| Sesto senso choice | Nov 23, 2006 |
I think Sesto Senso is a very expensive restaurant, I remember when I attended the last Powwow in 2005.some interpreters mentioned that was very expensive.
I think that we should organize it in a cheaper and bigger restaurant.
I remembered one of the Washington Powwows was organized in a museum.
Perhaps we could try to do it also in a museum.

Which one? Aren't museams only open till 5:00 pm. Besides, I would still like to get a drink during our get together. By the way, I organized the very first Powwow in DC in 2001. We had it at Brickskellers, which is a beer pub in DC. It carries about two hundred brands of beer from all over the world, so it was fun for us, considering we were all internationals. We had a large table in the back room, so it was relatively quiet and fun.

| Museum Powwow | Nov 24, 2006 |
Hi Ksenia
The powwow in Washington was organized in the National art gallery of Washington and was organized by Monika Coulson in July 24 2004.

| Sounds wonderful | Nov 24, 2006 |
The National Gallery sounds great! But then we are talking about daytime, since it definitely closes at 5:00 pm. The National Gallery would be a great place for a Powwow. I think we are looking for something more festive for the Holiday Powwow, but we should keep the National Gallery as an option for future Powwows.

| Join NCATA Luncheon? | Nov 26, 2006 |
Should we just join the NCATA luncheon then? I am planning on going anyway. Sounds like it's all under control there, all we need to do is pay and show up. It will be a great promotion for Proz.com!

| I can't make it on the 3rd | Nov 26, 2006 |
It's my daughter's birthday party and was planned a long time ago. Besides, my husband is "booked" to babysit on Dec. 9th . I'd be very sorry to miss this oportunity to meet you, but if it's the best date for everyone else...
On the other hand I don't mind if things take place early at the museum or anywhere else. I don't mind the time, early or late.

On the other hand I don't mind if things take place early at the museum or anywhere else. I don't mind the time, early or late. What I am looking for is not especially to party (it can come with the package of course) but to meet people, as it's my first Powwow. I hope we can find something that fits more people, as I'm astonished that so few people are going. Is it because of the holidays? Should it be re-scheduled for January? ▲ Collapse

| Here is another idea | Nov 27, 2006 |
We can meet for a morning coffee on Saturday Dec. 3, say around 10:00 am and then proceed to the luncheon at Occidental together.

| Sorry about the confusion | Nov 27, 2006 |
I suggested earlier that may be we could join the NCATA luncheon on December 3 (this Saturday) instead of organizing our own event. I also suggested in my previous post that we could meet earlier this Saturday for a coffee and then go the NCATA luncheon which is taking place at Occidental Restaurant downtown at 12:00 PM this Saturday. Your quick responses are appreciated, since we are kind of running out of time.

| That would be all right | Nov 27, 2006 |
I could go at 10:00 AM on the 3rd, and leave the meeting early.

| should we parhaps do this in January? | Nov 28, 2006 |
There's no way I can come on Sunday; it's too short notice. Actually December will be difficult for me period, as there will be a lot of competition with holiday events. My suggestion: let's do this in January. What do you guys think?

| That's OK with me | Nov 28, 2006 |
We might have more people attending .

The reason why I suggested this Sunday is because it's the NCATA luncheon day, so I thought some of you would be attending this important event anyway. So we could kill two rabbits with one stone. However, December 9 date for Proz Powwow is still on. Whether you can attend or not, I am not going to postpone it till January or some other month just because some folks cannot make it this month. So, in my next e-mail, I will post the time and place for December 9th Powwow. If you can't make it...
