<!channel> - It's official! @early-dress-81582 and I are hosting a socially distanced dance party THIS SATURDAY Feb 20 in the SAME SPOT as yesterday at the Berkeley Marina. The Theme will be GENE 41.0 as we will be celebrating our favorite 328D owner's birthday. We will be going 2-6pm or later depending on, well, things. Wear a mask or be far away from other people. Be safe. We're 11 months into this thing, you know the drill.

@clean-army-21719 We talked and think the Marina is a better spot for regular activity. The BART station could draw unwanted "regulatory" attention and we do not want to get shut down
Directions: Go to the Berkeley Marina round-about (Go West from the freeway, keep right, then you're forced left past the entrance to the dog park and when you are about to hit the Bay you go around a round-about. Then go NORTH or right on the trail for like 100 yards)

I am thinking we will make this a regular thing - Rockridge BART is definitely a destination @clean-army-21719

@cool-pizza-44770 - Your buddy Dana mentioned they know one of the BART folks at Rockridge. Can you reach out to invite them to Saturday but also see if they can talk to their buddy? We'd like to go to Rockridge BART at some point soon

WHEN IS YOUR BIRTHDAY
happy birthday

February 23rd. Ok so this is a Gene birthday party. Awesome!
s
In my culture it’s bad luck to have birthday party before your actual birthday
d
Well I will not be appropriating that particular piece of your culture
And technically isn't every birthday party before your next birthday?
s
not if you die

So grim. Yes eventually the cycle is broken.

We learned a lot yesterday. Mostly that we enjoy being outside and seeing friends and listening to music.

ha, so funny story, i was planning a birthday hang for the same day and already told some people about it but didn’t send out the email in time. i’m going to do mine 12-4ish, so folks can attempt both if they like, but no prob if y’all don’t make it. if you want an invite dm me your email address (unless you are chuk, renee or gene, i have yours.) maybe if things work out neatly i’ll come by for the end.
s
are also you having your birthday hang at the Berkeley Marina?
b
no
down by lake merritt
it would make some sort of sense perhaps to combine forces, but i’ve never even been to the marina so would rather not host a gathering on unknown terrain
e
@bland-answer-10540 @square-country-13088 merge the birthdays?
b
i’d rather not go to the marina, but don’t mind if you guys would prefer to come hang in lakeside park. i don’t know if you can do your whole amplified sound masterplan there though.
don’t worry about me, y’all do your thing ❤️ i’m just bummed i prob won’t go is all. make it a regular thing and i’ll go to the next one
e
Cesar Chavez Park (north end of berkeley Marina is super chill!

so cute. i appreciate it, but i already have a plan in motion 🙂 don’t worry, i don’t think i’m going to be cannibalizing your hang. if y’all are up for it i might even be able to come by on the later side and bring any of my stragglers from earlier.
(lmk if you want that or you’d rather me not invite folks y’all don’t know… fine with either)

@bland-answer-10540 The Marina is fantastic with less people than Lake Merrit and easy access to secluded outdoor pee spots. I would love to see you and some of your friends! Make sure everyone has masks and some comfy stuff to sit, as well as warm clothing (You know the drill!) Happy Birthday too! Can't wait to see you!
b
thx 🙂 really can’t make promises i’ll be able to attend but if i can i will
