Lower Mainland meet?

[rishu_pepper]

thought I would edit this for you guys so it was easy to find the info (Elkhound)

Location:

Jimy Mac's (19935 96th Ave., Langley)

Date:

Sunday, December 16th

Time:

6pm







Seeing how the Island has their own Christmas meet, I thought it'd be fun to do something similar for us Lower Mainlanders. Just an informal gathering, perhaps at a restaurant or a pub? Just throwing it out there, would anybody be interested? We could even do Secret Santa or something to spice things up. :wink:

Would you be interested?

[BearSniper]

Ya I'd like to try to make it.

Actually meets have been previously organized at YA YA's in Horseshoe Bay.

Sadly, both times I've been working:o

I think they did one on the spring and one in the winter IIRC.

[lip_ripper00]

get togethers are always fun. Christmas is in full swing here, and it looks like Rudolf puked, so much red and green:-P. Unless it was a week night untill the new year...

[pitdog]

I"m in definitely.

[Gateholio]

Unless you guys come to Whistler, I'm out for anything in the winter. Too dam busy...:eek:

[rishu_pepper]

So far the responses look promising.

I understand that most people are super busy during Christmas time (I am as well). We could have it a week before/after the Christmas week (Dec 15-16 or Dec 29-30). I gather weekends are the usual possibilities? Personally I wouldn't mind a weeknight.

As for location, sorry Gatehouse but geographically I think we should pick a place that's relatively close for most people (Surrey? Coquitlam?). Any suggestions for good establishments? I know of a couple of nice sport bars in Coquitlam.

Let's have more people sound in on this. The more the merrier!

[Sharkey]

Can't do it, but if there was one in the spring when the weather's better, it wouldn't take much to zip down. The Coquihalla is rather unforgiving at this time of year. :-|

[lip_ripper00]

Dec 15 is last day for deer here.....:wink:

[browningboy]

If some people want to have a smaller meet in the valley, I'm up for it, but needs to be a weekend evening as the kids wouldn't enjoy the bar like me!:tongue:
Have a couple meets, the valley guys in Langley and Island and Vancouver in horseshoe bay??
Just a thought.

[Barracuda]

that sounds like a pretty good idea

[Gateholio]

Well, I didn't expect a Whistler meet, but if anyone is heading up here, let me knwo, maybe they could transport some powder for me!:smile:

[rishu_pepper]

Looks like we have a lot of "maybe's". I understand it's difficult to get time off during the holiday season, so unless we get more response in the next couple days or so, we'll have to wait until the spring meet. What say you, HBC? :biggrin:

[Mr. Dean]

Nope. Just to dang busy over the holidaze..... I'm booked SOLID w/ squirrel hunters. :biggrin:

sure thing, like to meet some people from the site

[Will]

maybe they could transport some powder for me!:smile:
I hope your talking about Gun powder ? :lol::lol:

[derek p]

Hey Gatehouse,

what do you have in mind, I will probably be headed up on the weekend, it would be no problem to pass it along to BCBOY if this works for you let me know.

Derek

[rishu_pepper]

You know what, we already have 10 (including myself) voting "yes", so why don't we give it the green light? It won't be a huge party by all means, but just a nice easy-going time for a dozen hunters to get together.

Now comes the next questions, where and when? Can anyone chime in with some suggestions of where to go? (you don't even have to be the one coming! :lol:) As for when, we're probably gonna do this either on the 15-16 or 22-23 weekend. (I know some of you aren't down with the 15th since it's the last day of the season :biggrin:)

For those who voted yes, please post a reply which day you prefer, and a suggestion or two on location.

Cheers,
Brian

[Alex]

Nice! I'm in.

I just mooved to Van. and I'd like to meet some fellow hunters! Can I bring this years hunting pics? :grin:

Alex

[Scottish Warrior]

Depending on where I would come, Horseshoe Bay is a long damn hike from Maple Ridge.

[kishman]

If I'm not working I'm in for sure.

[rock]

I'm in leaning towards the 16th of the month if possible, hope somebody can suggest a place to meet.

[rishu_pepper]

Now we're talking! Responses have been positive and we have 15 "yes", so we're definitely a go.

Location-wise, I have a suggestion or two.

Foggy Dew Irish Pub at Coquitlam. Good vibes
Shark's Club at Langley (I haven't been there)

Either location should been relatively close for most people. What do you think?

As for a date, we have to decide pretty soon to get this going. I think we can scrap the 15th since some may be out for last day of the season (me included :biggrin:), so why don't we say the 16th?

And for activities, do we want to do a secret Santa, in light of the Christmas season?

Alex, you are more than welcome to bring pictures! In fact, I urge all participants to bring something to share about their hunting experience this season and past. Oh, and if you have the HBC cap, wear it! :biggrin:

[pitdog]

Any of the days are good for me, just need the day and place.

[LOC]

If we're looking at the 16th, the Sharks Club works great :) any weekday the Dew is better.

