Spring 2012 Social -- In Your Town?

It's spring and time for us all to regroup coming out of the OS and heading into the full season. What better excuse to come together for a few beers and compare racing goals and or notes? 

Best part is, EN wants to help...here's how it works.

  • Commit to being a social butterfly.  You know you are.
  • Find 5 or more EN peeps in your area and create an EN Social Event. Maybe use the member map here.
  • Send a few messages to organize the event, setting a location, date & time. (example: Murphy's Irish Pub, 5/1, 8pm). 
  • Send the details to EN Race Director Extraordinaire, John Stark (enracedirector@gmail.com) so he can make an event on Facebook for people to RSVP to.
  • When you have more than 5 RSVPs, please let us know and we'll send you $100 to kick things off.**

** Please Note, Money cannot be used to buy yourself friends. And no, Tucker, cold beverages in pint glasses do not count as friends. image

So who's in????

  • I'm in as the social butterfly for the Boston area. Calling all Boston area peeps. So far I've met people from Boston, Milton, Wayland and I'm from Dedham. I know we all work all over too. I know there are others--Steve, Mike--haven't met, but see you are local. So, anyway-yes, I'll send an email out to get an idea for location & date and then be in touch with John re: FB and such...go team go. Big season ahead for all!
  • P.S. Member map is updated?
  • It gets updated every few weeks...so it's pretty good!
  • I would volunteer to be the social butterfly for Ottawa and surrounding areas. I will take a look at the map and contact those in the Toronto area etc. They are 4 hours away, but who knows -they just might bite.
  • In - I will serve as the Vice-S.B. and work with Dottie to organize a Boston area shin-dig.
  • So Coach, if I happen to be having a party after a race and can get 5+ EN peeps to join in on the fun you will buy the beer????
  • CR and Des Moines/Ames area... I'm in.. I say we find a DM/CR event and hit it up or a big workout/cookout somewhere.
  • @Tucker...will do. image

    @Ebe, that's right! As long as they are triathletes! image

    @Jeremy...let us know what you need to make it happen!!
  • I'd like to organize a get together in SoCal for a weekend evening in May or early June.

    Anyone interested in joining me?

  • I am for lending a hand with the SoCal team!
  • +1 for the SoCal crew! image
  • Hello Social Butterflies:

    If you want to be the POC and you send me an email with your contact info. and what areagion/region you are support/leading for the Spring Social, I will get it pushed out to the team so folks know who to contact.

    Email in sig below.

    Thanks.

  • Chicago is not only in, but I suspect will dominate.. We'll post our total bar bill..
  • I'd like to organize something in north Jersey or westchester for the tri-state crowd. thinking something within 15 minutes of the Tappan Zee Bridge... anyone...Bueller? also up for making it a NYC event in midtown...

  • I think we're short a few south jersey folks. Is there a more recent map?
  • go to the member list and scroll through letters. Many more there than on the map...

  • Hey Coach P or EN tech guy, member map shows me and Brenda not living in the same igloo at the same address up here in the north. I know I am male, did I miss something lol!
  • Steve:  

    Check you profile.  I believe all info on member map is pulled from folks profiles.

    That's correct, you need to have city, state, maybe zip code (or whatever the Canada equivalents are) for the map to know where you are.

  •  I'd like to meet up in SoCal. 

  • @Gene, I think you need to bump Rich!!! image
  • Need to know how to get your dough?

    Send me an email with:

     - Your complete contact information

     - Confirmed and booked location date, address and time of event

     - Make sure all attendees (and you) "Like" the EN Facbook Fan Page (https://www.facebook.com/endurancenation).  

      - I will create an event on the Fan page and that is where you can share the event goodness.  It will be a FB Group for posting stuff., responding, etc.

    Once I have all the 411 from you I will get a check for $100 sent out to you ASAP.

    And to clarify as I have had a few questions . . .  YES, this is open to non-EN folks.  And they should (hopefully) be ultra deep, passionate and hardcore tri-geeks like your bad arse selves.  

     

    Lemme know if you have any questions.

  • Still waiting to hear from John re: how to get the message to the 51 people I have identified from the MA/RI area. Not everyone is on FB, not everyone checks their EN inbox and no emails listed, so...

    Wednesday, 5/23, 7pm at The Yard House, Legacy Place, Dedham, MA (right off highway 95/128). Meet at the bar and those who want to eat can grab a table too.

    See you there! Reply to me dotcatlin@gmail.com or here--

  • South Jersey Social: Monday, May 7th at 6:30. (I'm flexible on time but that sounded late enough to get there from work but early enough to get in bed at a reasonable hour) Iron Hill Brewery in Maple Shade: 124 East Kings Highway (Route 41) Maple Shade, NJ 08052 Please give a definite 'yes' or 'no' so we know who is ableto attend. Thanks & look forward to meeting everyone!

     

    EDIT: Let's plan for this later in the summer.  Looks like we had some conflicts.  Perhaps after IMLP!

  • I'm way out in West Texas, Midland, but any Texas people out there?
  •  Maybe we can use it for the mini Austin 70.3 camp?

  • Is this where I admit I'm bummed there's not another member within a hundred miles of me? It's going to be a lonely Spring Social here in Oregon

  • @Rob, awesome...note John (race director) can hlep you create an event online to rsvp if that helps....

    @Robin, member map has 5 folks in OR, with three in portland area (not including you)....
