For the most part, the Changchun Friends website is not very active and has been superseded by the Tencent "Wechat" app by the local expat community. This website is maintained sporadically, people may still join and membership is still open, but if you are a spammer, stay away. The archived information here is still useful, but some may be out of date. There are plans to make it more useful for static information in the future. If anyone needs information about Changchun or China, you may post a message and it probably will get a response but not immediately.

Changchun Friends

a great way to get involved

I realized I could put this here...so, let's try to make the conversations continue here:

Today's planning session was definitely fruitful.  Unfortunately, we ended up sans Wifi so we were only able to plan some things with rough ideas about what was out there in May.  We have definitely decided that we will create the event--Diamond Jubilee Darts Night on June 9, 2012 with the following schedule:

  • 7pm Round of drinks start-up (to keep everything fair. ;)
  • 7:30pm Practice Round
  • Next round of games will be 301 best 2 out of 3
  • Final match is 501 with winners from the previous round and winner takes all in one match.

There will be prizes.  If we have the 12 people here, we'll take the 4 self-proclaimed experts Richard, Richard, Jack, Chris perhaps??? and make them Captains.  At a future undetermined date, we will draw numbers for teams.

Chris and I are going to scope out Germantown for a possible new venue on Saturday night.  Otherwise, we'll be searching for a venue. 

We have Dart Supplies orders getting prepared.  What we can't get here in China, I'll be picking up in the states when I go home for my graduation on June 2nd (thus the ill-timed Diamond Jubilee the following weekend...;)

Now that I see that May is relatively free, Chris and I will revisit the idea of a Darts League gathering prior to the big match.  It will not be as exciting as June 9th though. :)

Any Qs???  Good night all!  Thanks!

Colin - who owns the 3 Monkeys is opening a new bar in June - I will be talking with him soon and will be going round to look at the new bar with him  - will fill you in on details

otherwise the present 3 Monkeys is pretty good!

Cool.  Keep us posted!  We are still going to do "research"...make sure the beer's good... :)

Well, I think I might be able to get around to 2 this Saturday, but that's pushing it.  Maybe we'll check out D Tune next week.
