Club Events 2008

Trip List Calendar

2008-11-22 : COC - Ptarmigan Cirque, and CCC - Money $$
CCC - Money $$ -- Music Appreciation Night

Arrive between 6:30 and 7:00 PM for introductions and to get settled in. We'll start the music selections at 7:00 with an introduction of our songs. The music will be “mixed” according to my opinion of how it flows best – your songs may not necessarily all be together on the CDs. We will listen during the music, taking a break to visit, a potty break, and snack refills between the CDs.

Everyone must contribute 10 to 12 minutes of music for the evening. This evening's theme is Money $$; please submit music that fits this theme. Given the recent roller coaster ride of most things financial, please feel free to be a irreverent as you wish with your Money $$ choices.


Please be aware that there is a cat who will be helping me coordinate this event. If you have allergies this may not be the event for you.

Thanks to everyone for all of their great music contributions and for all of the yummy snacks. I am very disapointed, however, that there was no money with the treats! HA ha. Em

2008-11-29 : COC - Barrier Fire Lookout via Prairie View Trail - Slow but Steady Pace


2008-12-03 : CCC - Volunteer Social and Info
This event is for current CCC volunteers - those who have their "star" (to come out, meet one another and socialize), hopeful volunteers (to come get information about coordinating events for the CCC), and those who just want to hang out in a great venue for an hour or two with fun people.

There will be no official club business discussed at this event but if you are considering coordinating events for the CCC, and want some information, come on out to meet the club's brand-new Volunteer Coordinator, Michelle H.(and meet some of our current volunteers).

We hope both current and interested future volunteers will take this opportunity to meet and share ideas in a relaxed, social setting.


Open only to CCC volunteers, active members (2+ events) who are interested in volunteering with us and really neato people.



2008-12-10 : CCC - Buffet Lunch at Ganga and CBC Interview
Share a lovely Indian buffet lunch and represent the CCC in our interview with CBC!

CBC would like to cover a CCC event and have requested a weekday/daytime time slot (they're unable to do evenings/weekends). Let's do buffet lunch at Ganga!

One of the best values for Indian food downtown! Lunch buffet under $15 or you can do a buffet takeaway for $10.



2008-12-17 : CCC - Christmas with Rembetika Hipsters at Pegasus
Enjoy awesome Greek food and the music of the Rembetika Hipsters at Pegasus.

The owner has recreated a Greek atmosphere partly with hanging vine baskets, the mural and various pottery knickknacks, but mostly with the staff's devotion to making sure customers have a good time.

If you're unsure what to order, try the delicious appetizer platter which features about a dozen different types of Greek delicacies. Some of these include stuffed grape leaves, chicken wings, saganaki and tzatziki with fresh pita bread. They also have a good selection of white and red house wines.

CCC policy is to add 5% GST plus 18% gratuity to the bill. If you do not agree with this policy, please do not register for this event.
In the almost ten years that I've been following these guys around, they have never disappointed, and tonight they raised the bar even further. Even sans Ben, who we all know is THE reason why I started following them at all, they absolutely shone. How, you may ask... how could the Rembetika Hipsters possibly get any better? I would ask the same question. With the warmth of Nick, the professionalism and backbone of Allen, and the mind-blowing talent of Lincoln, Jonathan and Malcolm... how could they possibly get any better? The answer, it would seem, is to add Morag the Cellist, and I'm not just saying that because I've always loved the Cello, but because, well... I've always LOVED the Cello! Thanks to everyone who braved the cold and terrible road conditions to share this wonderful evening with me. The music was amazing and the food absolutely top shelf.
