Second Annual “Striped-Bass.com Too Friekin’ Cold to Fish Night”

Remember this from last year?

http://www.striped-bass.com/images/sbcomtx.jpg

Gboutdoors, Don Bliz, and ALR went WAY out of their way to put together our winter fund raiser for this site. They rented a hall and Bliz (and Rappin’ Mikey) put together the night’s entertainment with Fisheye doing a video promo, Bomba manning the kitchen for all the dishes brought in by everyone, and generally, everyone had a pretty stinkin’ good time.

About 100 people showed up that night and we had raffles for prizes better than any raffle table I’ve ever seen. Custom Prints like the one Bloo did, the books donated, the fishin trips/charters donated, the custom rods, the reels, the gear, the prizes, and the list goes on… It was an awesome night, an awesome dinner, and it raised the funds necessary to run this site. I think everyone that went will agree that it was a fantastic nite out – except for Milo ‘cause Clammer stole his wife :hihi:

Well, a lot of people have approached me for doing the “Too Friekin’ Cold to Fish Night part Deaux” and I wanted to see what kind of interest we have. Thinking something in February or March, probably in the same area somewhere from Portsmouth, RI to Fairhaven (same place maybe?). And pretty much the same format for the night (with a couple twists J ).

So I’m looking to get a rough idea on who would be interested in this. I also think that the site will fund this night out! Last year, GB, Don, and ALR generously financed the night out in addition to MCing, DJing, handling logistics, and generally making sure we didn’t burn the place down.

If people are interested, I’ll get the ball rolling on this and get it organized. In addition to being a really great time, it also made the site pay for itself for the first time (which was good seeing that I’ve been laid off since May :smash: )

So, add your name below if you would be interested in attending and if your significant other will come too. A lot of people used last year to bring their betterhalfs and prove/disprove that we’re a bunch of fishing freaks :doh: :hihi:

Me, jr link , and my wife if she wants to go , this will be on a weekend right?

:wave: I'll be drinkin heavily with ChrisL. :hihi:

Count me in I'll see if I can find some more books folks might be interested in.
Jim

:D

Im in, will bring wife too!

In , probably Smokey and Dave L too.

I'd be interested, not sure about the other half...

me and the wife
 

will be attending

Gotta wait & see what does or doesn,t happen at Yale //:confused:

$20.00 pp is too much...

i'll be there with the woman again.

:D BigFish is in!:happy:

i'm in, probably bring the entire family and smoke another turkey. maybe i'll do two seeing how viciously attacked the last one was.

i'll do a little checking around to see if i can locate a hall with a bar for a reasonable fee.

I am definitly in... If you want I'll help at the door and do the raffle tickets again.. it was fun and it helped me with my math a bit...:D :D


My mom and dad were just talking my mom knows people at the "Elks"... Mom was gonna make a call or something to check it out.:D Still not sure on the price but it can't be much.http://www.stopstart.freeserve.co.uk...e/thebirds.gif http://www.stopstart.freeserve.co.uk...e/thebirds.gif

I'll go:D not sure about the wife but maybe a bud

John,
If I can fit it in the calendar I'll be there. Sometime toward the end of Feb or later will get me past the 7 day workweek thing.

:wavey: +1

last year = good food (yum), great videos, awesome prizes, and - most importantly - *great company*. time well worth spent!

I'm There! Not sure about the wife though?


:happy: :happy: :happy:

John if you wish I will get any dates that the Fairhaven hall may be open? As last year I would think you want a hall with its own bar that way you are not resposable for any drinking. The hall was $175.00 would be the same this year but I will not be able to help cover it this year .SORRY !! Also I would think the price should stay at $10.00 per person as last year I know I will go at $10.00 but not at $20.00.

I can't make the Plugbuilding GTG, but maybe by then I can make this S-B night GTG. Sounds coool:cool:

I'ld like ta go but gota play it by ear.

In for the long term, unless crap comes up, either way count on me to donate for the raffle table.

Right now I'm just looking to get general interest to confirm people might want to go - I'll look into the specifics tomorow or wed....

GB - Nahh, I don't want you guys to pay again :) - matter of fact, you guys get comped this year :hihi: for your tickets... I'll call you :)

Bliz & all, the tickets will remain just $10 per like last year (was that 10 each or 10 per couple??)... I'll need to ask ALR what the capacity of the place is again but that worked out well - being right across the street and with its own bar... Only major change if we did the same place might be to have smoking just outside and in the bar. That one room got a little tough even for smokers... Just a thought

So lets dig in a little further and I'll see what we can come up with....

Thanks!

$10.00
 

per couple my wife is coming just to say hi.

yeP,count me in .....but SOLO this time:( :laughs: ..........na what the hell put me down for 2 I'm sure I'll find someone:D ,

i liked that there was a hotel right across from the location last year. that helped as the night progressed...... :buds:

FWW - drop IA a line and see if he can make it. :D

..sounds good, if the dates work out - I'll be there.....

I'm gonna do my best to be there.... Tivertons not so far away lol

Count me and Mikey in, too.
Mikey won't be able to help in the kitchen, so I'll probably need one or two volunteers.
Might be bringing the chickie, so if she comes, everybody's all set for the volunteerism.
later,
Rick
ps-the sooner we set a date, the better for me!!!

We will be in attendance. :D

I'll probably go wifey says no if it as smokey as last year.