[rishu_pepper]

If we're looking at the 16th, the Sharks Club works great :) any weekday the Dew is better.

Any reason why that is? I'm not a frequenter of the Dew, and never been to the Shark's club.

So far, the 16th looks good. I think we'll confirm it as our night, any objections?

P.S. Would the mods please sticky this thread? Thanks.

[mainland hunter]

How bout Jimmy mac's in langley not far from sharks and not so much of a club as sharks is

[rishu_pepper]

How bout Jimmy mac's in langley not far from sharks and not so much of a club as sharks is

So I checked out the Jimy Mac's site, it looks really good! Probably more appropriate than Shark's since we're there to chat it up, not watch the ball game.

Any other suggestion? Otherwise we'll narrow it down.

[Barracuda]

somewhere quiet would be nice . the only place i know of would be the shake&shingle in ruskin but i thnk that might be a little to far away for most. as long as it isnt surrey( I would prefer my vehicle be there when i come back to it) and where ever we go has plenty of parking for trucks i am happy.

just looked at Jimy Mac's and it does look nice not to mention the food sounds good & prices are reasonable

Langley is home, and I work in Burnaby - just what's close is all. I'd vote for Jimmy Mac's over the Shark Club.

[rishu_pepper]

Seems like most people are favouring Jimy Mac's over the Shark/Dew. I say we confirm this deal as it is.

Location:

Jimy Mac's (19935 96th Ave., Langley)

Date:

Sunday, December 16th

Time:

TBA (how does 7pm sound to everyone?)

[Barracuda]

I wonder if the hounds would like to come :-P

[big buck]

That sound great im in.

[big buck]

I would perfer Jimmy Macs.

[rishu_pepper]

I must say the turnout is a pleasant surprise, despite the relatively short notice. Give yourselves a hand, HBC LMer's.:biggrin:

Everyone seems to be good for Jimy Mac's, so the location is settled, same goes for the date, everyone is for the 16th.

Jimy Mac's: http://www.jimymacspub.com/Jimy%20Mac%27s.html

So, 7pm okay for everyone? Right now we have 16 people who voted yes, we'll see how the final numbers add up and I'll go ahead and make the reservation in a couple days. How's that sound?

[Steeleco]

Stickied till the meeting for ease of finding!!
I'm only blocks from there. This might be doable after all??

[Elkhound]

I put the location and info on the first post for easier finding

Elkhound, thanks for adding the information on the first post, I thought about it.

Being mods you guys have to come out too, keep us in check IRL! :biggrin: Modding sure is a big job.

And when did this thread suddenly turn into a dirty joke? :tongue:

[newhunterette]

oh good grief Elkhound - you know i would never touch his nether regions OMGoodness - been a while since you made me blush you mean mean mean man

I meant do I dare come to the meet at Jimmy Macs - oh good gracious above


MB-you have a very nice Hawaiian holiday - should have let me knw ya was going I could give ya hula lessons before u headed off into the sunset



Mr dean - keep spankin me baby - I been bad according to Elkhound


(heheheh shhhhhhh No Peter I promise I really am behaving Honest hehehehehehe) - halo is all shiny and all dents are fixed

[Veener5.0]

Ya Coqtrophys and myself are in

[rishu_pepper]

Dirty jokes and spankings aside :razz:, I'm gonna give Jimy Mac's a call in a couple days to make the reservations. With 18 already confirmed, I'd like to ask those who voted "maybe" whether they are gonna show up or not; that way, I'll have a better sense of how many people to book for. Post a reply or PM please ASAP, if you voted "maybe", and as for the "yes", I'm just gonna go ahead and assume everyone are good to show on the 16th.

[lip_ripper00]

Sunday evening is fine. I can make that. I have 2 Christmas disfunctions Fri and Sat in town, by Sunday it will be good to talk "normal people":biggrin:

:lol::biggrin:

But yeah this is totally a go, date/time/location all confirmed (refer to first post).

Do we wanna do a game meat/sausages swap or something? I got tons of venison I ain't gonna finish in a while. I figure we might wanna do some kind of activity instead of only eating and chatting, makes the night more fun :D

[kishman]

I get off work at 7 so I'll be an hour or so late, but I'll be there!!:mrgreen:

[biaggi3]

Im in, like most of you know I want to meet you guys (and gals) get to know other hunters...just dont laugh too much ok about 8yrs with no filled tag! Just need a firm location and time...is it at:
Jimy Mac's (19935 96th Ave., Langley), Sunday 16th, 7.00PM still?, please advise, thanks and Im in.

