I would like to do happy hour and brunch. What are the locations? Thanks

If no one has plans for Saturday afternoon the 29th, I'll probably be going to either Tony & Joes or Sequoia's on the waterfront; I think those are the names, i'll find out for sure.

They are side by side and walking distance to GTown as well. It's an incredible place to people watch, sit outside and drink, eat and be merry. All the boats pull up to the dock on the Potomac. If its a nice day it will sure to draw a huge crowd

Weather permitting of course. Anyone interested just post or email me. More details as it gets closer.

Edited to add the day/date

The numbers are not important for the first two events. However, for the third event, we MUST have a minimum of 20 people to get the group rate of $30 per person. I have 24 people, including myself, with four question marks. So, if I have you on the attendance list, and you are not coming, I MUST know by Monday so that I can fax back the contract. At that time, I will be coughing up a $100 deposit, so please don't hose me.

Looking forward to seeing all of you in a few weeks.

Tony,

thanks for organising this! I am actually +1 for the weekend. We will definitely be at the first two events, however, my friend is highly allergic to seafood, so we will, unfortunately, be skipping brunch.

For Friday night: does Staccato serve food, or should we grab dinner elsewhere before/after showing up there?

Thanks again for all your hard work on this.

techgirl Jun 8, 2002 7:44 pm

I'm a yes for Friday and Saturday, but a no for Sunday brunch.

If I have a sorority sister with me, it will be on Friday or Saturday night but she will likely show up later as she is doing dinners both nights over at the convention. I'm skipping out on those ($75 for alcohol-free hotel banquets? ech!) http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif

markbach Jun 8, 2002 8:51 pm

Tony, I am +1 for Saturday, but we don't be attending Sunday brunch. Thanks for setting all this up!

Well...if I only have time for one event, which should I attend? Hmmm?

Tony -

No for Friday (other plans)
Yes for Sat nite
Yes for Sunday brunch.

Any specific recommendations for museums (I know there are many - want to know "cant miss" exhibits) for Saturday afternoon?

That, my friend, is a question that only you can answer.

Dear Tony,

Just learned that Sunday 6/30 is a good friend of mine's birthday. Please remove me from Sunday brunch event, thanks. If I'm able to show up, I definitely will do.

Thanks for all the hardwork.
