OK, it's a go, I reserved the hall today. We have the hall for Jan. 3rd 2004 from 9-4. We have to vacate the premises by 4PM. No alcohol please, John and I don't feel there's any need to have a bartender at this function. We can use the kitchen to warm up food and stuff but have to clean up after. All parking should be across the street in their lot(it has a sign) Handicap paking in front or side is allowed but please do not park out back as that is for the members only. Come in the front - it's upstairs in case you come in the back. I'll post directions later, it's easy to find - Elm st. just off rt. 28 address is 29 Elm St.
There is a dance floor that we could setup some benches for a couple lathes and we should bring a couple shopvacs also. The hall has many round tables and chairs to do fly tying and for eating or whatever. So if someone can bring a bench(since the tables are only 30" high), a mini lathe or a shopvac, please speak up. Anyone have a benchtop drill press?can you bring one? If you want to turn plugs and can bring your own set of chisels, it might be a good idea, bring some blanks also.
I can bring - first of all, a triple batch of Melissa's brownies
also a set of chisels, AYC blanks, a drill chuck for a lathe, a handheld drill with bits, leadshot,and other assorted tools and safety glasses or faceshield. I can't bring my lathe as it's too heavy.
A few have already said they can bring stuff, so if you can reply here also then we can keep track easier.
We have over 30 signed up already so it will be $5 to pay at the door, Thanks
We will give out tickets and have a raffle too.
So let's hear what you can bring and we'll make this another successful get together, Thanks

OK, that's the list so far. I guess we are all set for shopvacs. If we can get 3 mini-lathes atleast that would be good.The more the merrier. With all the people signed up so far maybe we could use some more lathes. However, like I mentioned before , the tables are 30" off the floor so maybe I could make up some small stands for the mini-lathes to bring the height to a more comfortable working height, Anyone got any ideas? I hope this isn't a cluster$%*&
I 'll try to update this list in a few days.
IF ANYONE IS BRINGING A WARM DISH, IT WOULD HELP TO BRING IT IN A CROCKPOT IF POSSIBLE, or in some kind of pan so we can warm it in the oven. THANKS
