| NAC D - Atlanta - Sweetwater Brewery Dates (poll)
OK.
For the Atlanta NAC, I've offered up getting a "fencing.net" night set up at Sweetwater Brewery.
There may be a small entry fee if we reserve the entire space.
Also, there is no marta train service, but it is on a bus line. Most likely the best be will be cabs back.
What would be the best night?

| I voted Saturday, but I'm really indifferent between that and Sunday. Monday I'm flying out, as I suspect a lot of people are. Friday I worry might be too soon to coordinate with people about traveling together or something. |

| Friday or Sunday personally. I am or may be fencing the other those nights and would rather not take a brewery tour right before my one important event

| Saturday.
I might buy beer to some of you, if you're nice enough :-).
Edit: Craig gets a beer, no matter what.

| Combine being at Sweetwater with the fact that we'll still be up late nights with the newborn (Due 12/27  ) and I think the next morning will be *really* rough for me.

| ugh - For the number of people interested we can't host a private event. The brewery tour is open on Friday from 5:30 - 7:30pm, but I don't think we'll be done in time to really partake.
Looks like it's time to look at the local bars to see which one would be a good hang out one of the nights.

| Looking at bars within walking distance and there are a couple that would serve and also the Jocks & Jills right over in CNN Center. The other thing if people have some transportation would be the Highlands and something like Highland Tap.

| Jocks and Jills I don't remember as being anything special, but I might just be a bit addled.
How many people would we have needed for the private party? >40? | |

For the private party, something like 40-50. We're not planning on any more kids, so I should actually be able to put something together the next time there's an event in ATL.

| Brown is a big convention center and I like MARTA. I expect more tournaments in Atlanta. | |

| jocks and jills
We'll try for tomorrow night at Jocks and Jills over in the CNN center. They have a few areas and should work out well. Less of a walk than the alternatives.
Shooting for around 8 or when the fencing dies down.
