Hey guys and gals,
We are in the countdown phase to the meeting and there are not a whole lot of responses. I understand, it's close to Christmas, there are a zillion things competing for your time, and you're not sure if your significant other is going to agree to one more thing, especially on a Sunday.
Thing is, if we don't show enough interest, this may get canceled.
Let me remind you, the last meeting we had at (at SGM Retired's place) was a blast. We had significant others there and brought deeelicious dishes (good food as well). The non-turners who came enjoyed theirselves with a feast and a gabfest and even watched some of the demos. My wife and daughter both gained a better appreciation for the addiction .... I mean ..... hobby and now my wife is helping me plan and prepare blanks.
We are again inviting significant others (over the age of 15) to this meeting.
Let me also remind you, the last meeting we had at the craft shop (in the summer) also went very well. We (the IAP members) met some of the regular, hardcore members of the craft shop group (Woodchippers) and everyone learned a ton. We showed off our toys and had access to some really great equipment and there was enough to go around.
So, even if you have access to Redstone, let us know if you'll come. Even if you are only tentative, let us know that. Last time we had 6 or 7 definite 'yes' replies and ended up with a pretty good sized group. If you don't normally have access to Redstone Arsenal, we have that covered too. Last time, some of the members who came were expecting a great hassle and it was merely a few minutes worth of formalities and they were in. So just contact SGM Retired and give him the info.
