[txtumbleweed]

Has anyone contacted James at mount baker Vapor in Bellingham? He might want to get involved.

This sounds like something I would be interested in, as well as a couple of people I turned onto vaping. I'm going to be following this thread to see what comes of it.

Jagellpuff - we might want to note also if folks are bringing spouses/friends to get a better idea of #s ....

 

[DeviantDe]

Very true Blu.
I have one confirmed coming from Ellensburg, only condition being that I have to pick them up LOL, possibly 2 if the spouse wants to tag along.
And possibly one from MT Vernon depending on what date this all happens.
They just aren't part of the forums, darn technophobes LOL

 

[Jagellpuff]

Hey Blu and Deviant, I think it will be safe to assume at least +1 for each name listed. If this is tied in with the next Vaporium's Vapemeet we could easily reach over 100 in attendance. That said, I am not the one who started this thread and wish to not hijack it, only suggest if The Vaporium plans one I will notify everyone on ECF. But it may turn out that we could get enough ECF'rs to have an ECF Vapemeet. Guess we will see where this goes!

Jagell - well De is talking maybe +4 or 5, and I am gonna be a single .... so who knows how many it would be.

Washvap....I'm crushed that you didn't PM me about this. I thought you were my friend. I just found this thread today.

J/K..at least I found it.

Here's my 2 cents. If the meet is big with vendors I'm in. Since there's already a vape meet in Tacoma coming up at the Vaporium with vendors I assume, then I think that would be the easiest way to go. You wouldn't have to find a location or a place to hold it or the stress of putting something like this together. Tacoma is quite a long drive for the north enders but it isn't any farther for the easterners and closer for the Oregonians and I'm the only one on this side of the pond (I think) so you don't have to consider the westerners. The north enders could stay at a motel if they didn't want to drive back the same day. Organizing a meet with vendors where you can vape and drink would be a huge undertaking. Yes drink. What fun is a meet without beer?

I also think a poll would be a good idea. I'm done now.

 

[DeviantDe]

Well, If it involves being held at a bar or a large focus on alcohol then I know at least one of my people won't be going as he is in AA and I know he isn't comfortable being around alcohol at this point in time.
Also are there any under 21 that want to attend? That could be an issue as well.

I didn't think the Vaporium meet was a larger meet with vendors. Does anyone know for sure??

 

[Jagellpuff]

The last one that The Vaporium did she invited the guys from Volcano Vapor Cafe to come. Kim does a raffle of kits, juice, etc. with all ticket proceeds going to Wounded Warrior Project. So yes in that regards vendors are included, but no sales pitch, its all about vapers chilling with vapers talking about vaping.

No emphasis is on drinking, however finding a location bars make it easier as no restrictions with vaping in Pierce County. But this is something to consider for non-drinkers and peeps under 21.

As for setting it up like Vape Bash or Vapefest, and bringing in multiple vendors, I got no suggestions for that, but I will say that would be cool!!

I am not sure what Washvap intended with starting this thread, but if this grows who knows!

[tybin]

I'm not interested in staying at a motel and i'm not sure my fellow whatcom countians would want to either

 

[9ball_AJ]

I think we should plan a meet for the north end, Edmonds, Mountlake Terrace, Lynnwood, etc. If we get a good turnout we can think about joining with the South end folks for a larger meet up later in the year.

 

[BluSwatch]

That gets up close to 100 miles for me ... that's a bit too far.

Well, let's keep the discussion open. I am willing to drive a ways, not sure about an overnight stay unless the event is large enough.

 

[tmcase]

For me too including a 1/2 hr ferry ride. Since Lisa, Wayne & Tiff can't make the drive to Tacoma and the Lynnwood area is too far for me I guess I'm out. I hope you all have a good time.

 

[washvap]

Sorry about that Terry. When I got the pm's and decided to make the thread. I just basically made it on the spot waited to see who showed interest. I'm not online as much as I used to be. Also, I wanted to see how this thread would turn out. Glad that Jag and others have kept this thread going for me in my absence.

Thanks for the advice. It would definitely make it easier for people in the south sound/Oregonians to have this meet.

[washvap]

To make things a bit more organized. I'm going to separate everyone on the list according to city and state. As well as add a category for possible venues and volunteers willing to help with this meet. If you would like to add your name to the list. It would be a great help. Thanks for everyone's involvement and cooperation.

This is the information I gathered when I went through the thread. We will start doing polls pretty soon after the list reaches past 25.

Please add possible venues that are willing to host a meet. This will give people more options and a better idea if they would like to attend or not.

I know Cat is near Tacoma, I am willing to assist however possible.

One thought on the Vaporium as a venue. It is small. No more than 7-10 people. Plus there is a regular flow of customers.

However Pierce County's laws are favorable for 18+ establishments.
