOMS AVAILABLE FOR GETTING OUT OF BAD WEATHER OR FOR A LATER PARTY OR BOTH. I HAVE A 50 SEAT AND A 150 SEAT ROOM AVAILABLE. STEREO / P.A. SYSTEM. AND OF COURSE I GET A GREAT DEAL. CHECK OUT THE DANCE HALL HERE ALEXANDRA CENTRE
BUT LETS DO A POLL FIRST AND FIND OUT WHERE EVERYBODY IS. CHOOSING A LOCATION WOULD BE MUCH EASIER ONCE WE CAN SEE ALL THE PINS ON THE MAP (SO TO SPEAK).
COMMENTS AND IDEAS PLEASE.
