Niagara, ON Grape and Wine 2006

Awesome, looking forward to a good time just like last year.

 

MadKid may have something else to suit up in, and might not be "Anakin-ing". See this link for more...

Yeah... still need an undertunic, I know... But the pants I got. What? You've never seen a Jedi in Jeans before?

 

I seem to be missing the part of this thread that is posting the details parade time etc... can someone point me to the right page?
Thanks

Will need details for this if I am to wrangle up some of the Syracuse folks

 

What will everyone be doing after the parade?
Coming from Pittsburgh - TRADMIC and SuperChill

 

Last year & in previous years, there's an afterparty, with food, conversation, cards. It's a great time to meet, some new people.

 

That's a good question! I just skimmed back through the thread and didn't notice the times either.
Somewhere in here it's posted that the parade starts at 11am, but line-up/road closures begin at 9am.

EDIT: Just found them - with my board setting the details are in the 15th & 16th posts down the page on page 2.

These are the directions that I have from last year (from Rochester to the hall).

Take 1-490 W to I-90 W (aka the Thruway) - (16.9 miles)

Take I-90 W until Exit 50 (aka I-290 W) ? (41.5 miles)

Take the I-290 W for 9.8 miles then merge onto I-190 N towards Niagara Falls

Take the I-190 N for 15.1 miles then it turns into the Queenstown-Lewiston Bridge

After customs, take Route 450 W towards QEW ? (5.4 miles)

The 405 W merges in with the QEW, remain on the QEW for 3.3 miles until Exit 44.

Take Exit 44 (aka RR-48 towards Niagara Street/Service Road)

Turn Right onto Russell Avenue

Turn Left onto Catherine Street

Turn Left onto Welland Avenue

Turn Right onto Court Street

Follow Court Street past Church Street and King Street.
The hall is on your Left, on the corner of Court and Centre Streets.

Are these still correct?

thanks Nicky....

I may only show up to the after party, have somehting in the morning.. can go afterwards though

 

Yeah as you probably already noticed

jeff swfreakjpb

jeffrey star-wars-freak-jpb

both me from rochester

Wish I could bring food but probably not a good thing over the border and what I would bring needs to be cold. If there is soda or other beverages then maybe someone should bring cups and ice if the soda is not going to be refridgerated. I remember having warm beverages in the past. If no one has already purchesed them I will bring cups if need be. Please PM me either way. If there is anything else needed that I can bring over, let me know.

 

Hey, Bump me to a maybe. I'm free that day. I just need to hunt for one of my old SW costumes. Most likely Padme.

 

Count me in as well.
Is it the same hall as was used for the YJN Christmas party back in January?
I can bring green salad. I'll do the same one as I did for the Christmas party - It makes a lot and people seemed to like it.

Does anyone happen to have an extra female costume that could be borrowed for the day? And before anyone asks, NO it's not for me!

 

What size Andrew? We may have a padme costume up for grabs...

 

Something medium sized would do

 

Mindy was asking if anyone is coming as Bariss? She's trying to pick out her costume.

PM sent Debby

 

ok, its going be kind of rainy, no idea what that will mean at this point but I will prepare for you guys,

Can I get a list of costumes from you guys.


and also can I bring my playstation, I have the new Star Wars legos game, its fun for everyone

 

Well yes the forecast calls for a light rain, but lets remember that weather can change very quicky (for better or worse).

 

All games are welcome but keep in mind there is NOT a tv available.

I don't have a list of costumes...sorry Beezel.

 

HI Doc_Bev...

Yes those directions are correct. I will PM you my cell # in case you have any problems. If there is anyone else who wants it in case of emergency, please PM me and I will get back to you. Also if there is anyone else that needs directions or anything else, please let me know.


Just an FYI...

I did a count of the adults and counted 38. I have ordered the Beef and will order the buns tomorrow.

 

Sorry, but since I'm not coming the night before like I usually do, what's the address for the hall, so I can get directions? I remember vaguely, but actually knowing which exit from the QEW to take would be nice!

 

PM sent Janet.

 

I will bringing Meatballs done up in some way or another for the dinner afterwards, and also does anyone have a spare lightsaber I can borrow? I have recently been overhauling my room hence I don't know where most of this stuff has gone

 

Do you need just the hilt to hang off a belt or like a toy one?

 

We will be bringing cake and some other form of main dish food to be determined tomorrow.

 

Thanks for the directions, Stephanie.
I'm not sure if I can stay for lunch or not, but if I decide to, and if I have time tomorrow night to make it, I'll bring a hash brown casserole.

 

And, I'm not going to be making it this year, I had offers for costumes, but My job needs me alot, ie I'm working 10 hours on saturday.

Sorry guys I miss you all so much! Maybe we get together soon? And I can bring my bf?

Love you all
