Drinking Skeptically in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada

[Horatius]

The Ottawa Skeptics are co-sponsoring a new branch of Drinking Skeptically.

We're hosting an event at the Gloucester Branch of the Royal Oak pub, on Sunday, Aug. 24th, at 7:00pm. If the event goes well, and people like the location, we're hoping to make this a regular event.


I'm the contact guy for this event, so e-mail me at: david.green@ottawaskeptics.org, if you'd like more information.

FYI, I've added this to the Skepchick events calendar

 

[Horatius]

Cool, thanks!

Just bumping this, as we're getting close to The Day.


We've had 70 views! Dare I hope we'll have too many people for the bar to handle?


No, probably not, but I can get my hopes up!

Bah, as of yesterday I have a family dinner at that time. Sorry to miss it.

Well, crap. Thanks for bumping the thread, in any case. One more day! Plus a few hours, okay, sure.

If this works out well, we'll have more events at this location, so you can make the next one!

Okay, so it looks like no one but me can make it this weekend, so we've re-scheduled for Sunday, Oct. 26th, at this location.

You probably need to drink if you live in Ottawa.

 

[Walter Wayne]

Only when parliament is in session.

Snarky Ottawa jokes aside, I'm bumping this to remind people that it's two days away!

We've scheduled our next DS in Ottawa for Sunday, Dec., 14th, at 7pm. It's at the same location as the last one, but in the downstairs pub this time.

Also, it turns out that I'm not the only member of the Ottawa Skeptics who has a December birthday. It looks like there's at least 4 of us, so I've declared this the "December Birthdays Never Get a Good Party" Edition of Drinking Skeptically!

 

[Horatius]

Bumping this as the next event is this coming Sunday!

Let's hope the bus strike is over by then!

I might be able to attend this...

If I do, I am able to provide a ride to people living in the east end of the city. (I can also act as a designated driver.)

Message me if you need a lift.

We've booked out next Event for Feb. 15th, at the same location as the last two. We'll be up stairs again this time.

 

[Horatius]

We currently have 7 "yeses" and 11 "Maybes" from attendees, so I think we'll have a good turn out!

 

[Horatius]

We have our next DS in Ottawa in one week, on March 15th. Same time, place as the last few.

 

[Pipirr]

Yes, we did. That was a lot of fun.

When is the next one?

 

[Horatius]

Yes, we did. That was a lot of fun.

When is the next one?

We've already booked it for Apr. 19th. I'm calling it the "Dave's off to Japan!" edition, as I leave for my Japan trip later that week.
