Frans & Janis Wedding Tweetup/Meetup/Bash

Please join us and help us celebrate our wedding!


Although our wedding February 12th will be a very small family affair, we want to celebrate our marriage with all of our friends who have been such a fabulous and wonderful part of both of our lives!

We hope you can attend our celebration at a Tweetup/Meetup/Bash on Thursday, February 17, at 7PM at The Bard & Banker Pub, 1022 Government Street. We have reserved the entire upper-floor so that we can fit in as many people as possible. (cash bar)

We look forward to seeing you there, to help us celebrate and be able to share our moment with you!

(In lieu of gifts we are accepting donations to The BC Cancer Foundation. All donations of $10 or more will receive a signed copy of this year's Babes Go Bare Calendar. The BC Cancer Foundation is special to us as we were able to raise close to $10,000 dollars for them this past August as part of The Road to Port Hardy charity bike ride.)

See you there on February 17th!

Love,


Frans and Janis

aka @fransjonker and @lacouvee

Social Media Year in Review - August 2010 Victoria BC

For three years Frans Jonker reclaimed his fitness by biking. His introduction to most of the Victoria twitter community in July 2009 was through tweets about his rides. Originally he planned to cycle to Port Hardy as a personal challenge but people encouraged him to use it as an opportunity to raise funds for charity.

Thus, The Road to Port Hardy charity bike ride for the BC Cancer Foundation became reality. After a tweetup Aug 12th, Frans launched his ride August 16th, cycling 525km in 4 days and raising almost $10,000!

Carl Leone @VicCityParty who most of us met at Social Media Day, went to give blood in early August. That sparked the beginning of the #yyjbleeders tweetups (August 12th and October 23rd).

The next #yyjbleeders is Saturday January 15th. If you've never given blood before - why not make this a resolution for 2011? Please read the meetup description carefully.
