Calgary/Edmonton Poly Meet?

[Asher]

Wasabi!

Potential dates are:

Saturday, October 15th (Calgary)
Thursday, October 20th (Calgary)
Friday, November 25th (Calgary)
Monday, December 19th (Edmonton)
Saturday, December 31st (Calgary) *cough*
Monday, January 23rd (Edmonton)
Thursday, March 16th (Edmonton)
Saturday, April 1st (Edmonton)

The reason for the dates above should be obvious.

Who is in? I am available to go to either city (can drive), but weekends obviously work best for that. I can also take anyone from Calgary with me if the meet is in Edmonton, as long as you don't mind sharing my car with me for the ride.

I can also ping Zylka and see if he's up for attending.

For those not geographically inclined, I have attached a map. Draw your attention to the top left of the map.

The visit will also include immersion in Canadian culture for one night, involving a pub/bar and a hockey game. Not just any hockey game, but a Battle of Alberta hockey game. Blood will be spilled!

I thought that it was more over northdakota/montana then montana/idaho

Depends on the date of the meet. I might be able to get away at New Year's but not during the school year.

I have quite a few friends now that reside in Calgary, so that could be an interesting trip.

Hmm... sounds like a good excuse for a road trip...

[Provost Harrison]

I can do Edmonton, it's not that far away

[Tingkai]

I'll be in Canada visit in late March so I'm going to try to see the Vancouver-Edmonton game. Should be great now that Edmonton has a decent team. Then in Toronto, I'll try to see a Leafs game, probably against Buffalo.

Edmonton in January, yeah!

Air Canada used to have really cheap flights from the UK to Edmonton and Winnipeg in January. I wonder why

[Asher]

Do the flights still go to Edmonton from the UK? One would think they'd just go to Calgary by now.

[Asher]

Well?
