Popular Post Fred W. Hargis Jr Posted April 2, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 2, 2018 Aug. 25th. With 9 voting member that date won out by 2 votes. (Poll thread here). So now I hope you can clear time on your calendar to attend. To refresh the details: gathering will be at my shop in Wapakoneta OH (4 miles off I-75, or US 33 for the east-west travelers) Time will be roughly 10:00 AM to no later than 5:00 PM (have to start planning/fixing dinner for my disabled wife). I will have lunch/snacks/beverages for the attendees, and if those planning on getting here early want, I can also have donuts. Right now I'm thinking lunch will be fried chicken with some some dishes. This is primarily just a meet/greet/jawbone event though Steven Neuman has offered to demonstrate using a Stanley 45, and John Morris will try to get some door prizes from TPW sponsers. If anyone else has a a technique/tool/whatever they would like to demonstrate, that would be a welcome addition. I'd like to see as many as possible attend, though if all 2000 members show up I may have to move the meeting to a nearby state park , might also have to put out a collection jar to pay for lunch.

Still couldn't talk Morris into sending the company jet, eh? . Street address (although I'm sure I'll be asked again closer to the date) is: 17676 Wapakoneta Fisher RD, Wapak's zip is 45895 (if you search it that way). There will be more posts on this closer to the date to start trying to ascertain how many so I can buy the food and stuff. As Neuman would say: stay tuned! Edited April 2, 2018 by Fred W.

We'll be at all your front doors the day before the big event, to give ya'll a lift and take you to Fred's place! Make your flight reservations now because my company jet gets crowded quickly, may have to take a few trips to get you all there! Flight meals not provided, bring your own. Artie, HARO50, Fred W.

Artie Posted April 2, 2018 Report Share Posted April 2, 2018 I’m gonna have to wait until closer to the date to be able to make a decision, but I’d like to, and so far there is no reason that absolutely rules it out. Grandpadave52 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry I can't attend but maybe some other time. You picked the right day for the majority and the more the merrier. It will be a good day.

We've just had our third 100 year flood in 2 years. Going out this am and half the neighbors lawns are mostly underwater. A brief break possible today (have not seen it yet), but another frog-drowner due this evening. Al B, Artie and Grandpadave52 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
