Mini-Con Northern California
« on: July 28, 2008, 09:54:55 AM »
I'll be in San Francisco September 26 through October 5.  Fr8train and me are meeting up sometime during that week.  If any NoCal Sly Brothers want to get together to hoist a few ales let us know and we'll try to set a date for a mini-con.

I don't have anything scheduled yet (work wise), so I likely will be around NorCal.......keep me posted.

I should be in the area as well.

Weekends are extremely tough for me (kid & soccer obligations). I'll be up for weekday stuff though.

I'll have a ton of weekday time when I'm there.  I know my way around so an East Bay location is certainly a possibility.  Just make it close to BART.

Personally, I have not problem with weekday gatherings as the weekends can be a bit hectic for me (wine business and all).

OK Red. What's the deal with BART? Will you not have a vehicle? ;D Matters not to me, I can make it anywhere that is convenient for everyone else. Now you've got me all psyched up about this!!!! O0 I'll bring some of Napa's finest vino (Sorry no Screaming Eagle).

When I leave Chicago I take a vacation from driving.  Reduces the stress.  We can work out a plan to accomodate everyone.   O0

Alright!!!!

Since we have less than 2 months to put this together I was hoping I could get an idea of how many SBG's will be in the SF Bay Area the last week of September. Specifically Sept. 29th - Oct 4th.

I'm pretty sure these SBG's will be here...

Myself
SimplyRed
Tyler
Schro
Dean Jones

What about...

Rob6?
Marz?

If I can get an idea of how many will be in the area for a get together, I'll take it upon myself to start scouting out locations for a gathering.

If business goes better than expected between now and then, I'd be inclined to fly out.
