BigBill54 Wed, 02 Dec 2009 02:14:34 GMT http://www.cogeocaching.net/index.php?name=News&file=article&sid=19 We are starting to lay plans for a 2008 Christmas gathering. December 11th is our goal. This is the normal 2nd Thursday date for the monthly COG Cache & Coffee. Last year we had about 30 people. We need SOME idea of how many would plan to attend this year. One location can handle 35 to 40 people. It's an Italian Restaurant in uptown Westerville. If the group get larger than that, we'll need to find another location. Post a reply with the number of adults and children and also suggestions for a larger place if needed. Thanks, COG Wed, 03 Dec 2008 13:25:29 GMT http://www.cogeocaching.net/index.php?name=News&file=article&sid=18 2trux wrote: We're moving our monthly Cache & Coffee to a Panera Bread in Westerville.
