CCom Chicago Herf 17 - Dec 8 -10

avengethisavengethis Posts: 5,689 ✭✭✭✭✭
Well we have the dates finalized for the annual Chicago Herf.  We have the ability to use Casa from Dec 8-10.

Please sign up if you are planning on attending.  Below is some additional information.

- Casa is BYOBC (Bring your own booze and cigars) however it is a B&M and we get access to their private members lounge so we need to be respectful and make sure we patronize the shop as well.

- There are a few hotels that guys usually stay at, others will have to chime in on where they stay but a good size group usually stays at the Best Western in Countryside, IL.  It is 5 minutes from the shop.  

- If you are flying in, speak up and there are lots of us that have vehicles that can help coordinate rides and things of that nature.

If I forgot anything please help fill in the details.

Here is a link to last year to see how it went down https://forum.cigar.com/discussion/896421/annual-chicago-herf-2016/p1

    Might I suggest a group may want to consider an air bnb.

    Splitting the price, and paying for Uber would still be very cheap per person.

    There is no hoping; you  either do or you don't do.

    CA has worse taxes than Chicago, but they do have better weather.

    @avengethis not looking good this year. Moving and being unemployed really don't play well in making it to Chicago this year. 
  • RhamlinRhamlin Posts: 9,022 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Well don’t look like I will be making it. My daughter will be coming up to stay with me that weekend.

    Would love to come herf and meet you crazy dudes in person but unfortunately there's just no room in the budget for a trip to Chicago right before Christmas. Have a good time...I expect pics :)
