ChooseFI Seattle August meetup - 1pm at Gas Works Park on August 25th at 1pm. Come join us to meet like minded folks! Feel free to bring a sharable snack and a comfy chair or blanket. Children and pets are welcome!   We'll be towards the back of the park, near the concrete sculpture tunnel thing that you can walk through.

Thanks Minnie, GS, for the cross-posts! I won't be able to make the 25th meetup, but I've put the GCC meetup on my calendar.

Looks like I'm a week late haha. How often do y'all meet up? What's the attendance like?

It's usually somewhere between a month and every couple of months from my experience, and usually half a dozen to a dozen people show up.

That said, I'm up for meeting this month, is anyone else?

I propose Sunday, Sept. 23rd @ 1pm in Green Lake Park (7201 East Green Lake Dr N, Seattle, WA 98115). If the weather isn't too bad, we can meet outside, otherwise we can meet inside the community center.

PTF since we're moving to the area soon. We won't make the next meet up, but potentially the one after.

I'm new to the forums and pretty new to the Seattle area. I can't do the proposed Sept 23rd date but I'd like to meetup, I'll keep my eye out for future dates.

@Daisy, not anything that I know of, but if you want to throw something out there for one of the days you're in town I'd be happy to join in if I'm able (as I'm sure others would be too)

+1. I can't make the September meetup, but I should be available in October. Always nice to meet more MMM'ers!

Is the meeting today still on? If so, where exactly are we meeting (Greenlake's pretty big...)?

We'll probably be a bit late, but if it's happening, we'll definitely show up at least!

Yep it's still happening. I haven't gotten there yet so no spot picked out yet. Tentatively, meet near the community center entrance and then we'll figure it from there

Sounds good.

I arrive on Saturday, October 6th at night. I suppose for those working types, meeting on Sunday, October 7th may be best? How about Sunday night? I don't know the area, so pick a place. I will be staying around the Harrison Ridge Greenbelt, but can probably meet anywhere. I will be visiting a friend that works at Microsoft during the week...another possible area.

If you'd like to meet during the week that would be fine too.

Hello!  Is anyone doing this Seattle meetup??  My husband and I are new to the moustachian philosophy (and Frugalwoods!), so we would love to meet up with other peeps!

There's a place not too far from you called Chuck's Hop Shop that's a casual place to meet. Do you want to try for Sunday around 6 or 6:30, or try a week day?

I just arrived in Seattle. Sunday at 6 or so at Chucks Hop Shop sounds great! I saw it is a mile from where I am staying. Who else is in?

Hi I work in Bellevue area and currently live in Bothell/Mill Creek area until the summer. Would love to meet up with others. I have read for a while on the app but not posted much on the forums.

Anyone near the Lynnwood area? My wife and I just moved here and it'd be great to meet up with other Mustachians!
I am a former teacher who accumulated a bunch of real estate, retired at 29, spent some time traveling the world full time and am now settled with three kids.

We've been MIA for a bit (we had a kid and another one is one the way!) but I thought I'd check in to see when the next get-together is.  It looks like we missed the October one but how's November 3rd or 17th for everyone? 

And welcome (back?) arebelspy and family!

We could do either the 3rd or the 17th. What time of day are meetups generally? With kids, I'd prefer morning or mid afternoon, but understand that may not work for the group.

I am off 164th on the way to Mill Creek but I consider it close to Lynnwood! I haven't posted much on the forums but followed the articles for years now.

Either date works for us, with a slight preference for the 17th. :)

Any venue suggestions? Should we do Third Place Books in Lake Forest Park again?

Third Place Books would work for me (especially if the weather turns out to be less than good).

To get a date on the books so people can plan, how about the 17th at Third Place LFP?  Maybe 1pm-4pm (or whenever people feel like wrapping up)?

We'll likely be there closer to 2pm, or one of us will stay home with our toddler and the other will be on time. Regardless, we're looking forward to catching up with or meeting you all.
