Okay I heard you the first time.

I have never organized one but if there is interest I will try. Food, Beer, Sports on tv or what ever.

I'd be interested.

Okay. well first we will see how many people are interested and then we will see where everyone is. I heard of a place called world of beers in naperville if you are into that sort of thing. There is also a few cigar lounges that let you bring booze and we can do something like that. I am not a big drinker but I have no issues going to a bar.

I am in.

If the World of Beers in Naperville is like the one in Evanston, it is worth the trip.

There is always the old stand by location (Schaumburg Hooters) as well. Or one of the various Tilted Kilts.

Okay let me make some calls after the holidays and try to book something. I will say if anyone is interested in the summer I will do a pig roast at my house or at the park district if the winter greet goes well.

This will be open to all IL members and their families. I will call world of beers and the tilted kilt once I have numbers.

These businesses do not allow concealed carry. Why would you go there?

Funny, I was just reminded of the get together I attended at the Schaumburg Hooters, seems like it was about 8 years ago, give or take.

Anyway, I'm in.

Well, When is everyone available? Would it be better to do it after the superbowl?  If it warms up we can do it outside somewhere. Possibly the 1st weekend in March.

Interested although my schedule rather sucks. Put out some dates and I'll see if I can attend. Hopefully they're in the second half of February after my 4th and last (as long as I hit that coveted 75) CPA exam

I attended a tactical pistol class at the ISRA Range in Bonfield a few weeks back and one of the guys was wearing a BFL hat.  Only time I have seen an arfcomer in the wild.

It would be great if we could have a picnic/shoot get-together somewhere.

Keep it simple at first, indoor eatery so we can sit, gab and get to know. We can then see if we can make it a regular occurrence with shoots involved.

Interested depending on dates and my work schedule...

Here at the ranch? Details por favor!

Cshelk has hosted a few summer shoots recently but it is pretty far west and I had schedule conflicts. Plus hot as hell out too IIRC. Hopefully you're closer.

Post-Super Bowl would give more people time to clear schedules. Let me know date and location.

Can't be warmer weather and a winter meet and greet. But how about a raincheck for June or July ?

Anyone seen WoodButcher? Can't have a blast fest without his Chili.
