Madison, WI SS Get Together?

Naperville/Madison | IL/WI | USA | Posted: 11:00 PM on 04.01.06 |
->> Anyone interested in having a get together?
I think it'd be a lot of fun just to put our names and faces together.
I'm thinking either The Great Dane or Madisons downtown, Babes off Whitney way? Claddauh in Middelton is good too, especially for pints.
Bring portfolios and lap tops, we can talk photo geek and get to know each other.
I'm open on dates so if anyone has any ideas please leave a post or drop me a line.

->> Liane: I've been thinking the same thing, and you and I have been communicating via e-mail so this should work out sometime
JT Whitney's on Whitney Way is great, and I know the owners, so we may be able to get the back dinning room as a place to get together.
Let's start posting names, dates if people are interested

->> I'm just down the road in Janesville, but I'd be up for it.
I'm game for most nights except for the week of the 17th-23rd when I'm working the night shift and the weekend. Although I see I do have that Wednesday(the 19th) off.
I just started working on a print portfolio that could use a few beers split on em to break it in properly.

->> I met the bar manager of Babes last night (Scott) and he said if we call ahead he'll reserve all of the bar tables for us. I used to work there in my younger days and they sound accommodating.
OK, Let me think here....How about Wednesday the 19th then? Come whenever you get off work. Unless a weekend would work better?
What about Dan Powers and Ben Schmidt? I know there's a ton of SS'ers in the Madison area. Let's get this thing rolling!
I guess I can send out email invites. Can't hurt. |

->> Liane: I'm game for the 19th
JT Whitney's on Whitney Way has a nice sized back dinning area that is quiet if we feel that might work out better.
Let me know, and i'll talk to the owner and bar manager about it.
Otherwise - Babes on Schroeder Rd works for me, as it's only a hop, skip and jump from both my workplace and home.

| ->> I'd be game... my nights are crazy though with work - I probably won't know when I'm working until the Friday before. If it's late enough in the evening, I think I could make just about any day work... Mondays and Fridays are best though (aside from the weekend, of course). |

| ->> I'm game. It looks like we're all pretty busy, so I doubt there will be a day when all of us could make it together... So maybe just throwing a day/time out there would be best. Tuesday evenings or weekends work the best for me. |

Naperville/Madison | IL/WI | USA | Posted: 4:09 PM on 04.05.06 |
->> I hate Cheeseburger in Madison, the original is far more.....realistic.
I was hoping we could do Babes, I've got friends who work @JTWhitneys and I know they spit in food, if you get my drift.
I'm game for anyday. Me no worky right now.
Friday would be good for me too.
Let's take a poll, Wednesday 4/19 or Friday 4/14 or 21st?
Nate, I just figured that out. Appleton isn't too far from here. I'm surprised Ben moved to FL. I went to HS with his sister. BTW, did you just join the Racine paper? I almost applied, but didn't want to move there. |

->> Madison isn't too bad a drive for me... Wednesday 4/19 is a better date for my schedule.
I am pretty new here so I would love to get acquainted with some other SS members.

->> The 19th is the only potential time for me... and better a later time than sooner. :) Like 8 or 9pm. I'll be in Milwaukee until about 7pm...
Thanks for setting this up. I think it'll be pretty interesting. |

->> OK...It's a date.
Let's meet @ Babes on Schroeder off of the Whitney way exit at 8pm on Wednesday April 19th.
If you're late I think we can all forgive you;)
Yes, Belivdere is very close. Sorry I missed sending you an invite Curtis. Your name looks very familiar, maybe we emailed a couple of years ago. Are you in the Military?
Anyways, here's the address:
5614 Schroeder Rd, Madison, 53711 - (608) 274-7300
I'll call Scott and tell him 10 people and if we need more, I'm sure it won't be a problem.
I hope everyone can still make it, and I'll see you there. Let me know if you need a lift. I'm close to Fitchburg, PD, Park St. Downtown, and Westside.
Have a great weekend.

->> It was cool meeting everyone and sharing pix. We'll have to do it again sometime this summer. I put up 2 pix in the fun pix, not my best work, but hey, who cares.?
Remind me that I'm not 21 anymore and after 3 beers you can wipe the floor with me. YIKES!
I'll definately contact everyone about teaming up to shoot some weddings soon.
Take Care:) |
