2025 Skyrise Edmonton Meetup

[northlands]

The last few iterations of the Skyrise meetups have been a lot of fun and overall a great time getting to know the faces behind the people we argue with online (I think it was @YEG imagineer who once said "I'm meeting with my internet friends again")

This time around, lets do a spot downtown. I was thinking Rocky Mountain Icehouse but open to any suggestions. Likely meet around 6:30 PM.

I have some dates on the attached poll, vote and we'll figure out a date come the new year.

Hope to see everyone there!

EDIT: For dates, the following have Oilers games (can't edit existing poll choices)

• Thursday, January 16 - Oilers Away Game
• Tuesday, January 21 - Oilers Home Game
• Monday, January 27 - Oilers Home Game
• Wednesday, January 29
• Friday, January 31
• Tuesday, January 14
• Monday, January 20
• Wednesday, January 22

Thanks for initiating this! Rocky works for me.

Oilers away games January 16. Home games January 21, 27. If that matters. Rocky plays all the games in their side room.

Thanks, really good point I didn't think of. I added a few extra dates for non Oilers games, probably be more quiet inside those nights so might work better.

^Rocky big space so game nights might not be the worst idea.

Might be a long shot, but would a date in late Dec work? The dog days after Christmas?

Not yet... doesn't seem to be a lot of interest this time around.

I wonder if we could get MacLab to host us up in their new Parks for a tour and grab some wobblies after nearby?

^ What a great idea! Maybe MacLab could even be enticed to cater some light refreshment.

I’d be up for that…

Of course I’d be up for most options most afternoons/evenings.

What are the odds you might join us for any of them and see some of what’s going on first hand?

It depends on timing -- I have an upcoming (as yet unscheduled) meeting with CPKC Rail in Calgary and if the two can be somewhat synced then I would be there. I would like to stretch an Edmonton tour into a few days to catch up with family and friends and to go on a photo junket around the City.

^count me in as I am a photographer.


*I will inquire with Maclab.
