Socially Speaking

HELLO ALL!

This is the area of the website dedicated to the “and Recreation” side of the club…Here you will find all of our social events, including the weekly TGIF schedule, monthly (at least we try) group dinners, and any other “social” special community or area event that club members organize and offer to fellow RSRC family members! How many times have you gone to a restaurant, show or event and thought, “this would be great to share with a bunch of friends!” Well next time you get that urge give me a call at 827-5354 or email me at ahottoddie@hotmail.com and we will see what we can do to get your idea on what proves to be a very busy calendar. As I have said many times in the past, if it happening in this area, you can bet someone in this club is doing it…

See ya soon!

New Year Eve Party
December 31, 2008


Ongoing

"TGIF" (Thank God It's Fun!)   Thank goodness it’s Friday! We all love Friday’s and what better time to get together with friends when the work week is done and we have time to relax!

Our TGIF’s are weekly social gatherings held at different locations each week. People start trickling in at between 6 and 7 p.m. We usually are heading home by 9 or 10. Some people like to have dinner as a group and those groups form spontaneously on Friday night.

We never know who or how many will attend. This makes it somewhat of a nightmare for the bar or restaurant we are visiting, because our numbers vary from 20 or so people up to 60 or more. If you know of a place that has a large enough bar to take us, and would like to have a TGIF there, please contact the new Social Director.

TGIF Schedule:

October 2008 TGIF Schedule


Oct 24: Peppermill Terrace Bar, 2707 S Virginia, Reno – Beverage manager Kathy promises they will be ready for us this time, and we will have plenty of space at the bar…I will verify with her before we go if they are planning any drink specials for us…Also, last time we were there, some went across the way to a fine meal at Biscotti…

Oct 31: Halloween Party, Tom and Cheryl Dewey’s House, 4365 Lloyd Way, Reno – The Dewey’s open their “digs” for this year’s “fright fest”…Bring your own drinks, and dress in your costume if you dare…See details else ware in the newsletter, or call Tom and Cheryl at 824-0243

November 2008 TGIF Schedule

Nov7: No TGIF – We are not scheduling a TGIF for this night, so get signed up to work the Ski Swap, because that is where everybody will be….

Nov 14: Legends Bar and Grill, 6015 S Virginia, Reno– Owner Mike and his crew are very excited to have us back! Located in the strip mall just north of the new Whole Foods. Excellent menu, so plan on having dinner also!

Nov 21: Orozco , inside John Asquaga’s Nugget, Sparks – This one is a specialrequest of my wife and our President. The bar in front of Café Orozco usually has music, and is a quaint setting. This was the first RSRC event I ever attended more than 5 years ago…

Nov 28: Crazy Wieners Sports Bar and Grill, 4840 Mill St, Reno – Just ¼ mile east of Rock, this new venue was suggested by member Cal Casey, not surprisingly because they feature karaoke on Friday’s starting at 7PM. If you don’t sing, even when intoxicated, don’t let that stop you from joining us! You can laugh and cheer for those daring enough to try…

Dec 5: Reno Mountain Sports, 155 E Moana, Reno – Our annual discount night at Reno Mountain Sports…Dave and his staff welcome us back and will provide light snacks…Bring a bottle of wine ( white only,please!) to share and they will do the rest…Visit, shop, and enjoy the evening!


General Meeting  
Second Tuesday of each month.

You are invited to join us for our General Meetings, held on the 2nd Tuesday of each month at 7:00pm (6:00 mixer) at Amelia's Restaurant & Flightline Bar, 655 South Rock Blvd., Reno.  It’s informal with announcements, guest speakers, and socializing. If you're a new member, new to the area, or just curious, it's one of the best ways to see who we are, and for us to meet you.

Many arrive early to enjoy socializing during the mixer, and/or have dinner before the meeting, which lasts about one hour. The bar faces huge windows overlooking the openness over the airport, and into the view facing Mt. Rose. It's one of Reno's best kept secrets!

FYI: In July, General Meeting and BBQ will be at Wildcreek Golf course. Look for the BBQ pavilion on the west side of the golf course.
