We're pleased to announce that we have been working with Mountain Equipment Co-op to organize a club night for DragonBoatWest members. If you haven't picked up your paddling gear yet, this would be a great opportunity to do so.

DragonBoatWest Mountain Equipment Co-op Club Night

Date: Monday April 19th, 7-9pm
Location: MEC Vancouver, 130 West Broadway
Open to current members of dragon boat teams!
 
Receive 10% off all items purchased that evening – and 5% off bikes and boats!
RSVP is required to attend.
Participants must be a member of Mountain Equipment Co-op in order to make a purchase.  If you are not yet a member, you may purchase a 5$ membership that evening.

Please note that you will need to RSVP by April 12th with us as we will be providing MEC with a list of names of attendees beforehand. To RSVP, please PM me (DBWTim) with your full real name, current team and email address.

I assume this only applies to the Vancouver MEC, or does it apply for Calgary and Edmonton as well?

[DBWTim]

Sorry, it only applies to the Vancouver store unfortunately. If it's successful, we would like to see it extended to other stores in the future.

Date: Tuesday April 19th, 7-9pm

Just to clarify: is this Monday April 19th, or Tuesday April 20th?

[DBWTim]

Sorry, bad cut and paste job. Thanks for spotting the typo.

It will be Monday, April 19th.

Thanks to everyone that came out to the MEC club night last night and congratulations to the winners of the draw prizes throughout the night. I hope everyone is now well stocked for the coming season.

For those that attended, please let us know how we could improve it if we were to run it again in the future.

Thanks

The only thing I would change would be to make it earlier in the year, maybe in early February.

That would allow most people to hit the store before dragonboat season starts (for those not on super competitive teams), and stock up on the essentials for the upcoming season.

It would also prevent the night conflicting with a Canucks playoff game which I know took precedence for many in the end.

Overall it was great, and many thanks for organising it.

[mandachan]

I would agree with PPR in making it earlier in the year (Feb sounds good) for the same reasons mentioned.

Thanks for organizing it!!

Only problem with the end of Feb is that none of the new inventory would have arrived.  I don't think MEC received their paddling gear until mid-March.

[superduper]

Great event!  Normally MEC is so busy and the sales staff aren't always available.  This was like a private shopping event and I was able to ask a lot questions without being rushed.

Probably could have spent more time there and bought more.
