Its that time of year again lets go!
Just tell me when ya'll are having vacation 'til and I'll figure out the rest!
We plan on making the gathering at the Park next to the Brea mall and eat at any of the restaurants nearby.
Assuming from what happened at the last 2 gatherings we're just going to hang out, spin, chill, crack open some beers, light up a bowl.... errr forget the last two. Pretty mellow gathering.
Any suggestions?
Tell your friends!!
Location:
1065 Brea Mall
Brea, CA 92821
11:00 AM - Whenever everyone's gone
We will most likely go to Craig Regional Park which is south of the mall.
Look on google maps to see where the park is.

Tek:
"I mean come on guyssssss"
lol -
Date: Tue, Dec 25 2007 17:31:23
T.T nevermind my dad said I was crazy to be wanting to go that far down -
Date: Wed, Dec 26 2007 18:37:55
Socal? Man, that's so far away! (Haha, I live in norcal) The only way I could go down there would be if we decided to visit family or if I were to visit colleges...hmmm.

I think we have too many people near the LA area to have everyone drive up to Santa Barbara. I don't mind giving people a ride, but I don't think my car can fit everyone.
I would offer to give the people in SB a ride, but on second thought...that would not work. I'd have to drive up 4 hours (San Diego to SB), back 2 hours (SB to LA), up another 2 hours to drop you off, and down another 2 hrs (back to LA, where I can stay at a friend's place). That's like...uh...10 hours of driving (probably less, but still), which doesn't leave much time for anything else.
Hypotetically speaking, if we could get everyone from LA in my car, and all their parents give them permission to take off with a stranger (lol), then it would 4 hours up, then 2 hours back...which isn't as bad. But that would also require the people in SB to arrange a place for the gathering, which is pretty last minute.
At least at Brea, we've already got a couple gatherings, and we've found a good place for the gathering (assuming it doesn't rain).
Perhaps you guys can find a way to take a train or coaster down to somewhere closer? Then I don't mind picking you guys up.

Soooo, January 5th, the Park across the street from the Brea Mall. If its raining, meet in the Food court in the Brea Mall.
Lets say? 11 am-ish to whenever in front of the park entrance?
PM me if any, and I mean ANY of ya'll want my number -
Date: Sun, Dec 30 2007 17:31:30
ok, so i'm not sure if i can come but i will try. Since its at 11, should we jsut meet at a restaurant to eat lunch first, then go to the park. and ued, pm me your number.
-
Date: Sun, Dec 30 2007 20:54:14
now all i need is an excuse for my parents to let me go harharhar
-
Date: Tue, Jan 1 2008 03:19:21
I say we meet at the foodcourt like last time for lunch then we can move over to the park later after lunch. itll be more convenient like that and it should be easy for people to find each other at the food court.
-
Date: Tue, Jan 1 2008 03:34:47
man i need to find a way for my parents to let me go hang out with a group of "strangers" and i need to somehow get a ride there

Tell him to make it at the park! I'll rent a big jumper! -
Date: Thu, Jan 3 2008 06:18:01
ok, would you guys like to meet at the mall first or at the park first, read Pholord's post.
Its going to be at 11 so, better be there.
I'm just going to post my damn number if anyone needs it(first post). -
Date: Thu, Jan 3 2008 09:26:06
Can we do a head count on who's going? So we don't end up waiting for people in the food court forever...lol.
Also, who needs a ride (that's not too far from Brea Mall)? PM me you address and I'll see if it's on my way or if it's not too out of the way. I can't promise anything though. It doesn't look like I'll have a place to stay in LA this time (my friend is out of town), so I'll have to drive up there and back to San Diego the same day...which means I have to save my energy...can't drive more than 6 hours
Anyways...rather than spending my time designing and printing an insert for the gathering this year, I figure we can try something different and more fun. So I started working on a new project that should be pretty interesting, specially with plenty of pen spinners. What is it? It's a surprise I'm actually still developing the idea and will need everyone's help at the gathering to test this new "project". But I've been playing with the concept for a week and it's already shown great results.
So bring your pens and skills and we'll have some fun.
[Edit]Looks like we won't be able to go to the park as it will be raining. http://www.weather.com/weather/newscenter/...?alertId=175233 We can still meet somewhere indoors though[/Edit] -
Date: Thu, Jan 3 2008 20:56:15
guess we have to meet in the food court again... hope nobody starts staring again...

Date: Fri, Jan 4 2008 00:04:31
If your gonna make a head count count me in I will be there.
-
Date: Fri, Jan 4 2008 01:10:53
well, since we can't go to the park, I guess there's no need for a head count. But thx for confirming anyways.
One more thing...bring stuff to write with (that means paper and pencil...pens are for spinning ) -
Date: Fri, Jan 4 2008 05:40:28
Ok, I just PM'ed everyone who said they were going, will probably have an official head count be tomorrow or something.
But the park idea is still ok, if it doesnt rain.
Some one bring a hacky sack, I lost mine.... And kam's keys hurt,... -
Date: Fri, Jan 4 2008 06:36:12
o wow i would have been able to go if i hadnt of missed this thread, i only live about 2-3 hours away from there (San Luis Obispo). lame!!! ... maybe next one though.

Yeah...don't sweat it...looks like there might be enough people further north to make a gathering near Santa Barbara. I'm thinking...summer...beach...underwater spinning? o_O lol
But that's something to discuss at a future time.
[Edit]Dan, I'm bringing a hacky sack...it old and dirty...but well "broken-in". It's even got some of the pebbles removed for easier stalling. -
Date: Sat, Jan 5 2008 08:11:18
Official count is like 7 or 8 people. Decent number. See ya'll soon.
Check the first post for information. -
Date: Sat, Jan 5 2008 08:31:59
There's still a flood watch alert going on here in San Diego, and I heard the weather is getting bad in Orange County.
Anyways...I'll check the news in the morning. If there's really bad flood going on in LA or San Diego, then I'm gonna stay in San Diego...it'll be too risky to drive in those conditions and get stuck in the freeway if my car stops. And I would suggest everyone to stay at home too if there's flood going on. Safety is the most important thing right now, and I would hate it if something bad happened to a pen spinner because they were trying to make it to a gathering.
I know school starts soon for a lot of you, but we can still do a gathering on a weekend, or over spring break. I didn't think the weather was gonna be so serious, but people are being cautious and treating it almost as serious as the fire of a few months ago. I already have my emergency evacuation bags packed again.
But we'll see...so far the weather hasn't been as bad as they predicted. I'm still hoping on being a great day for a gathering though -
Date: Sat, Jan 5 2008 17:54:27
Weather looks good, GET YO ARSES THERE!
I'm gonna take a shower and leave. Dont PM me, my inbox is full. I posted my number for a reason! -
Date: Sat, Jan 5 2008 17:57:29
Yeah that was what my mom was telling me as well. We aren't going to go if the rain is pooring to hard. So hopefully it's not bad.

We're referring to the new "project" that I introduced to everyone at the beginning of the gathering. You actually left as we were starting the first round, so you didn't get the full experience of the project (sry ), but you did get the benefit of its concept.
Thanks to everyone's feedback, there were some minor changes that needs to be made to the rules. So I asked everyone to keep this within ourselves until I get a chance to type everything out and release it. Besides...the concept mostly applies only to gatherings or situations where many pen spinners are together. -
