ok guys, going to set up two threads here, this one is:

"who wants to do a get together, and where?"

I'd be up for a dinner to meet with the fellow board members that I have and haven't met as yet.

Anywhere in the Hwy #401 and/or Hwy #416 locations would be fine with me.

Kingston Micro Brew?

Keystorm Pub?

I'd vote for the Kingston Micro Brew in Kingston, in Brockville I'd go with the Issac Brock or Bud's on the Bay they provide a better all round value that the Keystorm.

the micro brew works, or even something like lone star (kingston)?


now, any ideas on when? would have to be a weekend for me.

I'd like a weekend too unless someone wants to put up with my snoring for the night......

The sooner the better in IMHO.

Maybe would could make a day of it and visit Cliff at Limestone, Northern Tech and of course we'd probably see Big Jim at the dinner itself. maybe the people at POW would be interested in doing something also.

I'm open to anything as it's only a 1 hour drive for me.

Did they not just open a new East Side Marios in Brockville? That or Buds on the Bay. I agree the Keystorm pub is not the place. They are not exactly diver friendly as I know one dive club that actually boycotts them.

canuckdiver

ok, my vote would be for feb 8th, give people a chance to get things together.

whaddaya think?

John the owner of Buds is very diver friendly. The Eastside Mario's is too small ( not a regular size Mario's ) to hold an large dinner. Our local dive club does scuba film fest at Bud's every second Tuesday and they actually will keep the kitchen open beyond 9pm to take our food orders. If Brockville is where we can argree to hold the dinner, Bud's is the best place for it.

As for the Keystorm, personally their food and services isn't that great whether your a diver or not!

brockville would be fine for me, but would kingston not be a little better for those coming from the toronto area? (closer?)


just a thought..

Sounds good. We just need to nail down a place and time now! As mentioned I think that Kingston Micro Pub or Bud's in Brockville would be a good place to start.

Both locations are fine with me. You could be right and Kingston is still within the range of people coming from Ottawa also.

I'll go with the majority!

is my vote......Although the dates who knows.....Between my sons playoffs in hockey and me referreeing playoffs...long term planning (other then my trip to Barbados:D :) ;) ) is kinda out.....Kingston has some nice spots though......

Is Hubey C doing it at 24 Sussex?

Just dont let him tow a boat on the 416. LOL

Hey they deleted one about Buds on the Bay having great food and the one about the restaurant near the dive shop in Collins Bay with the Shark in the logo. That should have been safe as it did not actually use the store name of Northern Tech Diver but the food in the restaurant is good. Politics!

Excellent Choise. I just may have to come to Kingston for some good old fashion food. Let's get Marvinpa or the NTD guys to show pictures

Where everything is happening. Class is likely to be in the west-end. Pool "may be" there.

eagleray2003 - taking the instructor's course, so I'll know how to properly help those with handicaps.

Kingston sounds like the place to have this dinner since it is almost 1/2 way for our friends in Toronto and Ottawa. However, if we really want to get technical, I believe Napanee would be the 1/2 way point. I know they have a wonderful Mc Donalds there which would probably really love to put on a special dinner for us. maybe we can even get ole' Ronald to shown up!

Now, I thought I had posted some pretty bad humour stuff but yours is not even funny. We need the hamburglar to show up.

I vote for Tommy's in Collins Bay

Ontario Diver
February 3rd, 2003, 10:18 AM
OK!

Let me make an attempt!

Tommy's in Collins bay (That is the one beside Northern Tech. Right?)

and how about the 15th so's everyone can get there!


If that works for everyone, - I'll call them!

Butch103
February 3rd, 2003, 12:29 PM
That dat ejust won't work for me, but of course, please carry on without me. Unfortunately, it conflicts with the local Chamber of Commerce awards dinner, and as luck would have it, my wife is nominated for an award. And seeings how I don't sleep with any of you folks........You understand where I must be that evening.......;)

February 7th, 2003, 12:04 PM
ok, so how many people do we have??


and on a side note, if anybody is going to be in the area of trenton/belleville this weekend we could do an informal coffee/dinner/breakfast?

A little birdie has informed me that canuckdiver may not be able to make it as he was involved in an accident earlier in the week and as a result has a few cracked ribs, and is now without that vehicle.

Can someone actually confirm if canuckdiver will be there or not. It makes no sense making the trip if only two of us are going to be there then.

Jimmy B
February 15th, 2003, 09:47 AM
There's a dive in Rockport today, Some people will problerly make it to Tommy's afterwards. I thought Diverdude was going?

taz22

Maybe I lost count.

Are you gonna be there Jimmy?

I have to make plans pretty quick if I'm gonna go or not, if I gotta drive up there ( given what we pay for gas now ), I'd like to do a couple other things when I'm there.

Jimmy B
February 15th, 2003, 10:27 AM
Maybe, I know the Boys from NTD said they will be there around 4 PM

Sorry guys.... I just had a family issue pop up that I must take care of....

Can't make it out because of it.

I'll make the next one tho..

divedude
February 15th, 2003, 02:20 PM
I have to go to NTD's shop anyway, so I stop in and see if any one else is there.

divedude
February 15th, 2003, 08:32 PM
I was there......:D All by myself.
They do have good Hot Hambuger.
Dan & Tom from Northern Tech Diver's shop came and had coffee with me.
So I wasn't all alone :)
Mabe we can try again sometime.

canuckdiver
February 15th, 2003, 08:46 PM
sorry guys :(

haven't been getting on very much here, as soon as things settle down, will be back around.
Right now concentration is in short supply (heavy meds)

we will set up something soon, as well as hopefully meeting at the show next weekend

Butch103
February 16th, 2003, 07:27 AM

Canuckdiver, hope things are better for you soon.

Hopefully Sat coming up will work out better........
