So for now, in the waiting area of the North Station Food Court (right below the arena!). But as I said, if it's nice we can move it outside to the park area next to the arena.

 

[pmidi]

Thank you to Paula, very generous.

 

[Princessroja]

Oh wow, huge thank you to Paula! How sweet of her!

 

[nguyhm]

Thank you to Paula.

 

[karne]

Wow, thankyou Paula!

 

[waxel]

Very thoughtful Paula!

 

[iluvtodd]

Thank you, Paula! What time is the Wednesday Meet Up?

 

[Mrs. P]

The meetup will be between the Short Dance and the Opening Creremony/Men's SP. Depending on how we get the pizza (pickup or we get it delivered), we'll have it on site by around 3:45-4 p.m.

Sure you can. Just get here early and grab a slice.

Okay an update on the brunch. I am having a hard time finding breakfast/brunch places in the North End--- there is one possibility. That said, I am finding quite a few places in Back Bay/Beacon Hill which are close to where many of us are staying. All place are accessible by the T. I'm going to call them tomorrow to see how they do with a group of 10 or more. (Right now we have 7 folks in our group). Will check back shortly.

^ Thanks, I mentioned to him about the get together. He's kind of shy, but can he kind of be sort of an "honorary" member? He's not one to post on social media or fs boards. If I'm with him, he should have some kind of comfort level, as he has met some of you!

Hey Mrs. P, can you count myself and my friend Linda in for the 10am brunch on Friday? I had to check with her before confirming (she's not on the boards here) but we are definitely in! I'm on the slack app for further updates re location, we're at the Wyndham so pretty close to TD Gardens and hopefully wherever is chosen for the brunch. Really looking forward to meeting everyone and we'll be there for the Wednesday pizza meet up too.

Sure. He's with you, so I'm cool with him being at the meetup!

Yes, I've put you on the list! I'm trying to find a place that's within walking or T distance of the hotels if not TD Garden. I think I can ensure a buffer so we can all get to the arena on time.

A few updates for you all!

** Paula, the Golden Skate website owner, has donated $200 for pizza for our meetup on Wednesday, March 30! Yay! She wanted to do this as a thank you for being part of the forum. So more reason to join us. Free pizza will be first-come, first-serve. There's plenty of other food choices in the North Station, so if you're still hungry there are other options We'll probably order 10 pizzas, so about 80 slices. If the weather's nice, we can actually meet at the park right next to the arena!

WOW!!! How incredible!!!! Thank you, Paula!! This is my first ever skating competition(well, besides for itsybitsy ones in Newfoundland ) and I am SOOO excited! This is going to be a great experience!!!

 

[justgottaskate]

Hey @CoyoteChris, can you add bostonnewfie next to justgottaskate, or onto the list? She's my Mom! She's not actually on this forum, but she is also a skating fan and we are attending the event together(our first one!!!!) If you didn't get it from her username, she is a Boston Newfie, so she is from Boston, but now she lives in Newfoundland. So we are both from Newfoundland and we will be attending all of the events

 

[nancela]

Count me in for the pizza meetup and Friday brunch. I'm at the Westin so a Back Bay location for brunch would work if nothing near the TD Garden.
