Ok, there's a still a party, but it won't be the same without you evil queens!
Nir Ofek, May 26, 2007 @ 14:33

All those who have participated in CC maybe would like to participate in a program pavillion for our eclectic language exchange meetings.
berlin, May 26, 2007 @ 17:38

YES ! and NO ENTRY with out swimming suits ;-)
busstop, May 26, 2007 @ 23:04

Terrific, cant wait..
yes nabil swim suits : )
luluzinja, May 27, 2007 @ 02:05

tell you what: for each GoLer that shows up wearing a swim suit, we will double - of our own pockets - the guest's entry fee and give it all to charity.

So if you show up with a suit and pay CHF 20 at the door (which goes right to the UN's food program), we will put another CHF 20 in for charity.

Swim suits for charity...

Nir Ofek, May 27, 2007 @ 13:47

What a shame!
moyse, May 27, 2007 @ 15:58

wow.. 10K that's a number! I think that we have all been waiting for this party.

Thanks to you guys, expats of Geneva finally have their community!

Take care and see you soon,

Very nice move from you guys... but are you aware of the fact that many GOLers are crazy enough to actually do it ?

Sat 16th is Bol d'Or regatta date. So I won't be with you. But I'll take out my binoculars while passing in front of UN beach for sure ! :-D
Hobbes, May 29, 2007 @ 17:44

Tinkie, let's talk on the night, when you're with the suit..
Nir Ofek, May 29, 2007 @ 19:52

Well done gang - I'm very proud of the Geneva community!

Helen M, May 30, 2007 @ 15:26

i do agree with this idea ..but what about who waer a suit and SWIM will it be trible ;-)
busstop, May 30, 2007 @ 19:46

Thanks alot (nt)
SiteAdmin Oded, May 31, 2007 @ 12:40

Arriving in swimsuit why not? what wouldn't we do for charity purposes? ;) But definitly not spending the whole night without real clothes !!!

... Especially as I'll probably go directly to the airport after the party...
Who is the wicked guy who invented duty travel with an early Sunday morning flight ????


aurelie, Jun 1, 2007 @ 00:37

Looking forward .....:D See you all.

Living at the Eaux-Vives, that's finally THE incentive to cross the lake by swimming. Do you mind having a wet and dripping person amongst you? Will somebody drive me back, though?
elisart, Jun 1, 2007 @ 21:24

9990, 9991,.....
I'm not going to be able to sleep tonight for fear I may miss the 10,000 joiner! is there a prize for the 10,000th joiner?

YouMeCo, Jun 1, 2007 @ 23:55

9992....
YouMeCo, Jun 1, 2007 @ 23:56

RemyS, Jun 2, 2007 @ 15:51

9,999... (nt)
YouMeCo, Jun 2, 2007 @ 18:48

wohoo!!!! finally :)
YouMeCo, Jun 2, 2007 @ 19:16

10 001 Members now!!!!
silverwolf, Jun 2, 2007 @ 19:56

that would be my friend, as I was trying to get her to sign up as the 10,000th, it was already taken while i was on the phone with her, but got her to take up a unique user name appropriate for the occasion!
YouMeCo, Jun 2, 2007 @ 20:33

yes, but without the 9999 members, we wouldn't be having the 10K party either! ;)
YouMeCo, Jun 2, 2007 @ 21:42

we will do an interview with both of them, and publish it in the next few days...


Nir Ofek, Jun 2, 2007 @ 22:34

mgarcia, Jun 4, 2007 @ 14:16

Hello, I am interested. Waiting for some more details...
eveonline, Jun 5, 2007 @ 20:32

Hey be patient! ;).. but lets make sure the music rocks and swings.. not of that normal laid back music.. but dancing, swinging, rocking sunny tunes all along! Good luck, i'll be there!
remco, Jun 6, 2007 @ 03:04

Attends impatiement les details de cette soiree sur la plage!
Feline, Jun 11, 2007 @ 18:47

I really wish that I could join this party!! Unfortunately though, I have to fly to Lisbon for the weekend, to look at flats for my move there at the end of the month.

Since I have joined GOL I have met a few members... even got my cat Gris Gris from a member! I only wish that I had met more of you!!

Have a great time at the party! Don't get too drunk... hehe, and congratulation GOL for hitting the 10,000+ mark!!!

Ellen_uk, Jun 12, 2007 @ 12:05

it's the same for member #6492 ;)
RemyS, Jun 12, 2007 @ 13:29

THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN!! jejeje.
josemadv, Jun 12, 2007 @ 19:29

THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN!! jejeje.
josemadv, Jun 12, 2007 @ 19:31

I can pay for the ticket to Geneva, but common, charging the 10k for the entry??? That is not what Geneva is all about. I´ll take a pie in the face and wear swimtruncks for charity, but pay for the 10k while BEING the 10k!
josemadv, Jun 12, 2007 @ 19:33

you wanted the 10k to be a her, sorry to disapoint you.
josemadv, Jun 12, 2007 @ 19:37

Of course I am with you tinkie sweetie!

With 19 cents, a schoolchild is fed for a meal or otherwise malnourished. By simply wearing swimsuit in the upcoming UN beach party (worth 40 CHF if I understand it right,20 from participants, 20 from some sponsors?), each of us is able to secure a schoolchild with a meal for a FULL academic year. (from World Food Program at http://www.wfp.org/food_aid/school_feeding/index.asp?section=12&sub_section=3

Wearing a swimsuit means donating a meal to a child for AN ACADEMIC YEAR, and help keeping them in school! Who as sane people would not do it?

I would certainly be surprised if not majority of sensible GOLers wearing swimsuit in the party. Isn’t it just a common theme party with swimming suit as dress code on the beach? And now we have one more positive incentive?

Let’s all have a fun night, celebrating our community now is 10,000 member strong; meanwhile providing a small extra contribution to the world of hunger which hopefully will soon be eradicated.

Some scarf should be allowed since it might be cold during the night. I bet more people will be joining very sane people like Tinkie, JacketChen, Julian and myself.

Salute to the sponsors for this generous offer. It is up to us to determine the scale of this charity donation by them. Let’s not disappoint them.
