We Will Be There

Donna and I go to GC all the time, nice place for all of us to gather, cold beer, good food, MINI owners, what a great way to start the evening. There is lots of room to park and plenty of room inside to mingle.
Cheers,

If it don't, well, the stick must really hurt

Well, at one point there were members who said that "Happy Hour" implied drinking So it was decided to change the name to "Socials"

Any idea if we will be in the bar vs the restaurant area? Apparently it makes a big difference in the smokiness.

Typically the Socials start in the bar area & then sometimes migrate to the restaurant. It all depends on the facility & where they can accommodate us. I've never been to this place so I don't know their seating set up. We don't normally make reservations because we never have an idea how many people will show up. Sorry.
