Ropeman is very busy today so I am posting the details.

People attending are invited to meet at CBID Headquarters (826 Monocacy)for a "special activity" at 2 PM SHARP on 3/1/03. Some of us cigar nuts will be on hand to say hi and have a goodie bag for cbidders. Please park in our upper parking lot on the Goepp St. side.

From there we are heading up to the Bethlehem Brew Works (which is only 2 blocks away) for the herf. We have been told they should be opening their downstairs early (pool table and separate private bar area). Food downstairs is prohibited, attempts are being made to get them to serve for us early but in any case the upstairs has a large pub area, so when the urge strikes we can go upstairs en masse or in groups. We can reserve tables only ½ to an hour ahead of time so some planning will be necessary once everyone is assembled.

Additionally we are trying to get some Cigar Reps to attend to be on hand to answer questions and have more samples. I will try to keep you abreast of these details. If you have any questions or need directions you can post here or email myself or ropeman.
We hope to see many attend and hope you all have a blast!!

Mike,

Thanks for all the help with setting this Herf up. The Herf is shaping up to be a fine event. I am looking forward to meeting everyone. My email is [email protected]

Sounds Great!!! Count me in !!

OH, is the "headquarters" the storefront or the warehouse? I know they are close, but different addresses.

We are meeting at the 826 Monocacy St. address.

Have you received that otterbox you ordered the other day low?

Not yet Mike. Possibly today!!! When I get stuff sent to work, I think they inspect and x-ray packages.

NOW STOP JACKING THIS THREAD !!! LOL :o)

I really wish Boston was closer to you guys. Sounds like it will be a great time.

Just got it Mike... Thanks.

Sounds great. So far it looks like I can make it.

Thanks for all the work/planning guys!

Please keep in mind:

Whoever dares to ask the "cello on or off" question will be forced to buy a round of shots for everyone in attendance. Failure to do so will result in the confiscation of your cigars as well as your removal from the HERF.

Do you guys have this herf on a regular basis? My move to D.C. is pretty much confirmed. I look forward to the next one!

Actually this is the first, we are hoping to make it a regular thing.

I would something to happen on a more regular basis. This is something we will talk about at the herf. Xrundog , if this one goes as good as it should we will have more. Just keep watch'n the boards.

dang, dang, dang. I am going to be in the state of PA, first week in Sharon, back to L.A. and the next week in Clearfield. I would love to do the HERF. Does anybody know what it takes to drive from Sharon to the CI area? The herf is the weekend in between my two trips. WHY ME!

Be sure to bring a snowmobile. X
