Dec. 18th 6PM meetup at the Heartland Brewery on 43rd st.

If you are interested in the lunch version on the same day (i.e. Dec. 18), go here:

Lunch on Wednesday, Dec. 18th

NYLisa: Ok, I'll keep track of who is coming, based on the board posts to the AFTERWORK GTG on Dec. 18th at 6pm at the Heartland Brewery.

Sha11209: I think if we meet at 6, we should be there till at least 8pm, depending on how long people want to stay, so come along.

Here is the current list on who is coming:

Alina
Octbride03
Mistyeyed
Sonicstef - maybe
mv1003
sept20yay!
nylisa
jennyg
shamma96
Fletch
sha11209
bridetobe
wacky
dkga1026

When should I make reservations?

Re: We should do a lunch meetup in Midtown!

alina, we already have 14 (possibly 15) people. Maybe you should make the reservation now (since it is during Dec. with all Xmas GTGs). We could always call them back and add on people as they respond.

Re: We should do a lunch meetup in Midtown!

Alina- thanks so much. I only have a computer at work so was out of the loop for a bit

I'd make the reservation now too - considering it's midtown and the holiday's. It gets crazy, as we all know

Re: We should do a lunch meetup in Midtown!

Should I reserve the bar area or the dinner area or to rephrase it: Are you guys planning to eat or is it mostly drinks? Or get a dining area and we can all split appetizers?

Re: We should do a lunch meetup in Midtown!

What's a grab bag? A doggie bag that you take out if you have leftover food in the restaurant?

Re: We should do a lunch meetup in Midtown!

I say reserve a big table...this way we can order food and talk.

A grab bag is a great idea! We all can bring a little gift, set a cap at like 10 bucks or something. And everyone will get a chance to grab one!

Re: We should do a lunch meetup in Midtown!

I like the idea that was used at Umbretos with the name tags. Would you like for me to make them? I also love the idea of a grab bag.

alins, a grab bag is when you buy a gift, wrap and put it in a bag and then you get to pick one out of the bag for yourself.

Re: We should do a lunch meetup in Midtown!

I'm sorry Alina - a grab bag is where everyone comes with a wrapped (or unwrapped sometimes) gift. We all put the gifts we bring in a bag. Each of us gets to pick. We would set a limit - Mistyeyed said $10, I think that's good. This way we all get a little gift to take home

If no one likes that idea, we dont have to do it. I just figured to add to the holidays!

nylisa - good idea with the name tags! I will have NO idea who anyone is without them!

Look forward to seeing you all!!!

Re: We should do a lunch meetup in Midtown!

Can we change the title of this post? Being there is two post now...one for dinner and one for lunch? I think some people may be getting confused.

Re: We should do a lunch meetup in Midtown!

I like the grab bag idea and name tags too. I'll participate, but can't make name tags since I don't have a printer

I have made a reservation for 16 people (which is the number I had when I called). They'll have to seat us at 2 tables, and we can't be late, b/c they'll only hold the table for 15minutes.

Here is the info:
Wednesday, Dec. 18
6PM
Heartland Brewery & Chophouse
127 West 43rd St at Times Square, NY, NY 10036
Tel: (646) 366-0235

I made a reservation under my real name and will forum mail it to people once I'll have the final headcount. I would like to know who is coming for sure by next friday, the 13th, at which point I'll call Heartland to increase the #. Sounds good?

Here is what I have so far:

Alina
Octbride03
Mistyeyed
Sonicstef - maybe
mv1003
sept20yay!
nylisa
jennyg
shamma96
Fletch
sha11209
