Contributor Post Created with Sketch. Ricochet Boston Area Gathering 11/11

 

At last! It’s happening! And rest assured that it will definitely be happening!!!

Announcing the 11/11 Ricochet Boston area gathering. Come celebrate Veterans’ Day with fellow patriots. The evening will include a panel presentation on the successes (or lack thereof) of the first year of the Trump presidency, with (among other dignitaries) Rob Long, our esteemed co-founder. Harvard Lunch Club fans will be happy to see Todd Feinburg and (yours truly) Mike Stopa.

The event will be held at the Burlington, MA Tavern in the Square at 100 District Ave., Burlington, MA from 7-10 pm. Come early and dine! Stay late and drink!

There is no charge for Ricochet members, but we will have a nominal fee of $10 for non-members which they can simply apply to their membership fee! So bring a friend or six!

An RSVP address will be set up to help us gauge the attendance.

See you there!

    I have updated RicochetMeetup.com and the Meetup group to show this meetup. Is anyone making Ricochet Meetup Passport Stickers? If nobody wants to, I can print some up and mail them to somebody who is going to this meetup.

    Sigh.

    Too bad. This Masshole will be on the west coast.

    As unofficial Ricochet meetup hostess (quote from the Reagan Library event, “It’s okay. I’ll take full responsibilty.”) I’ll be there with name tags and a warm welcome. @randyweivoda I will pm you my snail mail address for the stickers, if you would be so kind as to make them.

    Ya’ll, this is going to be fun, so please think about joining us. I’m planning to get a local hotel/AirBnB and would be happy to share.

    Wow @michaelstopa, what the hell do you have on Rob to get him to come out to MA?

    Since this is right down the street from my house, I should be able to make it.

    Oh, you’ll dig my last episode…

    That’s beautiful, EJ. Any chance we could have permission to use that design for the Passport Stickers?

    I’ll probably be in Vegas, but will be there if I don’t run 13.1 miles across a neon-lit desert.

    I’m trying to juggle my schedule with a client in Worcester to justify joining y’all — put me down as a maybe.

    Is the RSVP address mentioned in the OP being set up? (Or did it already go up and I’m missing it?)

    You neglected to note that the ladies accompanying you in the photo are not particularly representative of female pulchritude levels in the Commonwealth, regrettably; out West is best.

    Michael and Todd,

    Sorry that I won’t be in MA at this time (I’m one of about barely 8 or 9 conservatives who hail from Lexington) — I’ll raise a glass to you and everyone from my perch over here in Tokyo.

    Attendees should note in advance that a short ways up the street from the Gathering venue is a pretty active trauma-care hospital (Lahey Clinic Burlington), so be prepared for frequent ambulance-siren blasts from only several yards away.

    I’ll be there in spirit and will forward this to my New England friends – especially the liberal ones – I hope they play the Cheers song on the juke box…..
