Sunday July 23, 4pm, at Pips & Bounce (833 SE Belmont St)! Be there or be un-pingy!
I would like to ping pong, but no days really work for me anymore.

The Green Dragon had always been owned by Rogue, it just wasn't branded as such. From what I read, it sounds like they have fewer taps and maybe better food. Cascade and Liberty aren't that far from them too.

Last time we held it on a Saturday evening at 7pm and I was thinking of doing the same this time (unless someone objects). What weekend would work for everyone?

The 22nd would work for us, but could we start earlier, like say 4pm?

Ah, I wasn't paying attention! cortex and I can't make it on the 22nd. 23rd could work, though.

If it's a Sunday and y'all are still pinging and ponging after 6pm, we may head over.

So I am meeting a cat (!) earlier that day that my partner and I may be adopting (!!), but I think I can show up for part of this. (we aren't adopting a cat on the spot, just seeing how we get along with our very cat-allergic friend's lil' guy).

I don't think this is going to beat the excitement of meeting a cat (!), but I heard a rumor that OMSI has built the world's largest vinegar and baking soda volcano, and it's set to erupt at 3pm on Sunday. It's 34 feet high, and if all is successful they'll break the current record (27 feet). As a geologist, it seems like I really ought to stop by and see that happen! That's pretty close to Pips and Bounce, though, so I don't think it will make me late.

The volcano was pretty great! We're cooling off in a coffee shop, we'll head towards Pips and Bounce soon.

I suspect we will continue to ping and pong past 6!

Thanks everyone for coming out! I think we both pinged and ponged successfully.
Now... Let's not wait a whole year to do it again!

Thanks for the ping and pong alike!

The Green Dragon is now owned by Rogue so it wouldn't be the same as it was last time.
