*OFFICIAL* SES San Jose 2007 Party & Events Schedule

[Joseph Morin]

Welcome to this year's SES San Jose Party Schedule.

Due to the requests of many party and event organizers, this year's private party events will not be listed. I can only confirm that there are private events on Monday and Wednesday.


Sunday August 19

Marriott Bar

Downstairs to right of reception at Marriott is usually the place to be.


Monday August 20


Women In Internet Marketing Luncheon


Time: 12:30pm - 2:00pm

Location: The Grill on the Alley



172 S Market St (at The Fairmont Hotel)

Space is limited, to rsvp send an email to Li Evans at smg-a-t-searchmarketinggurusDOTcom


Monday Evening


SEMPO The Search is Right Night

6:00 - 7:00 PM

Come on down to “The Search Is Right Night” Following brief
remarks about the state of the organization, attendees are invited to learn how they can get involved with the various SEMPO committees and enter for a chance to win door prizes such as an iPhone, gift certificates and more.

The event is open to SEMPO members and non-members alike, so brush up on your Plinko skills!

Location: Room B at the Conference Facility

Open Bar.


SEMPO In-House Search Marketer Networking Event

7:30 to 9:30 p.m.


Drinks and snacks to be provided, but come early or the snacks will run out.

This event is for In-House SEMs only. We will be checking folks at the door - agency reps will be politely asked to leave.

This event is an excellent opportunity for In-House SEMs to meet and grow their network of contacts. No sense going it alone when there are folks just like you who are happy to share what they know.

Location: St. Claire Hotel


Tuesday August 21


3rd Annual San Jose Classic

9:00 a.m. to ???


Once again, random golfers are welcomed to take some time out from SES San Jose (only if you have a permission slip) and join the organizers of this informal golf outing -- Chris Boggs, Andrew Goodman, John Krystynak -- for 18 holes of rather mellow semi-sporting activity.

Location: Sinnabar Hills, 25 minutes from downtown SJ

Leave a post on the classic thread if interested.

AOL Search Lunch

12:00 - 1:15 p.m.

Watch a demo of the new AOL Mobile Search, enjoy free lunch and network with other search engine professionals. Also, enter for a chance to win an iPhone! This free event is open to all registered SES San Jose attendees, but RSVP is required since space is limited. Please bring your SES badge, photo ID and your RSVP confirmation for admittance.

Thursday Night August 23

Nothing yet!

I know the schedule is a lot lighter than normal and that is the reason for the delay of this post. I'm feeling that the search industry is changing and maturing and we are now seeing far less activity on the social scene. With that said, this will be my last 'Official Party & Events Schedule' post. I'm moving on to other things in my career and I'm finding my time limited - also I wont be involved with SES Chicago this year due to another conflict. It was a fun ride while it lasted.

Hope to see everyone there! If I have left any party event off, please PM me and I will gladly add it to the schedule.

Thanks Joe, I think I'm going to be all partied out

[storyspinner]

Luncheon on Monday is filling up fast, I was able to get us a bit more room, but even that is getting close to maxed.

As of this morning (Friday 8/17) there is room for about 8-10 more spots.

Lunch will cost $25.00 plus tip, it's a special menu they put together in which there's 4 or 5 choices of main entree, also appetizer and desert.

This time around we're a little more organized thanks to the The Grill on the Alley's coordinator who was awesome to work with. We even have our own schmanzy danzy menus!

Also if anyone (company) would like to sponsor this lunch, feel free to contact me smg-a-t-searchmarketinggurusDOTcom, most of the women coming are in ownership or directorship of companies, and our luncheon doesn't include alcohol!

Thanks for the efforts again Joe. Best of luck with the new things going on - seems like the time for change is all around these days...

It is a wear whatever party

[Joseph Morin]

Thanks Duane, I give more of an explanation as to why this is my last 'Official SES Party Post' on my blog and yes, for those that have been asking, this does mean that I will no longer be the 'Official Party Coordinator for SES.

Thanks for the great run!

I'm not aware of Google organising a Dance for the next London SES, although there will be an "evilgreenmonkey dance" on the last day of the conference

[evilgreenmonkey]

A handy tip - set yourself up on Google Calendar and add in all the parties you're planning to attend. Then activate SMS notifications and get a nice friendly reminder sent to your phone before each party

Hey, I can still press charges after that groping incident you inflicted on me at SES NY

[evilgreenmonkey]

Hooray, I've finally arrived in San Jose - I think we should move all the conferences to London to save me from the 12 hour flight

I will hopefully see you all in the Marriott hotel bar tonight - remember to bring your drinking hat.

[storyspinner]

Women's Luncheon is all full!

Thanks for all those who spread the word!

[lolaris]

Joe,

Thank you for all of the great info in the past and keeping us in the know! As far as "maturing as an industry" I would hope no one outgrows the excitment of networking and importance of having a good time while you work. It has been a "fun" industry to be in, and I would hate to see that energy diminish. I personally thought the Jeeves farewell party in NY a couple years back was a very good time.

[Smooth Operator]

WOW! dont know if I speak for everyone but today is a bit tough I am still recovering from the show and the parties.

Great Show! Great Times! Cant wait for the next one

[AussieWebmaster]

You will be a hard one to replace.... does the job come with the poolside suite at the Fairmont?
