PNW Dopers/UnaBoarders....FreUnaBoDopeFest?

I submit for your approval the following idea for a gathering. Originally suggested by Saltire and heartily endorsed by the Official PNW Gathering Committee. (That would be me…:wink: )

The Fremont Fair…including a visit to the Troll by special request.

The Fremont Fair

Anyone up for a get-together on Saturday June 21st?

Hmm… looks interesting. But I have NO idea where Fremont is.

Besides, it’s the last day of Awana… Awards Night, yay! :slight_smile:

(well, it’s called an Awards Night… technically, it’s more like an afternoon from 4-ish to 6:30-ish)

Sorry to miss out, though.

I’m up for it!

I wish I could join you! Looks like tons of fun and I know it would be fun to have a fest with Scotticher.

That’s Rico’s b’day too, and I think it would be great fun to spend it with y’all

I sure hope there will be pictures :smiley:

Have fun everyone!

So far we have PT and me, and a pass by Flami and cadolphin, who will be sorely missed.

You may consider this a Monday morn bump for our weekday user’s consideration…

Have a good day!

Dang, I gonna miss this one too! Eldest daughter has a soccer tourney in Ore that weekend and her little sisters dance school is having the recital that weekend, she’s in all four shows. (where’s the proud parent smilie) :smiley:

VP

Count me and KKBattousai in. :slight_smile:

Yes… if there’s pictures up after this get-together… I’d like to see them too!

If it weren’t for Awana, I’d probably join you… even though I have no idea how I’d get to Fremont… wherever THAT is. I’ll spare a thought for you while the kids do their thing for everyone. (singing, awards, message… yup, I know how it goes after three years – almost – of it)

I am 2 for 2 Scotticher… I was there a week earlier last year…
I will be in Washington the week after this year…

I am so consistent it hurts…

I am planning on hitting the Portland Dope in Aug tho

Darn. I sure would like to be there, mon Cheri. Alas, 'tis not to be this time. I hope you all have fun up there, and raise a toast to me. I may be hosting my very own AlamoDopefest here during that time.

Oops. There went the cat out of the bag again. Make that two. Heather? Sir Wilbur? Get back here…

Well, I’m off to start the thread inviting everyone to my Alamo City. Ok, ok, it’s not my AC, but you know what I mean. :stuck_out_tongue:
:::major hugs to one and all, 'specially Ms Scotti:::

Erm…

I’m actually going to be IN the Fremont Solstice Parade, so I probably can’t make it to a gathering, but if y’all want to see me in full belly-dancing regalia, my belly dancing troupe will be the ones wearing white and green. (I don’t know if there are multiple groups of belly dancers in the parade.)

Flam hon, all you have to do is bus to B’ham and I’d take you. Next time, I hope. But Awana is such a wonderful thing…you’ll do best to join your kids.

VenusProbe Of course, your kids come first. But I hope you can join us in the fall, when we are planning an Underground Tour/dinner after Nymysys and her wonderful husband move here.

Krisfer the Cat…Wow, we have SUCH bad timing! Please do me a favor and let me KNOW when you are going to be here next time? We can arrange things around YOU instead of vice versa!

MsWhatsit…[sub]Scotti speaks severely to MsWhatsit[/sub] Listen, darling…being IN the parade does NOT prevent you from joining us later, now DOES it? Well if it does, we will still be cheering from the sidelines as you prance by. Count on it!!! :smiley:

We still have to figure out the logistics of this gathering, but once we know who all is coming, we can do that. I expect we will have dinner or lunch or something after the parade, depending on what everyone wants. It turns out that my sister has a family gathering going on that day in Edmonds, but if she isn’t going to let me know in a timely manner, I can’t be expected to BE there.

We have to visit the troll, too, but I think it is in the general area of the parade and it’ll all work out.

So, at this point we have PT, KK, and AudsDarling. And me.

Sounds good so far, but everyone is welcome…where are the rest of you PNW Dopers?

The weather’s FINE! Jump in!

May we bring our kids?

No problem if not, just want to make plans.

Sorry, Cervaise and I will be out of town that weekend. But y’all have a great time!

What state/province is this in?

I’m quite new to these boards, but am definitely interested in attending- I assume more detailed plans will be fleshed out later?
P.S.- the Troll is very easy to find since it is directly underneath the GWM Bridge where it lands above Fremont.

Seattle, Washington

PNW = Pacific Northwest

I’m probably going to be in BC that weekend, if I’m not, I’ll be there.

Can no do, I’m afraid. Some of my family is FINALLY getting together that day. I’ve got cousins coming that I haven’t seen for about ten years.

I would have liked to meet you all and see Scotti again, but I’ll have to wait 'til next time. Hopefully Flam can make the next one too!

Hey, MsWhatsit, was your troupe just up here for the Hyack parade in New Westminster? I seem to remember green and white belly dancers. Kid, the Younger was in it with Cadets.

What, there’s a Portland Dopefest in August?

Can someone link the details for me, since the hamsters are hating me?

Thanks!
