7th Annual Shindig - Saturday January 30, 2010 start 5PM - Qube Visual

The annual RMNP Shindig party (with (TM) White Elephant) will be on Saturday January 30, 2010 starting at 5PM. The party is a great place for all forum participants to meet and share their experiences, gear and prints. We encourage all members to join us. If you are a new member we encourage you to join us for this fun annual event.

As usual we will be looking for the members to bring an item (food, beverage etc) and/or donation for the pizza, Subway and sodas that we provide. Also, if you might be able to bring some fold out tables and/or chairs we can really use them since table space winds up being a real problem at these parties. You can find the event page here. On the event page I am listing the attendees and what they are planning to bring. Also, this is where you can upload images for the annual slideshow.

Also, to the community at large I have arranged for a few vendors in town to give us some great door prizes but would like to invite the community to donate door prizes that we can raffle off to the group at large. This is our community and is a great opportunity to give back to the group. If you are interested in donating a door prize (can be a product or even a service) just shoot me an email.


Please respond to this thread and let us know if you will be attending this year.

Thanks.

RichieV and Rene

Glad to hear you've been able to get Qube again.
I plan to attend.

I'll be there with a print, homebrew and cookies

I'll bring a print and some money for pizza/drinks.

i'll be there with a donation for pizza and a print.

I will definitely be there with money and maybe a print.

Sweet! That's great that is at Qube again as it is a super venue. I will bring denero and maybe a print. Thanks again to our marvelous moderators for all that you do!

I'll bring some money... and maybe a print...

Ditto.

Count me in for Print, brew and dessert of some sort.

I'll be there; looking forward to it! I will bring alcoholic drinks, fattening food and a priceless print for the exchange. ---> (but not a photo of me.)

As a new member I'll be there with excess cash for pizza and stuff. But tell me more about the print exchange.

C'mon Nat, where's your spirit of adventure? Your photo was a hit!

I'll be there with a money contribution.

Count me in! I'm looking forward to the print exchange. I'll bring some guac and chips again (just for Brent).

Would love to go again but my son and grandson arrive that evening from the UK for 2 weeks vacation so given the choice the grandson wins!

I'll bring homebrew, a print for the exchange, and some baked good prepared by my wife. Oh, and my wife will be joining me too I guess.

I will bring some beer from my wife (beer sales lady), some money and a print.

I'm excited to be attending for the first time. I'll bring a print, pizza money, and whatever else I think of between now and then. Looking forward to it!

Just want to mention - If someone from outside the Denver area would like to attend the 'shindig' party and needs a place to stay shoot me an email and we will see if we can find you a place to stay. We want to try to include as many of you as possible to enjoy the annual party.

In the first post it states...

"be on Saturday January 30, 2010 starting at 5PM. We havent set an exact time yet."

Confused. Is it at 5pm or is that just a guess and an exact time hasn't been set?

I am planning on being there with beverage and cash as well as a print for exchange.

Odds are good Ill be there, Ill bring cash to assist.

Sorry I can't make will be working.

I should be able to attend. I'll bring a few bucks...

Count me in-it looks like dessert and beer are well covered. I'll bring an appetizer.

Yep, count me in also. I'll bring food or money,or beer and a print. I'm in Monument so any one want to car pool email zmoondawg@revnetworks.com. This has been a blast. Nat won't be the same without your pic! Edit: I have a six foot folding table I can bring.
John

Can't make it, that's my weekend to work! Maybe next year!

Sounds like fun!! I will bring $$ since everything else if pretty much covered.

Tim

Should be able to attend this year. Will bring a print, $$ and some veggies/dip.

I think my travel plans have changed so I will be attending this year and bringing drinks.

me will try to attend again this year, I reckon I will bring pizza donation

Hey Richie, I think I should be able to come along again this year, I'll bring pizza money!.

I should be able to make it and will bring beer and donate to pizza

I would really love to attend and meet everyone, but I will be working, unless I can get it off. If I can attend, i will bring $$.

pizza...beer...me in!

I will try my best to be there... in which case I will bring some $

I plan to be there. Will bring some $$. Thanks for organizing this guys!

I'll be there. Will bring some $$ and a print. Thanks for organizing this!

I will be there with a pot of chili.

I'd love to join, but it's a bit far to drive for a party. I'll go have a beer by myself at the Auld Dubliner

I will attend with a donation and a print.

We'll be sure to raise our glasses to you, Laurent. I have fond memories of my visit to the Auld Dubliner, the local stout I was drinking, and my long (if frequently interrupted) conversation with the bar keep about "Americans." He was busy filling pints, yet interested enough to come back time and time again to say, "So where were we?"

Got my plane ticket!! very excited to see everyone again. Planning a short day trip to Summit Co. for snow shots on Saturday morning, then perhaps RMNP on Sunday for ice bubble shots. Anyone wanna go?

Oh ya, I'll be there...with cash and a print.

I will bring some beer.

If everyone doesn't mind, I'd like to bring two friends who are very interested in our community, both of them professional photographers from Estes Park: James Frank and Jared Gricoskie. We'll bring some extra cash and probably some drinks. You can check out their websites here: http://jamesfrank.com/ & http://www.ywguiding.com/.

I just heard that James can't make it so it will be just Jared and myself with cash.

Erik,
I've met James before and he is a real nice guy...Can't wait to see him and meet Jared.

Jody,

You need to call in sick!!!!!!

It looks like I'll be able to make it this year too! I'll be able to contribute some cash for the food.

Craig

anyone want me to bring some hard liquor?

I'll be there and bring some cookies and cash.

I should be there. I will bring some drink and treat.

I know for a while it was questionable if we would be able to have the event at Qube. So thanks to Qube ahead of time, and while we are always good tenants of the space during the shindig we should even be more respectful this year, especially with food and drink.

Oh ya, I'll be there...with cash and a print.

Hope it's not too late to add my name to the list? Will bring some cash and a print also.

I really wish I could make it but will be stuck in the flatlands of The Great Prairie State of Illinois. Hope you'all have fun. Thanks. Joe.

Count me in! Will bring $ for Pizza. Thanks to you dudes for putting this together and a special thanks to Brent for getting us into Qube visual once again.

Jim

Looks like I'll be able to attend afterall (if not too late). My first shindig! Can't wait to meet more of you. I'll bring $$ for pizza and will bring either dessert or more beverages.

Jared - Looking forward to having you there. No problem with the late RSVP.

RichieV

Thought I'd be safe and post this in this thread too:


Hello all! Just a couple quick notes regarding the Shindig on Saturday night.

As for parking, Qube's front lot, and especially the south lot will be wide open for everyone. Please DO NOT park in the lot north of our building, next to the BARK! Doggie Daycare!! During their open hours (til 6pm I believe), they will have cars towed! Sorry about that! Also, please don't keep any valuables in your cars just as a safety precaution. We only had a problem once several years ago, and I don't want a repeat! Either leave it at home, or feel free to bring them inside with you, I have places to store stuff.

Rich and I are going to bring several large, empty coolers to hold drinks, but from past experience, those fill up FAST! If anyone has one or two they could bring, that would help! Maybe a small bag of ice too if you do bring one.

That's it for now. Really looking forward to seeing everyone Saturday!

Have fun tonight y'all
