Okay, let's just make this easy and say it's official - the date for the 3rd LA/OC/So. Cal Greekchat get together will be on Saturday July 10th.

Here's the choices for meeting

1) Acapulco Restaurant at Ports O'Call in San Pedro. It's sort of close to the cruise terminal at the Port of L.A.

2) Dave and Busters at the Block at Orange

3) Downtown Disney (our tried and true spot)

My personal preference is going to be Acapulco in San Pedro since the last two have been in Orange County. Let's move the get together a little more North this time.

Carolyn

I'll be in Newport for a recruitment workshop on the 10th, so my vote is for either the Block, or Downtown Disney.

I don't care which one we go to, but Downtown Disney and/or the Block are much closer for me, and I think that's more of a "central" OC/LA/IE area than San Pedro.

So now we have a date and potential places, how about a time (can I suggest like 4:00ish? since that's the beginning of dinnertime rush hour) and a list of who's expected to be there...

4:00 p.m. on Saturday July 10th sounds like a good time to meet. Seems like the vote is to go towards Orange County again so I'm going to say let's do the tried and true Downtown Disney.

I'm trying to think of all the restaurant choices they have there

Rainforest Cafe
ESPN Zone (can be a bit noisy if we want to talk)
Ralph Brennans Jazz Kitchen
House of Blues
Tortilla Jo's (brand new restaurant)
Naples
Catal

I'm going to vote for Tortilla Jo's, Naples, or Rainforest Cafe

Also, I'm going to try to drag PhiSigScooby to this so add her to the list

I'm in for July 10th! I'm happy to go to any of the suggested locations.


.....Kelly :)

I wish I could go, but I have another event scheduled that day down at the Beach (at the moment)....if things change, I'll let you all know! :)

Alas....I would LOVE to go...but I have to work, I may be able to ask for it off....

put me as tentative... so going to take place in the OC huh?

I really have to think about it but do put me down as tentative.


ms. gwyn

hope you'll be able to get the day off. Yeah it's down in the OC, I'd love to get one up here in L.A. but that seems to be the place everyone wants to meet. At least it's just a freeway drive down to Disney and on the weekend hopefully not a bad one.

I'm away for a couple of days and it looks like you guys got things rolling on this! Very cool. :) I'm not a fan of Rainforest Cafe, I can do House of Blues, Tortilla Jo's, or Naples.

Bobby does that mean that thermobryan is no longer invited or are you guys going to go pimping together ;)?

YAY!

Although I'm up for anywhere but ESPN Zone (I agree- too loud), I'm partial to checking out House of Blues, since I've never been there. Here's who we have so far:

Wonder if we can get some other OC/LA people out here? Anyone regularly talk to any of these?

GPhiBLtColonel (no idea where she'll be in July)
PandaonProzac (from UCI, apparently lives in San Diego)
MareImbrium (from LA area)
DeltaGammaRocks

Have you tried PMs?

I've never been to the House of Blues either so I would love to check it out. Shall we say House of Blues unless anyone has a very strong opposition to it?

Cele lives in Georgia! Granted, she does have the ability to pop on a plane on a whim. If she's going to Chicago for the GPhiB Convention, she may not be able to "swing by" California just a couple weeks later. :(


Bill is in Long Beach now - that's definitely close enough to attend. I'll give him a shout and see if he'll show.


.....Kelly :)

I think Pink&Blue also lives in LA....I'll PM her.


.....Kelly :)

Put me on there too... I think I'll be able to go. What time???

~Beth

Looks like we're all good with 4pm on July 10. Any objections?

I'll try the PMs tonight when I have some more time. Just wanted to check on the thread.

Tracey

Im down....

btw...thermobryan - Bryan - Pi Kappa Alpha

both me and bobby are VPs of our chapter...

Man, I would love to see some drunk pics from this meet up.

I'll check with MareImbrium about if she can come. She is the chapter sister of me, SapphireSphinx, and PhiSigScooby.

Looking forward to this get together - the last two have been a lot of fun. Plus we get to celebrate Kelly's initiation in to GPhiB (congratulations).

Carolyn

I'm so looking forward to this now. Finally I get to go to one of these things... they've just never worked for me before!

Here's what we have now. I'll keep updating as more people add to the list:

Hmm...7:2 Sorority Girl to Pike ratio, very nice!

Oh, you will....

Ok ladies, we definitely need some more guys at this thing! Not that I don't love you Bobby, and Bryan- I haven't met you yet but if you're anything like Bobby- but I don't know if you Pike boys can handle the 7:2 ratio on your own... :rolleyes: Just playin...

But seriously, we could use some more boys... my roommate (former SAE) and his friend (a Phi Delt alum) might be down.

Haha gphiangel624 you beat me to the post! If Brian and Bobby are anything like my cousin who's a PIKE you guys will definitely not be able to handle all of us ;). JK

I was thinking of asking the BF to come up from San Diego (he's a Sig Ep) but he's busy studying for the bar at the end of July so I highly doubt he'd be game. I'll see if I can think of any guys that might want to go.

Hey hey hey, WTF is that suppose to mean? We PIKES can't handle all you girls? I dont know what kinda pikes youre hangin out with, but we can handle our girls better than some SAE's and Sigeps....We'll get some more guys out, but they'll be pikes, haha

lol simmer down now bryan, it was all in good fun! ;) I cant be too hard on the PIKES since you've got representation in my family. Remember make greek love not war hehe.

A little movie reference here:

"Bring it!"

Oh its already been BRRRRRRRRought!


all i gotta say, is whoever goes, whoever you guys bring. you guys will have a BLAST because i'm one of the cooles people you will ever meet. A bit cocky, but I'm all about jus havin a good time. me and gphiangel already have a bet goin on..."who is gonna be the bigger ass". i think i will win that one :cool:

see ya there!

FYI, ms_gwyn is a potential alumna initiate. (We PNAMs have to stick together!) :)


.....Kelly :)

Since Phisigduchesscv emailed me and since she's dragging phisigscobby then you can count me in too. =)

Bobby is definately an ass. Put me down as tentative. :cool:

so what about any of the GCrs from San Diego? Can any of you drive up to OC for the evening?

Also, what about our sister campus "the Beach". CASigKap what about you joining us and representing CSULB?

Watch it Lambda Alpha! All right, enough with the "bring it" crap...if you wanna bring it, its over...I doubt 10 of your girls could handle me....Just wait...

Oh Bobby... believe me, I think you're probably going to make the bigger ass. But I still love you. And we're going to have to see about this Bryan guy... I have a feeling he may be trouble. jk

HBADPi, you're more than welcome to bring your boyfriend; I have him on the tentative list just in case. By the way, Bobby told me you're a grad student at Cal Poly, like me. What are you studying?

HAHA no actually we heard the PIKES at CalPoly were the best you can find so we figured we try our luck ;).

gphiangel - I'm in the CS department, just finished my first year of grad work (thank god!).

Since everyone is putting down their Greek org then I'm from Phi Sigma Sigma. Is it okay to bring someone who isn't Greek?

I might be trouble?? WTF?! I'm never trouble! HAHAHA!! I mean i almost got in a bar brawl last night with another fraternity, but eh...

HBADPi you heard we were the best huh? Best in what department?

Uhm, Carolyn, Polarpi and I live in San Diego. We're both already on the list. :D


.....Kelly :)

I'm hoping I'll be able to make it....if so, you wanna carpool, Kelly? :) I need to find out a couple of things first, but I'm hoping I'll know *for sure* by the middle of next week! :p

Just to double check, what is the official time, date and location??
