Guest guest Posted January 20, 2001 Report Share Posted January 20, 2001 This has been a thought and talked about a little on the list. As Colleen can back me on this my place will not handle anymore than a just a few folks unless we could do it outside and thats sort of out of the question because we all know how our NY weather can be LOL I can't imagine anymore than say 5 or 6 people here....a 14x60 mobile home is not a good gathering place LOL Personally don't see a need to pay for a spot either...ie a bed and breakfast or a building in a public park.... don't think this group is big enough to have those kinds of funds laying around. So....how about the rest of the group. anyone have room enough for (taking a guess at numbers here) say 20 people maybe more or even less? Another list I'm on (NewEnglandSoapmakers) did a quick thrown together gathering last fall that from all the talk about it was a great sucess. Basically they met at one of the members houses and everyone brought food to pass and an assortment of soaping type goodies to share. They had a few people do demo's as well. Tossing this up for discussion.....if we're going to have a gathering we should start planning very shortly for it. Terri PS If turn out is on the low side of numbers I'd be more than happy to hold the gathering here. I'd be more than pleased to show off my soaping SHELF! LOL (like I said...we don't have much room here) We have a 3 season room that could hold say 8 or 9 if the weather turn yucky. Hmmmm now that I think about it....I could do a small gathering here.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2001 Report Share Posted January 20, 2001 Well, Terri. I have the room at my house if people don't mind coming to Ilion. I have a large backyard with in-ground pool, a sunroom, large living room, large family room in the cellar, and have had 75people here before. I'm only about 4 miles from the Thruway exit in Herkimer & really easy to get to once you get off the Thruway. I like the idea of everyone bringing something to add to a buffet type meal. The only thing I don't have is the equipment you guys use for making CP soap, because I do M & P. So we couldn't have any demos on making soap. I have my workshop off the family room downstairs but what else could be demonstrated that you guys make? Any questions or concerns just ask. Anybody else have room or an even better idea? M.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2001 Report Share Posted January 20, 2001 Shay Like I said...I'd be glad to have it but if someone else wants to, that's OK, too. We'll see what all the others have to say. Let's try to shoot for a time when we have SOME chance of warm weather, though. I'd much rather sit outside than inside, wouldn't you? I haven't checked our group's website lately. Did Terri ever get that little " map " together showing where everyone lives? I'm curious to see just how far away everyone lives. I know we have a few even from out of state, don't we? M Re: Re: gathering Well, Terri. I have the room at my house if people don't mind coming to Ilion.

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2001 Report Share Posted January 21, 2001 Is this a the-more-the-merrier type of thing? I was wondering if we should post a note to the NYORBUST list that we're tossing around ideas for a gathering. Mebbe the two lists would want to join forces (it might take some of the pressure off of --the hostess of the 1st NY or BUST gathering--, too). BTW, at that one (about 15 people) we brought dishes to pass and fired up 's BBQ grill. We also had several folks do demos. was set up to do CP, but there's no reason we couldn't bring our own equipment....all we'd need then would be access to the kitchen to do our demos! Sounds like fun! rox ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO! Juno offers FREE or PREMIUM Internet access for less! Join Juno today!

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2001 Report Share Posted June 27, 2001 Boy, we all sound the same. I'll be driving up being escorted by Kathy (my cuz) from Niagara Falls. She's going to be here in Ilion that weekend so we can go and get "lost" together. Hey, Kathy, if you're reading this....how about we go to the Casino on the way back to Ilion? In fact if you want, we may be able to get a room there so we don't have to drive home that night. My hubby even suggested we get a room but I think he meant in Syracuse. Little does he know I'm thinking of the casino. (hehe) And Debbie...that's great that you're coming in from Pennsylvania. I give you a lot of credit for making that trip by yourself. You go, girl!! If I were you, I'd make sure I picked a motel with a pool so you could relax and take a swim, you know? -----------That's why my husband is driving me to your house.

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2001 Report Share Posted June 27, 2001 Hi, everyone. As you may know, I had to go no mail for a while earlier this spring when initial plans were being made for the gathering..........unfortunately, isn't letting me into the archives so I can't go back and see what the details are.......things like what to bring (other than a dish to share) and such. Would anyone care to fill me in, either here or on the message board so that others could check in later, too.

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2001 Report Share Posted June 27, 2001 Has anyone contacted SunFeather Soaps in Potsdam for a donation? Since they're right in our area, you'd certainly *think* they'd donate something. Also, just wondered if we'd be interested in crossposting to the NYORBUST list......they had a gathering 2 years ago, but last year's was cancelled due to the hostess' surgery and so far nothing seems to be happening this year. I'll bet there are at least one or two folks who might be interested in attending ours if we wanted to extend an invitation. rox ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!

Guest guest Posted July 13, 2001 Report Share Posted July 13, 2001 Well. it looks like I'm not going to be able to make the gathering after all )^: My sister and her family are coming to visit that weekend and because of her work schedule, it's the only weekend she can come. I'll have to retract my offer to do an oven HP demo, though since I never got any response to the offer, I don't think it was being considered for the itinary.
