Again good ideas now we need someone that is organized and wants to host an event to get the ball rolling. Hope someone would like to organize an event soon. :) | |

| Pof Get togethers in Kelowna Posted: 10/5/2009 10:16:00 PM | | Would anyone be interested in a Meet and Greet event in the near future? Any suggestions as to where we can do a meet and greet? | |
|
| Pof Get togethers in Kelowna Posted: 10/8/2009 7:48:41 PM | We have a swimming pool, but it's a little too nippy out for that now! lol
Anyways, my son's friend's father works at The Castle, if you'd like I can inquire if they have anything already planned for that night. I was contemplating going to Seattle for Halloween but staying closer to home might be an option too.
This morning I was actually thinking about a weekly coffee meet on Pandosy. I've noticed there are some great cafes along there. | |
|
| Pof Get togethers in Kelowna Posted: 10/8/2009 7:59:03 PM | Super/Brazen: perhaps we can make the "meet and greet" the "weekly coffee meet"?
All I know is let's get something going here in Kelowna!! I wanna meet some new people!!  | |

| Pof Get togethers in Kelowna Posted: 10/13/2009 9:59:29 PM | | Ya, Creekside pub is good. I would be interested in meeting some single people in Kelowna. All we need now is someone to come up with a great idea, and to take charge to get an event organized. Anyone wanting to take on this task? | |
|
| Pof Get togethers in Kelowna Posted: 10/13/2009 11:35:57 PM | | Both Mon Cherie and I are very experienced at hosting events so as soon as we scope out a few venues and get to know Kelowna better, we'll post something. For now, I'm going to concentrate on the more informal weekly coffee meet. Start small and see what kind of response I get! Details to come soon. | |

| Pof Get togethers in Kelowna Posted: 10/27/2009 8:18:29 PM | Anyone frequent the Blues Jam on Sundays? I've been a few times and just this last Sunday there was some realllllly talented musicians.
Also, instead of coffee I'm thinking a monthly food and wine club. Once a month we check out a restaurant in the Okanagan then possibly go for some drinks afterwards. If anyone has any ideas for our first dining experience, email me, I'm open to suggestions. | |

| Pof Get togethers in Kelowna Posted: 10/28/2009 5:44:11 PM | | A get together in Kelowna sounds great. I love the Blues and have heard that Blue Gator is good. | |
|
| Pof Get togethers in Kelowna Posted: 10/28/2009 7:48:38 PM | I went to the jam on Sunday too. It was great!! I plan on going again.
I look forward to the first dinner event Brazen.
I will also check out the Creekside pub to see if we can get together a meet and greet there. Thanks for the tip.
Of course it would be more fun to plan if there was a show of interest from some more Kelowna POFers!!  | |

| Pof Get togethers in Kelowna Posted: 10/28/2009 11:25:08 PM | | I was just in Kelowna last weekend and would really reccomend the Gator Blues Bar. Great wings , a great live band, and a relaxed atmosphere becasue everyone was over 30. | |
|
| Pof Get togethers in Kelowna Posted: 10/29/2009 12:22:18 AM | I second the creekside, I live 5 mins from it and its great, Tuesday is $1 beef ribs and wed is $0.25 wings, Thurs is prawns for $0.20 but i don't like prawns... :P... Theres also various Karaokes in town Wed/Sat at tom collins, Thurs at Creekside/Freddies, I hear packing house is Fridays but not sure Also wings at toms on weds's | |
|
| Pof Get togethers in Kelowna Posted: 10/30/2009 11:46:14 PM | | I have heard a lot of good things about the creekside, maybe we could do something there maybe on wing night? I would like to get out and meet new people, I am not much of a social butterfly. | |
|
| Pof Get togethers in Kelowna Posted: 10/31/2009 1:28:17 AM | | I love the idea of checking out different restaurants. I dont like creekside but there are some restaurants in town that I havent experienced. Also if anyone wants to plan a pool tourney I would def be into that!! Watching the hockey game and playing pool at roses.... | |

| Pof Get togethers in Kelowna Posted: 11/2/2009 6:06:37 PM | Hey, woohoo, people are coming up with some good ideas!!
I ended up in Kamloops for Halloween. Hope everyone had a great halloween.
I'll check out the Creekside this week and get a "Meet and Greet" going within the next couple of weeks. Would people prefer a weeknight or a weekend for a meet and greet?
I hear the first "Dinner" thing is in the planning stages by Brazen and I can't wait for the first one.
If the meet and greet goes well, perhaps we can do a Christmas party next? For that one, any suggestions on a night club so we can dance? What's the OK Corral like?  | |
|
| Pof Get togethers in Kelowna Posted: 11/2/2009 8:56:36 PM | Week-ends for me are better as I do a lot of driving for work during the week. Glad to hear things are going great for the greet. I already have about 4 people from Penticton ready to come up here.

I'm thinking next month German, I hear there's a great restaurant in Peachland we should check out. | |

| Pof Get togethers in Kelowna Posted: 11/5/2009 8:37:02 PM | It was deleted with no explanation. So I've emailed BigFish because I've gotten no response from The Event Moderator. Hopefully he can help us soon, otherwise we might have to forgo the event altogether.  | |

| Pof Get togethers in Kelowna Posted: 11/6/2009 11:25:55 PM | | What about an activity like laser tag or something? Do a few rounds then go out for drinks. Or maybe do another bowling night? Dinners are so formal at times, and at least while you bowl you can chat with the others and eat finger foods too and its more relaxed. | |
|
| Pof Get togethers in Kelowna Posted: 11/19/2009 5:35:08 PM | Woohoo! Sounds like the dinner is finally going to be a go ahead so we should be able to sign up soon.
I'll sort out the meet and greet after the first dinner event that Brazen is planning. | |
