Christmas Swap/Secret Santa/Meet+Greet

Post by TravisRush » Mon Nov 10, 2008 9:12 pm

Would anyone be interested in having a get-together/tackle swap meet in December? It could be like a WL bassin' get-together and we can bring whatever tackle we want (or don't want) and can trade with other like-minded members. Anyone have any interest in this?

I know it may be tough with those mountains in the way, but it would a nice way to get to know those people you have been BSing with in the chat room!

I would be game for this too - especially if it was for gear in general and not focused only on Bass.

BB had a great idea. We could have a "secret santa" thing and set a monetary limit beforehand. Cool?

We were thinking the 20th of December...not too close to Christmas but still can spread some cheer. Anyone down for this date? It's a Saturday...

If you know for sure you can make it, please post a "wish list" along with an RSVP (limit to 5 things that are under $20)

More than likely, this will be in the Greater Seattle Area (possibly Sammamish?)

Sounds like we all have gear to spare.I'm very interested.Perhaps a twist in this could be a canned food drive or something like that.Maybe get our name out there a bit.Maybe if we bring food stuffs or whatever for our troops overseas so they know we still love them and respect them in this time during the holidays.Just a thought.

If neede I could do the can food collection part of it ifin thats ok.I dont really have a wish list item either other then a Honda 5hp motor (new one) or a GPS unit for both land and water,and maybe 6 winning numbers for the mega bucks lottery (future one).
