gregzz4 will become famous soon enough
Default GVRD Jan/Feb social meet city preferences

It's not easy to accommodate everyone, no matter where/when it's suggested to meet. Hopefully this will help narrow down a favorable location this time.

When you vote for your favorite locale, please include a reply with a pub/restaurant suggestion as I'll use these in the next poll.

Once we narrow down a region for the next meet I'll start another poll for the location, date and time.

Poll is multiple choice so feel free to select whatever city/day/start times suit you.
If your region is not available pick the one closest to you.

I still think it might be nice to do a tank tour, once a month or every second month meet at someones place and check out tanks etc.
Bring your own drinks and its less noisy as well.

Big Ridge Brewing Company Pub is great and has super food too as I recall. It seems most want the pub atmosphere and this is one pub I know is good.
Maybe Tom R will come out if we choose this location.

I wouldn't say never.

For 3 or 4 years I set up a monthly get together in Surrey. At first we would get out 15 - 25 committed REEFERS and we used a restaurant call the Fresgo Inn. www.fresgorestaurant.com 10102 King George Hwy, Surrey 604-588-0878

I would call ahead and the manager would reserve us an area near the back of the restaurant where we were able to rearrange the tables into one or two long tables, so everyone was at one table. As you can see from their menu posted on their web site the prices were very good and the selection was even better.
As time goes on these things run there course so as the number of attendees decreased we moved to Big Ridge Pub where the maximum table size was 10, we met there for years where it go down to the same 4 or 5 attendees always the same guys.

In the past we also had difficulty setting dates so realizing that you can not accommodate everyone we set our date as the last Thursday of every month that way we always new to plan on that date well in advance.
