NE Chapter May Meeting

[Real]

At the recent March meeting we talked about setting the next meeting for May. So I am proposing May 22nd, 2016 as the next New England Chapter meeting. We thought putting it out there early would get us more participation. I'll open my shop again but we can discuss alternatives also.

So, who's interested and what do we want to see?

I would love to see the 360 herringbone

 

[pianomanpj]

I would go, but I'll still be on my return trip from the MAPG. Any chance of deferring this meeting a few weeks or so?

 

[Real]

I'm pretty open. Throw out a date and let's see if people like that date better.

[pianomanpj]

I'm open, too. Even a week or two later would be fine.

 

[Real]

Well the next weekend is May 29th (Memorial Day). I don't think anyone will want to do that. That puts us at June 5.

I would be willing to do a hb360 demo again, but I'm only available on Sunday's , and that is only if I'm in the country at the time.

 

[tjseagrove]

Weekend party?? Both days would keep you busy for sure.

[OldeVillagePens]

I'm interested as a new guy, but not on the weekend of May 22nd.

 

[pianomanpj]

So is there a currently proposed date? The MAPG will have me unavailable from May 18 - 23. Other than that, I am wide open.

 

[Real]

OK. So May 22nd is out. The next date I proposed was June 5th. Let's discuss.
If we could get Neil to do his HB360 demo, that would be great.

[pianomanpj]

June 5th is wide open for me!

 

[Crayman]

June 5th works for me also.

 

[DAVIDDECHRISTOPHER]

I will be in New Port on May 22 2016. Not able to make that date.

 

[wolftat]

Gentlemen, I have to retract my offer to do the demo. I am going to be overseas for an undetermined time. Life is funny sometimes and those of you that have gotten to know me may have noticed that I am more comfortable in my old ways. I have been offered an assignment that will put me back in the area I have become so acquainted with and feel that It is going to be best for me. It has been an honor meeting you all and hope you all continue striving to learn more and work at honing your skills until you are certain you have attained the best level you can, then push harder. Take care, Neil

 

[Real]

Neil:
I wish you all the best in your new assignment. Without a doubt you were a big part of the success of the New England Chapter. I learned a lot from you.
If you are ever in the area, let us know and we can setup a get together.

[pianomanpj]

Best of luck, Neil. I was looking forward to meeting you at the next NE Chapter meeting. Perhaps we'll meet at one later down the road.

 

[bloodhound]

I didnt get to make the last meeting due to car issues. I will be keeping an eye out on the dates. I told some folks i would bring some wood. and i will keep my word if i get to come to this one.

 

[Flynny]

I have never been to a chapter meeting - but would like to. I am retired but working part time - with notice I can get time off.

[pianomanpj]

So is there a firm date as to the next meeting and as to where?

 

[wolftat]

Tomorrow at 0500 I will officially be on my way out of here. I wish you all the best and am looking forward to seeing everyone when I return.

 

[Real]

Wishing you the best of luck. Let us know when you come back as I am sure a lot of us would love to get together with you.
