As might be apparent from the lack of any earlier posting. I've been too preoccupied with work and other life issues to worry about putting together any CBGT for this year's boat show. As such I'm letting everyone know that I'm abdicating my previous role as organizer for this event. If anyone wishes to take it over or do something for the show, by all means feel free to do so.

How about simply setting 2 or 3 (or more) meeting times at the c-dory booth, and agree on a restaurant after meeting . I would suspect a daytime weekday for a lunch would work well for us retirees, and a evening time and weekend time for those working days. I went 3 times last year and would have been happy to meet people each time.

Pioneer Square and the stadium area have lots of restaurants, and so long as we are not eating at prime time there usually is lots of room for drop-ins.

We could agree as to meeting times via this thread.

Susan is working on something. She will post in a day or two. Working on a hotel that will let us have a pot luck. If that does not work out then the above plan looks good.

Super Bowl 50/Seahawks - will it be a factor?

Being retired and a day's drive away, I don't want to compete with the working people on the weekend. I'll come mid-week, so I like RobLL's idea. It would be great to meet some other C-brats at the show.

If something happens between Jan 30 and Feb 1, I could probably make it over for the weekend.

rogerbum, Thanks for all your efforts from previous years. I know how work can get in the way of life. I haven't been at the SBS CBGT for a couple years, due to that work thing. I did make it to the Brewery for the mini get together there. I hope we can do that again.

Thanks again,

Harvey

PostPosted: Tue Dec 08, 2015 10:44 pm    Post subject: The Pot Luck has been resurected Reply with quote

To All,

We have resurrected Saturday night Pot Luck.The Silver cloud at Lake Union has given us the Lakeview lobby with existing setup at $200 + tax rental fee. This room is the Room that they host their continental Breakfast in the mornings. I believe it is on the second floor. It is s Huge Room with tables, chairs, lake views, a patio, tea coffee, electrical outlets. We are allowed to bring in any food. I will apply for the 10$ liquor license for beer and wine.

The PotLuck will be Saturday Jan 30th from 5-7 pm. The lake view lobby room is not a private affair so other hotel guests are welcome in , but C-brats love to brag about our boats so i am sure they would enjoy our company. We can arrive earlier to set up if we wish and stay longer than 7pm as long as we are Quiet after 7pm . there are adjacent rooms to the lobby that they will try to put our group in . But they said they will ask us to be quiet after 7pm. We will see how that goes. I only see talking and laughing as a problem after 7pm. But if we have the whole floor who cares.

I need to confirm by friday for the Lobby. and i will pay for the rental fee next week if this sounds like a good idea to most.

the silver cloud at Lake union has also reserved 20 rooms at a group rate. I will post those details next.

Susan

Why the Silver Cloud at Lake union? and not down town Silver Cloud?

Price and free parking and free shuttle

At the Silver Cloud lake unions site All guests receive the following complimentary guestroom amenities:

Free Hot Breakfast Daily
Free Wireless High Speed Internet
Free Parking Onsite
24 hr Business Center
24 hr Indoor Pool
24 hr Gift Shop
Shuttle Services to Space Needle, Pike Place Market and Pioneer Square

The boats afloat part of the boat Show is across teh street from the Silver cloud hotel at lake union, and has a free shuttle to the Century Link field where the main boat show is.

shuttle schedule
http://www.seattleboatshow.com/shuttle-schedule.html

Our Group Rate is as follows, and they have set aside 20 rooms at this price

Guestrooms
Standard King or Two Queen Bed Guestroom: $139 + tax per night
Lakeview King or Two Queen Bed Guestroom: $159 + tax per night
Lakeview Suite Guestroom: $189 + tax per night
Please note these rates are quoted for a group rate of 20 rooms per night or more anticipated over your stay dates of January 29 – February 1, 2016 checkout.
Please note these rates are subject to change, based on availability, until a signed contract agreement is in place between the hotel and group. I only have a verbal agreement at this time. and will confirm the reservation on monday after i get feedback form you all.


The address of the Silver CLoud Lake Union hotel is as follows
Address: 1150 Fairview Avenue North, Seattle, WA 98109
Phone: 206.447.9500

The website
http://www.silvercloud.com/seattlelakeunion/directions


just to compare the rooms at the Silver cloud stadium, for a standard king bed or 2 queens beds is $179 , plus tax for 206$, plus 30$ a day parking fee. so total would be 236 per day

All sounds great Susan but I am only wondering about the potluck. With folks gone at the show for the whole day and staying in the hotel, what are folks going to be able to bring/make/prepare? I guess many could bring a cold something from home and stash it in the minifridge... Just thinking it will be tough to put dishes together without at least the tiny floating kitchens most have on the boats. Maybe another night out at Dukes across the street is in order.

Greg

I dont know? any ideas are welcome. I would think it was no different then the potluck at the larkspur hotel. I brought my cockpot and let enchiladas cook in the hotel room in the crockpot during the day on saturday while we were at the boat show. lots of people brought pizza, chicken , sandwiches. deserts. etc. and of course Ruthy brought cake.

but there are several restaurants available..

there is a I Luv Sushi across the street also. and Daniels broiler (but Pricey).

but if no pot luck is an old worn out idea and unwanted i need do know preferable by monday

I like the idea of eating out both nights... I would not be able to make the Friday evening event as the clipper arrives from Victoria at 7:45... and might have trouble organizing food for the pot luck. However, if we go for the potluck, I am sure I could bring something!
