Any one interested in meeting up before the weather goes south?
Would be nice to chat with people who aren't burning oil money like it's going out of style.

I think there're about 7-10 edmontonians on this forum who posted at least once, much more readers, I guess.

I'm in Edmonton too. Let's make this happen :) There is some calgarians looking to do a meetup too. Maybe a half way point? Can discuss the challenges of having a moustache in this spendy province.

Hey, anyone ever had a meetup in Edmonton yet? I looked at the mustache map, and there seems to be a handful of us here, but the Edmonton meetup threads are all old posts

Cool! What about sometime during the week of August 8? Usually I'd suggest a coffee shop or pub, but a library or park could also work if people don't want to buy a drink.

Works for me. I have zero firm plans at this time- will still be in vacation mode then. I'll be living in Millwoods, but will have access to a car so which park doesn't really matter. It's been a very long time since I've been to parks there so should have a very clear meeting point. Though presumably everyone has a cell so we could exchange numbers. I'd rather not a pub or any really loud place but doesn't matter that much to me. Will be weather dependent.

Works for me too. I like the park idea assuming the weather is nice.

Park it is! I'm mostly familiar with Hawrelak and Kinsmen. Would either of those work?

I think I'd prefer Hawrelak. Is that the one with the big stage and is it still there? We could meet there unless there is another obvious location someone who was been there within 15 years wants to suggest. =)
Backup location in case of weather? I'm fine with coffee shops.

Mattzlaff: You should join us for our meetup.

Okay, let's meet at Hawrelak Park. I'm not sure if there is a big stage because I haven't been there in a long time. What day and time should we meet? I work 9-5 during weekdays so I won't be able to meet during those times.

Looks like it, I actually haven't been to that part of the park, but its listed on the city website with a map.  http://www.edmonton.ca/attractions_events/heritage-amphitheatre.aspx


I also work 9-5ish, maybe 7pm on a weekday or a Saturday during the day?

Are we still on to meetup sometime next week? What day works best for everyone? I think a weekday at around 6:30 works best for me.

I'm free at that time any weekday except for next Friday.
And I'd prefer Hawerlak (sp) if I didn't say that already.

Alright, Wednesday, 6:30 pm, Hawrelak park, meet at the stage!

Also, since it might be raining, the Good earth coffeehouse is in that area, would that be a decent backup location for everyone?

Just joined the forum today and this is my first post! Can I still come? :)

I've never been to the stage in the park. I'm assuming it's pretty obvious?

Yes, of course. I'm not 100% sure I will make it myself (not feeling well) but the more the merrier.
The stage I'm referring to:

Cool!
Let's do it. I unfortunately was quite sick and had to miss the last one. But I've been wanting to try again.

Do you prefer a weekday evening or weekend? Currently I am busy this and next Saturday evening but free otherwise.
I'm in the Millwoods area but have a car so can get wherever. What area works for you?

Weeknights are generally good for me (but I'm away most of next week). Thanks for replying - I'll see future replies sooner now that I've enabled the notifier (duh!). :)

I'm good with south Edmonton (I unmustachianly commute to Leduc) or west.
