Ok, so we've already discussed moving these to a different venue ... private locals ... because well, Pyramid service and billing sucked. So, that stated I want to postulate a slight change in date as well because.....
the first Saturday of July happens to fall on the Fourth of Julplaya weekend - I know not all of us go, but enough do, plus for some odd reason that's a big family weekend. I'll be out of town, camping and vending my soaps. So, what do ya'll think of July 12 instead? and ...who's hosting?
and now August... ya'll can have the August social on the regular first Saturday (Aug 2nd) if you want.... but I'd really really prefer it if you could migrate out of town, and go to the City (yeah, SF... Sac surely aint a City, it's just a city). My reason, you ask.... well, the Temple of Community (art project I'm very involved with this year) is hosting a fundraiser at Il Pirata, 2007 16th Street Potrero Hill, San Francisco, CA - 415-626-2626 - 9pm to 2am... we could really use your support and participation... so come on down!! tribes.tribe.net/templeofcommunity
SO, given that, I propose that we move August's social to Aug 9th?

Re: July and Aug SVB socials....

Re: July and Aug SVB socials....
Mon, June 23, 2008 - 9:01 AMWe won't be around for either weekend in July.
The second week in August looks open, but we wouldn't be able to host since the kiddos will be home. -

Re: July and Aug SVB socials....
Mon, June 23, 2008 - 3:49 PMI have a home in Rancho Cordova and have hosted parties for other groups. If the socials are changed to the second Saturday in July and August, I could host both events (as long as they are just socials and don't involve fire dancing).

Tue, June 24, 2008 - 8:44 AMWhomever is gracious enough to host is the one that sets the guidelines for what works and doesn't. And since we don't fire dance at Pyramid, I think you'd be good to go. lol

Re: July and Aug SVB socials....
Tue, June 24, 2008 - 8:52 AMThe socials I've organized over the past couple years have never had a fire element. They're not intended as burner parties, they're a chill space for people to hang out and get to know one another.
And as Crash just said; whomever hosts sets the rules.
July and Aug are currently open to whenever and wherever the gracious host offers - first weekend is out (for me) - and Pyramid has buried itself in the sand.

Re: July and Aug SVB socials....
Tue, June 24, 2008 - 5:45 PMThen though most of you don't know me, I'll be glad to host both the July and August socials on the second Saturday. Let's make them potlucks. If you'd like to bring your own meat, I can have a propane grill set up in the back yard. I'll supply ice, soft drinks (Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, Mountain Dew, root beer), cups, plates, napkins and plastic-ware. You're welcome to bring alcohol and smokers can use the backyard.
On the playa, I'm a ranger and called Liberty. I've met several of you at the Pyramid (several years ago) and at Dragon's Christmas parties. I've been going to Burning Man since 1999 (missing only 2001).
My home has a large living room and dining room, and is not fancy but fairly comfortable. It's in Rancho Cordova, near Hwy. 50 and Mather Field. I'd prefer people to contact me at sinfulcat@aol.com to get my address and phone number rather than post them online. If you use "July party" or "August party" in the subject line, your e-mail be easier to identify if you get caught in my spam filter.
Did I forget anything?

We are gearing up for the burn and we'd really really like to meet some Sac burners before we go to the playa!
Hope to make new burner friends soon.!
