The date is fine with me.

Either location sounds GOOD! Coburg road works a bit better for me...but Springfield is just fine.

Seeing this topic makes me wish I was close enough to drive over.

It would be fun to OC just barely off of campus in Eugene at whatever spot theneo-hippies and college marxistsfrequent most often.

Hello,

Just found this form today and glad to see the OC movement in the Eugene/Springfield area. Havinga CHL for years, I never considered OCing. But, would love to join one of your meets. Unfortunately, I will be out of town until February, so hopefully next time!

First of all, Welcome! Keep tabs on these threads as we will be making the meetings fairly regular (as we can) with possible outdoor events during the summer, think bbq.

How does this work for everyone?:

Saturday, January 17th,
4pm
Papa's Pizza on Coburg Rd. in Eugene

Place for the kids to play, pretty good pizza, family atmosphere.

However, if you want (what I consider) to be REALLY good pizza, there's Joey's at 15th & South A Street in Springfield.

...?...

Well???? IS we IS or IS we ISN'T? I haven't seen a definite word here. Can be at either location if we have a definite decision to gather.

Well, it turns out I may not be able to make it.

Everyone else seems OK with Papa's on Coburg Rd. at 4pm, so why don't you guys just keep it at that?

I'll try to be there if I can but I fear other pressing matters may get in the way of my attendance :(

Well, my family all decided we were hungry at 2:00 and went to Papa's for lunch, and figured we'd wait around until anyone else showed up at 4:00.

But then by the time 4:00 rolled around, they all wanted to go shopping and we were tired of Papa's... We left at 3:58, but I was looking for James or Doc to come walking in while we were walking out :(

Have to try again next month I guess...

Hehe.. man we must have JUST missed you! I was walking in as ya'll were leaving. I even got my anti-gun g/f to come with me! We sat there from just before 4 to about 4:40 or so..

Not knowing if there would be new faces, I didn't figure it would be good form to yell out "Hey anyone else carrying a gun here!"

:D

Lets shoot for next month and I might make a nice sign to put on the table stating "Welcome OCDO members!"

Yup, next month it is. I'm going to let someone else pick the location/place/time this time, since I felt bad about not being able to commit toshowing upfor sure, then even worse for going there early and not being able to stick around after 4:00 to find anyone else.

Oh well, I do notice there's a couple new Eugene/Springfield members posting in some of the other Oregon threads. We'll have to get them to come next month so we can prove we don't bite :)

I tossed out some invites to the new Oregon guys.. might get a few new faces next month..

Papa's wasn't a bad idea, good food, plenty of room.. but I will look around for other places that might work as well. We might as well spread the wealth.. in the spirit of our new Socialist government starting Tuesday.. :p
