    Anneshirley, definitely all are invited!

    Julia (jdash) is working on getting time commitment from place(s) that have been her clients -- so we're waiting on definitive word about time and place, I think.

    So glad you'll be in town and able to come!

    Thanks again for doing this Julia. Hawaiian Tropic Zone sounds like just the place we need after these dreary winter days. 1:00 would be great for me!

    I just went through this thread and counted 15 positive responses.

    (Did I miss anyone?)

    (I've also contacted Lynnelb, who seemed interested, and Jo50 who has come to other get togethers.)



    I guess it's time to make a firm commitment for Julia. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone!

    HI JULIA:

    Welcome back!  1:00 is a great time for me.  Gives me time to get into New York from Long Island.  Arpy from the chatroom is interested in coming also.  I will see if I can connect with her to find out for sure.  I am coming back home early on March 8th from my trip so I will be sure to check the board for any changes.  I just need the details so I can pass it along to the ladies/men in chat.  I will tell them to post here if they are coming.

    Thanks again for taking the time to make this happen for us.

    Hugs to all!

    Julia,

    Board member Violet (Elizabeth) is also interested, and I am PM'ing her right now with a link to this conversation.

    I'm also PM'ing Carolina59.

    You know what I hadn't realized until a few days ago?  March 9th is my 1-year anniversary of "the phone call" -- I cannot think of any way to spend it that would be better than this!!!

    Best,

    Ann

    Oh -- by "board" I just meant this "community knowledge exchange" (as in internet bulletin board) -- oops!  Actually, I imagine BCO has a board, but I don't think I know anyone on it!

    Hate to be a prude, and please forgive me if I've got the wrong end of the stick here, but I just googled this place, and it seems like a feminist's nightmare--servers in bikinis and nightly swimsuit pageants. It's like a temple to men's breast fantasies. I'm just asking, is this really where we want to gather for this event?

    I'd like to echo Ann--so-o-o-o sweet of you to go to all this trouble.  I did get a bit nervous when I saw all those breasts at the Hawaiian place.  But anywhere else would be great.

    As far as I'm concerned, I have no problem with the Hawaiian Tropic Zone. It's a touristy theme restaurant with a tropical theme. It sounds like fun to me and I'm sure it won't be offensive on Sunday afternoon. It seems as though many organizations and Broadway shows have had events there.

    That being said, I'll go with the flow. Thanks for your efforts, Julia.

    I noticed that my name is listed as a firm comittment for the NYC get together. I can't make this committment due to complications with my surgery on Feb 12th. Much as I would like to be there, it will be 10 weeks before we know if one of my implants will "make it." Meanwhile my ps wants me to keep all activity down to the most minimum. Sorry I can't meet you all; would have loved to.

    So sorry we won't be able to meet you on March 9, femme -- but hope it'll happen some other time.

    Keeping fingers crossed for your implant,

    Best,

    Ann

    Hi Julia..

    Thank you for your time and effort with our NYC get together.  I think a Sunday early afternoon would be on the tame side of Hawaiin tropic zone but I do understand the conflict.  I am fine with any plans you can formulate for the group.  If you need my help in anyway..I'm around until this Sunday.

    i totally understand anyones hesitation - i did see on the website as peg says that they have been involved in many other fundraisers and organizations and guess i was more focused on the $30 (with all mimosas we can drink which is unheard of in nyc) have no problem trying to locate another spot

    will advise in next few days

    spoke to my client today and he understood and would try to put us in more privat area but there are some women in restaurant walking around in bathing suit tops and sarong

    Hey, J,

    Benita (Happy2BMe) is a maybe. I'm sure she'll post soon, but I just wanted her to be included in the count...

    Peg, I emailed you about riding down to Rockland County together to meet up with Desny and her hubby. You game?

    Eek! Something has just come up that I cannot get out of, so I have to bail on the get-together. I'm very sorry. I would love to meet my New York Cisters. Take me off the for-sure list, but I'll check back for final plans, so if I can get free early enough, I'll drop in at the end.

    ok  still checking for a place- seems some of my other clients either they thought place would not be good for our get together (places had bars and its march madness for sports fans and a bit crazy )

    waiting for another to get back to me but $ wise - no one can do a brunch with mimosas  (all u want ) other than Hawiian Tropic
