SoCal Dopefest in October?

Boats. Rowing. “Crew,” if you must.

Head-of-the-Charles and Head-of-the-Schuylkill regattas are in the last two weeks in October.

Push the 'fest back and I’ll tell you some stories.

Man, I’d love to hear your stories! And that’s right: you went to the Hill School.

Need full roster of who is attending, and dates, or failing that, a more accurate date range. Please and thank you.

Does this mean you’re volunteering to organize?

Who is attending seems to depend a lot on dates. Maybe the first thing to nail down is approximately where. General vicinity, at least. In Los Angeles? Near it? Or some other city?

The Yard House was nice. Or Pasedena.

If you want me to, sure. Please note that my style of organizing is picking a time and a place, and telling everyone to be there.

My ideal location would be Pasadena. But I’d happily take a short drive, too.

Pasadena would be a good location for me as well, since I could take the Gold Line there. I liked the Yard House in Costa Mesa, but it’s much more difficult for me to get there.

I’ll third Pasadena… it’s close enough to me here in the SFV that I can get there easily but way nicer and not as dismally poor and depressing.

Since several folks have mentioned the Yard House, I’ll mention that Pasadena has a Yard House, too. (I’m not necessarily voting for that venue in particular with this post… just noting its existence. Pasadena has plenty of excellent options.)

Pasadena would be terrific!

I’m a wee bit north of San Diego and would totally be up for a drive to LA or adjacent area. My Saturdays are mostly free.

That’s usually the best method. Why did I think you were in Chicago?

Oktdoperfest? Count me in! It should be beer related, btw.

Are you going to be in the area MOL?

That was going to be my question. Because that would seal the deal on me going or not.

You’re going to stay away because you’re afraid of her right? :smiley:

Hehe. We can go with that. :wink:

Nah, I love MOL and would go for sure if she’s in town.

I would, of course, be in as always. I’ll be out of town in the middle of October, but should be fine otherwise. MOL would be incredible icing on the cake.
