When: Sunday, December 16, 1pm
Where: Sun Up Brewing in the Brewers' Den (Just ask the hostess for the vaping Group when you arrive if you don't know where it is).
Location: 322 East Camelback Road, Phoenix, AZ 85012
Light Rail Stop: Camelback & Central
Parking: Lots of parking in Sun Up's parking lot.

Great food at Sun Up, please consider having lunch and a drink (or two) there so we can continue to have our meets there for free! The beer-battered onion rings rock, the hummus comes highly recommended, and they make a great buffalo burger! More info about Sun Up is available on their website!

Local suppliers are often in attendance so you can buy liquids, atomizers/cartos, drip tips, mods, etc. Desert Vapes usually shows up loaded for bear. If you have something to sell or trade, bring it along! If you DIY and have a juice you're proud of, bring some and let folks try it!

Rebuildable Workshop Redux - Do you rebuild your atomizers? If you do, please bring your rebuild stuff and we'll get a side table going to demo techniques, swap supplies, and compare notes. If you haven't tried rebuilding yet but want to know more about it, this is your chance to sample and learn!

Raffle News - We will have our usual raffle drawings (please consider bringing something to donate for our drawings, vaping-related or not!) and as always, we'll have our 50/50 cash pot drawings from the money brought in from raffle ticket sales. Our local suppliers often donate something great as well.

Spread The Word - If you know vapers that aren't part of ECF, invite 'em! Know any smokers looking for alternatives? Bring 'em along! The more the merrier!

Social Schedule - If you have the googles you can now get the VIP calendar right here! If you don't, here's the tentative schedule through the middle of 2013 which should be verified shortly:

The December meet has come and gone, and as always, a great time was had by all.
The crowd was small but the talk was large and the vapor was thick!

New faces and old friends were in attendance, with Dave and Tish from Desert Vapes setting up shop!

Bacon challenge accepted! Jennifer, LeAnn, Stacie, and Matt from .... Out all took a swing
at vaping the DFW Vapor bacon juice, and they unanimously dubbed it as 'icky'.

RAFFLE TIME! I didn't get a pic of the prize table this time around (was too busy jawin' and vapin'),
but it was piled high with goodies donated by members and Desert Vapes including a Christmas-
themed promo pack and a full pay-it-forward eGo starter kit! The raffle took in 95 bucks, and the
50/50 drawings (for $48 and $47 respectively) were won by Stacie and Desert Vapes Dave

Sara won an eGo lanyard donated by Desert Vapes and a Vapor9 e-cig

Sunny scored a $25 gift certificate for .... Out donated by Matt and a Victory 510 starter kit

Gary won a couple of bottles of Mt. Baker Vapor juice

LeAnn raked it in this month, winning a de-bridged 306 and purple tip, a bottle of Rocky Top Vapor's
Dr. Pepper, a bottle of Halo Mystic donated by Sara, a wicked cool SS drip tip donated by Jennifer,
and both 510 cases from Desert Vapes in separate draws! Raffle on, Rafflemaster!

I won the CE Tank kit donated by Gary, which I was eyeing as soon as he put it on the raffle table.
I'm vaping on it as I type this, and it's glorious

.... Out Matt won a box of XXXL dual coil cartos

Barry won an eGo passthru and the Xmas pack from Desert Vapes

No raffle would be complete without Bottle Buddies, and Gary and Jennifer each won
one of these staggeringly handy little nylon packs

And Jennifer won the eGo starter kit, which was donated by Desert Vapes
with the request that it be re-gifted to a smoker

Great meet, everyone! Can't wait until next month's, hope to see you all then!

Howdy!!

I'm bummed I missed the meeting, it looks like it was a lot bigger turnout that the november meet.

Quick question about January's meet. What's the date? On this page it says the 27th but on reddit you told urnext it'll be the 20th....

 

[davelog]

We missed ya, bro! You caught us on a Saturday meet last time, those are always smaller. They're good for people with scheduling conflicts on Sundays so we do a couple a year, but Sundays are generally a larger crowd as a matter of rote.

It's apparently too late for me to edit the original post in this thread, but we've had to reschedule the January meet - SunUp has the room booked already. The January meet will be on Sunday Jan 20, 2013.

Another reminder to everyone that if you use google calendars, you can just add ours to yours!
