Creation Stargate Convention Vancouver - 27.04.-29.04.2012

Official Final GateWorld Dinner Sign-Up

Earl's -- 4361 Kingsway (just around the block from the hotel)

It's officially time to start planning for what will (sadly) be the final official GateWorld dinner in Vancouver. Our home for the past several years (Sammy J Peppers) closed their doors, so I was tasked with finding a new and last home for us that was nearby and could accomodate all of us. It wasn't an easy job.

Prices for menu items are mostly comparable to previous years. Attending the dinner does not mean you HAVE to eat. The potential size of this year's group -- between forum members, special guests (some are con guests, some are NOT), and Stargate crew -- means that eating may need to be staggered no matter how we do it. Rest assured though, between the spacious lounge area we'll have, the cast and crew drop-ins I'm setting up, potential prize giveaways and the later closing time (11pm)...we're all going to make this final dinner one not to forget.

To sign up, simply reply to this post, add your forum name in the appropriate area, and remove the quote tags. It's as simple as that. Please also indicate if you plan on bringing guests (+1, +2, etc.). Extra guests are fine, but only forum members can win any potential prizes we giveaway.

Finally, Earl's has stated that giving them a menu list of our choices is unnecessary. However, as an aid to both them and us, we're doing it anyway. After reviewing the menu off their site, please PM Mamasue9 with your items. She'll be keeping tabs over the next 10 weeks.

Can't wait to see all of you in Stargate's hometown one final time!

Hey guys,

Anyone still need a roomate for the convention. Even though I live in North Vancouver. I find that it SO MUCH easier to stay at the hotel. Especially as it is shaping up to be a VERY busy weekend and Sunday is a ***** for transit here on the North Shore. Let me know. I had messages out to at least 2 people and nothing came of this . Please let me know ASAP thanks.

The last response was for Friday night only. I need for the whole weekend (Thursday to Monday).

Hey AnnieS. I will know more in a couple of weeks, but I'm already booked at the Holiday Inn with one or two or three tentative roomies. Nobody can really confirm until mid-February though. Let me know if you don't have anybody by Simon Pegg Day. (Valentine's Day for the rest of the world )

[Krisz]

Seating plan.

[AnnieS]

Thanks Geo. Will let you know. Am willing to sleep on a cot andd the HI would be cheaper and closer to transit.

Ok folks...now that the new year is here I can finally start to put convention time at the front of my brain. Yay!

So I have signed up for the after party...but whats the deal with the pre-convention get together? There may a post about it in the last few pages but just thought I'd ask instead of searching.

And finally, if anyone has any questions about Vancouver stuff (like transit, attractions, restaurants etc) I live just outside the main city (in steveston where they filmed "Nightwalkers") so i have free advice

I arrive about 6:30pm on Thursday evening, and I was wondering if there was a gathering somewhere for a meetup dinner..

Historically, the evening prior to the con starting, we've usually gone across the street to Red Robin, if anyone is game. It's close by, cheap, and shouldn't interfere with anyone attempting early pre-registration.

That sounds great. Do we need a reservation?

They don't accept reservations. We'll have to go in as a group and they will clear an area for us. Red Robin is very familiar with Stargate convention attendees.
