Shrimp meets - first meet (Feb 13) info in post #44

We had a few good meetings last year, not sure if people are still interested in these gatherings. I don't mind organizing the events and even get some sponsors to donate prizes (live shrimps, shrimp products, ... etc), but the main problem is the venue for the events. Any suggestion?

If not in a bigger scale (i.e. a formal venue), I will just organize something in a local timmies so the old friends can just chat about shrimps and life.

I would be in for that, as would two others I know. Depending on numbers I would be able to host as well, but I am in Oshawa.

Hmm... Oshawa is a bit far but I don't mind the drive myself, not sure about others though. Definitely an option.

Im down for sure randy, let me know. dimsum is always a good gathering place.

I would love to come now that I have met a few of you. Much less shy... LOL Things are also getting more manageable

That's a great idea! The last meeting I attended was in summer, ... or something warm.
It was completely different weather experience

I would try and attend assuming it isnt farther then Markham. That is still a 1.5 hour drive for me

Count me in as usual.. It's been a while since my last shrimp meeting. Last year I was going both to East and West side shrimp meets.

Good to see the old friends, we had tons of fun last year. Still looking for a place to hold the meet.

So, if we do this in Oshawa, how many are willing to travel? We can carpool of course.

Date-wise, I would think keeping it on Thursday night makes sense. Starting at like 7, and I won't dare to set an end time as we never stick to it ;-)

cant wait!

Oh, that's too far

I'm with Igor. That's too far and Oshawa is also dangerous after dark.

 

[jimmyjam]

I second markham

If it's on a weekday, could it possibly be on the week of Feb 16th? Reading week is during that week. But then, that can possibly be too early to get notice out..

I am not sure if everything has been finalized, but Oshawa will be a bit far for me. Markham sounds a lot better, and would like to meet some of the east enders, and maybe see some west end faces!

If it is in Markham, I would likely show up. Might even bring a breeder box...

 

[randy]

Not an official one but a few of us will be at the Tim Hortons southwest corner of Major Mac and Markham road (very close Kim's nature) in Markham. We will be there between 3 and 5pm on February 1 (Saturday).

Let me know if anyone is coming too, I will grab some freebies for people who reply and show up. Freebies including some shrimps but either first come first pick or random draw.

 

[darkangel66n]

3 to 5 today? Damn no can do.
