All,

Here is the info (Yes I finally made a decision).


The date is going to be 10/28 (so Jennifer can join us). I'm traveling the next couple of days, but I will contact "On the Boarder" in Milpitas (the intersection of I 880 and I 237) to be sure they can handle us.

Sorry about all the confussion on this event. It's my first time trying this so forgive me.

Scott - we appreciate you getting this together, and if we complain, the duty would be ours next time :o

Anyway, I figured you were testing us, if we kept up, we'd pass for dive buddies!!! :cool1:

OK, I'll see you all on 10/28. On the border? The Mexican border or the Canadian border? Just kidding. Just want to double check, the "On the Border" restaurant is in the MaCarthy Ranch across from Walmart and in the same parking lot with "Banana Leaf" restaurant, correct?

When should we meet?

All,

Here is what I am thinking. Instead of "On The Border" there is a Dave and Busters at the Great Mall. I think that would be better as their would be more room, we can probably get a section to ourselves, and there are games so if folks want to hang around afterwords and play video games or pool that is avaliable as well. Also, assuming I get my DVDs from the Roatan trip by then we maybe able to play those so folks can see what the trips are like.

Thougts? Suggestions?

I will be there in spirit. :lmao: Milpitas is about 100-miles from my North Bay Home. :o If we can arrange a San Francisco (proper) local in the future, I'm onboard - these puns come too easy - since I live four miles from the Golden Gate Bridge.

Ciao,

What time are you thinking? I've got a class that evening (pool session) but can get over there after that (probably around 8:30 or so).

All,

I will be finalizing the stuff this weekend with D&B. Here is what I have so far:

* I will have a spot just for us at the viewpoint bar. I will put a couple of my of the SingleDivers.com t-shirts up in our area so folks can find us. I will see if I can leave a message with the doorman as to where in the club we will be located.
* Lets start around 7:00 pm. This will give folks in the North Bay a chance to get there.
* Your on your own for Drinks, but I will purchase at least some munchies (probably a finger food plate).
* I will show the videos around 8:00 pm. This will more then likely be on my laptop.

If your not familar with D&B they have all kinds of games (Pool, Video, etc).

If you could post a note or send me a PM that you are coming that would be great. If you know of any other dive clubs in the area that you want to spread the word at that would be great.

Scott

Hey Scott...that is great! If I knew you were buying munchies I'd of made arrangments to be there myself! Plus to see you in a SD t-shirt is worth the price of admission! LOL!!! :cool2:

Let me know the actual location and I'll get it posted in the first post! Sounds like it may be small but certainly fun!

CHALLENGE: Let's see if everyone coming can find at least one more diver or wanna be diver to come and join you all. I'll even give a t-shirt or slap strap to the person who recruits the most people to come to the party outside of the ones listed so far. So if Scott you or FishnChips get 2 or 3 more folks to join you that are already divers or really interested in learning to dive...then the person with the most attendees will win a prize!!!

So whoever lists this on CraigsList or yahoo or via message boards of local diveclubs etc. can maybe rake in the new attendees and be the first ever Happy Hour Winner! Woo!!! Hoo!!! -ww

:teeth: Just got back from Micronesia on Friday and now I'm headed to Oakland for business and plan to attend the happy hour, unless work gets really crazy Thursday. I should have a better idea by Wednesday, but right now I'm planning to see y'all there!
