Carolina Kilt Night... Take 3

[duchessofnc]

I would very much like to have a kilt night either the weekend before Oct 2nd or the weekend after. October 2nd is my 31st birthday and I have to admit, I can think of nothing better than to celebrate it around my kilted friends.

Is it possible? I can do either Saturday or Sunday on either weekend.

First, Happy Birthday in advance! If I could make it there I would and we could celebrate mine too.

Being fairly new here, and only recently kilted, I've never participated in one of the kilt nights. Where do you guys normally get together?

Usually at Ri Ra's but there's only been 2 thus far, so it's not our "regular" place.

I'll see if I can make it.

So far it's been at RiRa's Irish Pub. But we could also make it some other family friendly place. How about Hooters *wicked grins*

I would propose Brixx Pizza as a location. There are a few other possible places. My asthma has been really bad the last few weeks so I'm kind of nervous about RiRa's. And entering the Fall, it's usually the worst.

Just some suggestions though. But we basically get together, cut the fool, and have a good time. I know some of the other kilt night events have been fairly diverse in location. So it's pretty much anyone's call.

Are you "guys" open to a semi-old guy from the Greensboro area joining you? I may be able to join depending on the date and time.

Can't believe all the Charlotteans on this thread! I've NEVER seen a kiltie in Charlotte. I've love to meet up for a kilt night, but---as you can see I'm "fudgeman". Nearly every weekend the wife and I are off somewhere for a festival selling fudge and glazed nuts. So, weekends are a big problem for me. I'll watch to see what the decision is and if at all, possible I'll try and attend. And, for all you locals--we'll be at the Matthews Alive Festival this weekend and Festival in the Park in a couple weeks. Please stop by and introduce yourself. Look for the "Fresh Fudge", "Glazed Nuts" banner. Just wanted to add that we will not be on the main street. So, if you go to the festival at night we won't be open. We're in the Arts and Crafts area--spaces 15-16. A&C hours are Sat 9-7:30; Sun 12-7:30 and Mon 9-6:00. Hope to see you there.

Hey there, I've been gone for a while and might be able to be around Charlotte (from Winston-Salem) for a kilt night depending on when it is. What are you planning? Also, any folks in GSO or W-S want to try a get together?

[Casey_in_Carolina]

So what time do these celebrations normally start, and how long do they last? Just curious as I'm currently looking at a couple of hours drive to get to the Charlotte area, so if it's an evening kind of thing, I may not be able to attend, depending on how late they run.....
