Its also the best job in the CP Networking Group...we don't have any others!

Lets set this for next Thursday though and we can catch the tailend of the game (or meet earlier and watch the game as we meet?).

I'm good with before or after the game. Meeting for dinner beforehand could be fun.

fredr123 · 03-10-2008, 01:26 PM

So let's say Thursday March 13, 2008 at... 6:00 ish? I'm good for whenever.

Suggestions for a venue? Anyone know where all the good private parties are this week?

Even earlier if you can make it - faceoff at 5:00 pm?

Somewhere central? Flames Central? Eau Claire?

Slava · 03-11-2008, 03:53 PM

I'm still waiting for a PM from the secretary...

fredr123 · 03-12-2008, 08:25 AM

PMs sent to the usual suspects. If I missed you, I apologize. Details are as such:

You are cordially invited to partake in the next edition of the sorta monthly CP Networking Meeting.

Where: Flames Central
When: March 13, 2008 (Thursday)
Time: 5:00 pm or even earlier so you can see the start of the game

Bring business cards or other promotional materials. It's Slava's turn to give a presentation about his business so it should be interesting.

troutman · 03-12-2008, 08:46 AM

I plan to attend if attendance is good - 6 or more people?

I could offer a door prize again (an Evening With troutman III) - CGY vs. MIN - Sat Mar. 22

Slava · 03-12-2008, 09:24 AM

^^ My presentation will begin at 3pm sharp and conclude by the time the puck drops.

On a more serious note...I will be there, but will be late.

fredr123 · 03-12-2008, 09:56 AM

I'm a bit iffy about Thursday. I was in Lethbridge all day yesterday and I'll be in Siksika most of tomorrow. I'm at home with a sick kid today and it's totally kicking my billables in the balls. I'll make best efforts though.

FurnaceFace · 03-12-2008, 04:03 PM

I'm non committal as I've been invited to the last part of a conference tomorrow. If we're low in turn out then I would hit up the conference instead....

troutman · 03-12-2008, 04:23 PM

Does not look like we have critical mass.

fredr123 · 03-12-2008, 04:57 PM

Crap. So what am I going to use as an excuse to hurry back from the reserve?

Incinerator · 03-12-2008, 05:17 PM

I might be late, but I'll be there, any idea where our table might be?

Sick kid. Fool proof excuse. You can start off the day saying "oh man, I'm so tired, my kid was up most of the night sick" and play it up all day..

troutman · 03-13-2008, 08:46 AM

Another day maybe? Tonight does not seem very popular.

Slava · 03-13-2008, 01:57 PM

I guess that seems to be the consensus. Its busy for everyone I suppose...but kind of disappointing when we can't get together for an away game.

Incinerator · 03-13-2008, 06:02 PM

Ugh u bastids! i didnt check CP all day & i went all the way down to FC with no signs of anyone! Grrrr... guess u guys can count me out next time unless I know SOMEONE is gonna be there

Slava · 03-13-2008, 08:14 PM

^ Sorry about that Horace. I just kind of figured that no one was going!

Incinerator · 03-14-2008, 12:38 AM

but our secretary sent out PMs!

4X4 · 03-14-2008, 01:27 AM

PMs might be in order. I haven't checked this thread in a little while. I want to participate, but I'm a bit forgetful when it comes to checking on slower moving threads and events that happen every-so-often. Besides, you guys need me. I build houses. Without that, who is going to sell houses or sue the owners of houses or design the websites for the people that live in the houses? Heh..

Actually, I remember FurnaceFace pm'd awhile back about the power ring meeting. That's probably what got me out there last time. As this is a smaller group than, say, the softball team, we need to be a bit more pro-active with communication.
Nobody likes a small turnout (Incinerator?), so people aren't likely to commit unless they see others commit.
I'll commit to the next meeting, come hell or high water. Just name the time and place. I nominate Thursday, April 3rd. The Good Guys vs Minny. We can have a couple beers, talk a bit of business, and watch some hockey. Plus, being a 6pm start, going straight to the pub is a bit easier than a 7pm start.

As for venue, your suggestions are welcome.
