West Coast Gathering! Location input requested

[Matt Jacobs]

I'm about 20 minutes north of Portland but my kid goes to UW so I'm in Seattle often. I'd love to join a meet up.

If you guys meet up at Bladeshow West in Saltlake City in 5 weeks, i'd join u guys!

I am driving through Salt Lake in October. I may try and make this work. If I can I'll let you know.

I’m about an hour north of San Diego and an hour south of LA. Would love to make something happen if it’s close enough -

JKI is in LA, possibly worthwhile asking @JBroida if that’s an option. There has to be a ton of hotel options with all kinds of price ranges

Speaking of which, if there's enough interest, I can inquire with my work (in Long Beach) how much it would cost for a space (we have several for pretty much all sizes of groups).

Oh hey, what a revival thread! I’m in south Seattle, but would be willing to drive a bit. I can check if there’s a local community center to rent, really depends on what people want to do other than look at knives and stones.

If you all do something in that area our own @lumo is the Chef at a West Hollywood hotel, and the restaurant looks pretty sweet: Cavatina Restaurant | WeHo Restaurant | Sunset Marquis

October is absolutely crazy for me but I’d love to do mid November - 11th/12th or 18th/19th.

After that I start getting crazy again with the holiday season lol

I don't think this would necessarily be a KKF WCG, but David Lisch is hosting a show Sep 14 2024 at his shop. If nothing else this could be an excellent show to get all the west coast people together.
