NorCal Meet and Greet Saturday November 17th!

Hey NorCal folks, I think we ought to have another meet and greet before the winter weather sets in. A chance to put some faces to some of the new names on this forum!
Our last meet and greets were in San Hoe, Dublin and Oakland. Given the wide area from which our members reside, it's going to be a haul for some of us regardless, so, I'm suggesting a Saturday PM meet so that we don't have to fight traffic to get to a spot after work

MASSIVE UPDATE 11-5-12

The Day:

Saturday, November 17th, from noon till whenever

The Place:

Bay Area Metal Fabrication
250 W. Channel Rd, Unit G (at the back of the building)
Benicia, CA, 95410

There is a narrow driveway that goes along the right-side of the building that takes you to the back.




OK Dokie everyone It's official! We are changing this up to be a BBQ Turkey Pre-Thanksgiving TW Thanksgiving Potluck thingamadoodlethingy! Let's do this up right and show the rest of TW that the NorCal bunch is the best on TW!!!!

We have done potlucks for mod day and they have been huge successes, everyone left with a full tummy

Here what we're doin:

Jerry is gonna do up 30lbs of turkey and we need all of YOU to bring the rest of the goodies. Now who doesn't like deep-fried turkey eh???

Here's what we need:

Commit to bring something to add to the feast including side dishes, plates, plastic eating ultensils (no sporks please ), paper towels, snacky-snack stuff (I'll mention it before someone else does: King Rolls), sodas and BYOB to share, any and all ideas welcome so chime in. Got some killer recipe from yo granny for some bitchin grub? Bring it on down! Think....hmmmmm what goes good with turkey in November???? Figure some desserts would be nice too.

Also could be helpful:

Some folding tables, bring your folding chairs, a football or a frisbee.

Anyone have some sterno heating trays?

Oh, and one more thing, Jerry is proving the turkey and the cooking skills and hosting, we ask a small donation from everyone to be made to the tip skull to offset his costs and show our appreciation!

Count me in! I need to look at some Tacos in person and meet some of you guys!

 

If we so the weekend of the 17th ill be able to make it there but depending on how much I drink I might not make it back.lol

 

OK, one vote for the 17th, of course Felipe, I'm assuming you will drink responsibly

 

I'm kinda partial to the 17th myself, IDK, maybe too many of us will have turkey hangovers on the 24th

 

True that.. anything before the crazy holiday diving!

 

I wanted to give you northern guys a meet , Fairfield is a pretty easy run

 

LOL you're still putting your rig back together aren't you?

 

Thank god there are no floating malls you could fly to

 

there's a BWW right off 80 in town... and I think any of these dates are looking good at the moment

 

We need a place to get some food with a big parking lot, I was thinkin Texas BBQ but I don't know how big their parking lot is

 

I'd be down for the 10th or 17th. Gonna be gone for thanksgiving the 24th

 

I'd be down for either the 10th or the 17th. Learning from a previous meet and greet mistake, I checked for any MMA fights either of those dates and it looks like there is one on the 10th. That would definitely rule out BWW, as we learned the hard way they have a 3+ hour wait on fight nights.

 

Another couple of votes for the 17th

 

I'll go for the 17th.

 

I'm gonna let folks chime in when they home from work tonite to call it but at this point I'm really liking the 17th. Say 3-330pm, gives us a hour to shoot the BS before heading inside for grub

 

I wanna hear for you Sonoma guys, I'm pickin Fairfield partly to give you guys an easy run to get to
