Northern California ChowFest, Sunday, September 26, 2010

Post by kingalls »

Northern California ChowFest time! \:D/

The annual Northern California ChowFest will take place in San Francisco on Sunday, September 26, 2010 – so mark your calendars now. This is a couple months later than usual but this was the earliest that the planning committee could schedule.

Image

We look forward to seeing our ChowFest friends and Chowdren from previous years as well as new Chow friends we have yet to meet.
If you would like to attend this year’s ChowFest, please send a PM to Kodi’s mom, SWANCIN. Please include your email address.

Just a reminder, if you have NOT already RSVP'd to an Evite.com invitation about ChowFest 2010, it's just around the corner. \:D/ Please RSVP to that, as soon as possible, so we get a fairly accurate people and chow count. If you are interested in attending, send me a PM and I'll get you the details.

Hope to see you there!

Chow for Now-Cindy and Kodi

Hi! I've already RSVPd and am very excited to go. I'm starting to look into hotels since I am from out of town but I am not exactly sure where this is. Could someone please provide a picture of a map of where it is. Also, any recommendations on pet friendly places to stay near by?

Hi Everyone!

Don't forget to "sign up" for ChowFest if you haven't already! It's just around the corner. Note, I've received a couple of PM's in the last couple of days (and have replied), but if you PM me regarding your interest in attending, please include your email address in that message.

Thanks!

ChowFest - Woo Hoo!!

I just saw the weather report and it is supposed to be beautiful on Sunday. Almost 80 degrees in SF. This may be the first chowfest where jackets won't be required. Good thing chowfest wasn't last weekend. It rained at my house.

It was a lot of fun! New Chows plus all of our favorites from last year or the year before...It was tough to do the Memorial this year - too many have crossed the Bridge.
