I think David L.'s description is the appropriate title, regardless of where we meet.<br /> <br /> God forbid, we should take that large of a crowd back to Quark's, would we call it the "Quark's Party"? Hopefully not.<br /> <br /> I think it it should be held AT "The Beach" until we're sick of it....for several reasons.<br /> <br /> 1. It's unbelievably convenient to the convention center.<br /> 2. It's large enough.<br /> 3. The second floor room that we use is private with a bar, dance floor, PA system, etc.<br /> <br /> But even if it is NOT held at The Beach, I think the reference to "Beach Party" fits our group at this point regardless of where it is held. We now have a historical use of the phrase. <br /> <br /> And besides, Las Vegas is kinda like "the beach"...without the water. <span class="e_shades" title="B-)"><span class="e__">B-)</span> </span> <hr /><a name="a3169_70"></a><p><b>From: Stunt Engraver (DGL)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=3169.70">#70</a>]<br /> 2 Apr 2006<br /><b>To: gt350ed</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=3169.69">#69</a>] 3 Apr 2006</p> Ed,<br /> <br /> I agree that "The Beach" is so conveniently located, with all the ammenities, that we'd need a serious reason to change venues.<br /> <br /> We occupied a small portion of the overall available space, making a much larger party, easy to accomodate, if necessary.<br /> <br /> The special events coordinator, Barry, was very easy to work with and very flexible. <hr /><a name="a3169_71"></a><p><b>From: Cody (BOBTNAILER)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=3169.71">#71</a>]<br /> 2 Apr 2006<br /><b>To: Stunt Engraver (DGL)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=3169.70">#70</a>] 2 Apr 2006</p> <p>The "Beach Party" name sounds great, no matter the venue.</p> <p>We enjoyed the place, except for the cost of drinks.