[Dirty]

Do forum rules and guidelines still apply at meet and greets?:tongue:

Heh good question (for the mods), if Dave shows up then we'll have to be on our bestest behaviour :p

biaggi, the location/time/date is correct and confirmed. See you there, and no, we won't laugh at you, a friendly ribbing isn't out of the question though...? :biggrin:

[Freshtracks]

Ok, I'm going to try and swing this into the schedule. Need to rib biaggi anyhow. :tongue:

[Elkhound]

Bring the banjo :biggrin:

[Mr. Dean]

Ok, I'm going to try and swing this into the schedule. Need to rib biaggi anyhow. :tongue:

biaggi ribs...... Sounds like a menue offering. :mrgreen:

you should be ok at this one, I don't think Marc can make it, however David is going to be their....:mrgreen:

[greybark]

:wink: Yuppers , Will be there !!!!!!!

[cwocarsten]

I' be willing to head in to Langley from Chwk for a meet and greet. The 16th sounds good.

[bsa30-06]

I'll do my best to be there, these events are always alot of fun , and somebody will have to keep elkhound in line.If we could get BCLongshot to show up we could really turn this into a party.

[Kechika]

Mr Amazing may make a special apperance

[JoshLedoux]

I think i can be there for that I won't even have to slink out the back door of the shop

[Wild one]

I will have to come out and meet some of you guys since I can walk agian

[rishu_pepper]

The "yes" counts at 20 people right now. I will make reservations tomorrow for 25 people, in case some of the "maybe's" show up. How does that sound?

[Mr. Dean]

I wouldn't put this off much longer....

[Alex]

So should we do a secret santa or would it be too much trouble?

Alex

[Mr. Dean]

I vote we burn Santa for this one.


Or better yet; we send him the bill.

[rishu_pepper]

I just called Jimy Mac's, and we might have a problem... they aren't taking reservations for Sunday night... the guy said if we come in about an hour earlier (6pm) we should be alright. What do you guys think? Stick with the plan or move locations?

[Mr. Dean]

Jimmy's has a great feel, they make you feel at home there. Any time I get over, I always leave flat broke, and then some. :roll:

But if they can't accomodate a smallish group and keep everyone more or less together, well..... But I'm thinking that this may be tough to get at any of the other choices either - There's lots of other groups trying to find the same thing.

Another neat place is the Fox and Hound in Aldergrove. OR... We could just crash Elkhound's place. :twisted:

He's been yapping about having a few over for quite some time. :rolleyes:
And he has a HUGE backyard! (insider jk.)


Might be best to just start phoning around and find who will do what.

[rishu_pepper]

Should we scrap the idea of Jimy Mac's then? Or can we get a few people to get there early and save some seats? (I can't, church stuff morning-afternoon)

I have no knowledge of places across the Port Mann, so I'll leave you guys to decide. If Elkhound is cool enough to open up his place I'm sure none of us would mind. Just bring your own food ;)

[Mr. Dean]

If people can make it for 6PM, I'm good. The place isn't short of patrons. If he said be there by 6, I'm sure he meant it.

But I'm fairly certain he won't like 5 holding seats for 25....

[rishu_pepper]

What if we all try to make it at 6pm then? If everyone's there by then, we'll probably get our seats. Does anybody object to moving this up one hour? Otherwise we shall make it official.

[Wild one]

6 works for me

[LOC]

6's good. :)

[rishu_pepper]

So it looks like 6pm is okay for most people, if not all. We are going to make this official then, 6pm start time.

I will edit the first post.

[Barracuda]

6 works for me

[Mr. Dean]

rishu;

How many conformations ya got for the new time?

[pmj]

Checked Out Jim Macs: Happened to be in the neighbourhood for other business. NOTE: They do not accept debit cards, they have a interac machine (with a service charge) so you can take out cash. The right side of the pub has a couple of good sections that would be good for our group. The rooms to the left have loud tvs for sports fans, not good for talking. We have other things on the go Sunday so Marianne and I are a maybe.

[rishu_pepper]

People who PMed or replied confirming 6pm come to about 12-15 (I lost count)? If the rest show up we should have at least 20 by 7pm.

Everyone, try to be there on time so you can get a good seat!

[Steeleco]

I'm in for 6 (or is that pints!!!)

[rishu_pepper]

I just got back from Jimy Mac's (some of the guys are still there). We had a blast! The atmosphere is great there, and I think I can safely say that we all had a great time there tonight. We even got presents! Ali, would you mind posting pictures afterwards? It was a grand old time, the turn-out was much better than expected; those who showed up: thank you so much for being there, and those who didn't, well, you missed a fun night :-P

Let's do this again some time soon, and have a merry Christmas to y'all!

Cheers,

Back when I was organizing events in rez in UBC, those took a lot more effort (and often with less turnout :roll:). The secret is nag, nag, and nag some more until everyone knows there's an event. :lol: Glad you guys had fun, I sure did!

This deal was a blast!
I think at the peak of it, there were ~30 people.

I really like these kinds of things; meeting new people and such. I should start taking notes though - It's tough sitting here and trying to remeber all the faces that went w/ the names now! Good excuse to do it again....

I learned one thing, and that there's a few willing to try out Rishu's Fu Chow Puppy.

Kudos' to the staff also. They did a fine job keeping everybody happy.
