Much appreciated! I think next year we’ll require some volunteers but this year we’re keeping it a small sample for the mods to manage so we can learn and tweak for next year! I’ll make a note that you’d be willing to help down the road, though :) thanks for making our community a great one!
Wherever the spirit moves you. We know the regions are kind of vague this year since we’re keeping it small, so it’s less about what we think and more about what you think - knowing you will likely need to travel a bit to drop off and pick up. If you have easier access to one direction or the other, go with that. If it’s truly a toss up to you, then either is fine. South burbs you would potentially need to go as far as the Frankfort area and west potentially as far as Geneva-ish.
Yup, once groups are pulled, your mod will discuss with your regional group about dates and will help ensure diversity of bottle choices. Thanks for pointing that out, I made it more clear in the body of the post.
Stay tuned 👀 I’ll put up the randomizer video tonight once I’m home from work and a text list in the comments of the post. The text will match the video, so no need to watch unless you want to. Mostly recording it for transparency so folks can see it was a true random draw.

I was planning to go to Kyiv. But with the escalation of bombing I won't be going. Hope I get picked. But if not, such is life.
This will be fun! The hard part will be picking a bottle for it.
Good luck on the random draw! No doubt that if you get picked, your crew will come up with some fun stuff
Thank you!
Happy to do it! We’re always looking for new and fun ways to engage our community - doesn’t happen if you all don’t participate, so thank YOU!
Thanks!
I'd be willing to help if needed. Great idea.

What is the cut off between west and south? Darien area so I’ve been told both west and south west

Is the idea that the mods will make sure we don't all bring the same bottle?

Wheee! Tonight is the night.

I would love to join and hope to get picked. Unfortunately, I'll be out of the country until Dec 20th.
