BP Gathering Problems
Beer Events by FLASHPRO
Anyone who has been reading the non-beer forums probably knows that I'll be going to Ireland the night I get my passport, and won't be returning for 3 months. My employer has "asked" me to take this assignment and there's not much I can do about it. Unfortunately, the BP Gathering is set for the middle of September and I will not be able to make it! It also means I won't really be able to organize or provide anything as I was planning. The question now is are there enough people who are still interesting in meeting up? If not, the party can easily be moved to a future date. I'd like to make a decision soon. Sorry guys

Ha ha, too bad I've never golfed in my life. Well, I'm up for meeting anyone who wants to come on over, but I'm not counting on it!

In fact, I'm always looking for a good reason to return to the Emerald Isle, so why don't we just move the BeerPal Bash to Dublin! We could combine it with golf and save enough in greens fees to pay for the plane tickets! Lucky you, your company is picking up the tab!"
Sorry to be a pain in the ass, but S8n and I booked our summer vacations base on that gathering. It is real hard for us to change that as well. I know that E was working on the Saturday night bash. All we need is someone else to work the friday night bar hopping thing.

"The First Unofficial Beerpal Gathering, Soon To Be Followed By The Official Gathering" I like it. It has a ring. I think I could swing Friday night as of now. Of course, I'd be fine attending a second, follow up and "official" gathering at some later point in time too.

So, well, here is the current plan: Friday (9/16) - Victory, one or both Sly Fox locations Saturday (9/17) - Monks, Nodding Head, Ludwigs Garten Tasting at my house in the evening. Anyone who would like to come is more than welcome. The itinerary above is subject to change (adding (I got other ideas) or removing), depending on what beers we are looking to try at the current moment. -E
Did anyone even notice this gathering didnt happen? I think we should write this off and go for 2006 as the first offical BP gathering. If I may suggest a few things.... 1) A solid plan - destinations and gathering locations 2) A back up plan. In case Flash is sent to the Ivory Coast or something. [:D] Of course we want the boss there, but if something happens we need something to make sure it rocks on 3) More advertisments for the gathering, perhaps a link on the homepage? Well these are all personal opinions, so I'd like to hear other ideas on how we can make the 06 BP gathering kick ass.
Make it closer to Alabama, plan it in advance, and count me in. (Under those conditions.)

I couldn't agree more, although Chopz and I had a blast on our beer trip to Québec, it would be nice to meet some of our fellow BP's!! Hopefully next year's will happen!!
