    Monthly Kilt Nights

    Rabble,
    It's a new year, and time to (hopefully) figure a fairly consistent kilt night layout, (IE second Saturday of each month or whenever) Instead of planning a kilt night on the fly each month we could collectively decide on a night and plan to meet then.. the location would change to help with our widespread locations but I feel locking in a date each month would greatly help newer members who might not see a post, and those with chaotic schedules make more gatherings. What say you all??

    I am in.

    I request that it not be the third Saturday (unless it's afternoon).

    My vote is for the second Saturday of the month simply because most holidays seem to fall at the beginning or end of the month, should a holiday fall on that weekend we can reschedule accordingly.

    So no objections from the Chicago rabble regarding the second Saturday of each month?

    No objection here, but the second weekend of next month is typically a busy one for restaurants.
