I can try to put something together, but would like to hear back from some other members in the area first. I have finished my move and have a little more spare time now.

How about it Vancouver members? Do you want to get together for an evening?

Okay guys, sounds like at least the two of you are up for this. Why don't we wait until Sunday and see if anyone else replies and then we can pick a time and place next week.

Sorry for not responding this week. It was a pretty busy week for me. I am up for a GTG. Is there a central location that works for you and others? I live in Vancouver and work over on the west side of Vancouver, so just about anywhere in Vancouver will work for me. Not opposed to Burnaby either.

Suggestions on a meeting place? Starbucks, or any coffee house will work for me.

Let's do this coming Saturday evening since weekend nights work for Salem65. I don't have anything planned. If you like coffee, maybe we can meet up at the Waves coffee house on West Broadway and Oak Street area around 8pm?

Let me know if that works for you, Thomas. There is another fellow I can PM to see if he wants to come as well.

8pm Saturday June 28 at the Waves Coffee House on West Broadway at Spruce st.

That sounds good to me. Last time it was difficult to spot who was a TRF member and who wasn't. Does someone want to make a little sign to put on a table or something?
There are quite a few members in the Vancouver Community group that missed out on the last GTG. We should PM them all.

So it is confirmed then. I will do up a little sign and hopefully it will work out. In terms of PMing other members, I am not sure who to send the messages to. Do you?

In any event, I will be there. I'll send you a PM with my cell number so you can call/text if you are running late.

The Waves Coffee House on West Broadway and Spurce Street closes at 9pm on Saturday night. That may not be enough time for our GTG. Did you want to change the location to the Waves on Main Street and East 10th Avenue in Vancouver? If so, are you able to send out another PM?

Thanks in advance.

...The other location may be more suitable. .an hour I'm sure won't be enough time.
Any idea besides the few of us who posted here may be coming?...
.Maybe postpone for the following week...so Serdal can make it too.
Just a thought. ...!

I am not sure how many are showing up. All I have is you, Salem65 and myself. Maybe Salem65 can confirm as he sent out the PM's to the other members. In the event, it is only the three of us, I am not opposed to moving the date to next Saturday instead at the new location (Main and 10th).

Let's wait to see what Salem65 has to say.

I did send out a PM to all members, but no one was able to make it.
I do prefer the Main st. Waves location and am not opposed to moving it until next weekend. I will send out another PM with the updated date and location.
