Gathering

On Sat, 16 Dec 2000 00:13:05 -0500 " Terri Wagner " <twaller@...>

<<<<hmmmm maybe by the time we're ready for another swap we could do most

of the

swapping in person at a gathering??? (keeping that idea in the back of my

head) lol>>>>

A gathering would be fun!

FYI: Do y'all know that there should be on in Saratoga Springs in late

summer? There was one in Aug. of '99, but the one this year ended up

being cancelled b/c of the hostess' surgery and her father's (whom she

had to help!). There is an egroups list for that one......

NYORBUST --pretty quiet most of the time

'cept when planning the gathering. But if anyone's interested, you can

sign on and introduce yourself. And I'm sure many of them would be

interested if there were another gathering to take place. rox

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.

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.

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?

downstairs. if we have it on a weekend where my husband is home..he can do

my baby-watching.

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

Okay Terri, help out here! Is Comfort Inn the same as Days Inn?

Isn't there a Comfort Inn close to you off Rd. or something by

Denny's?

Anyone looking for directions to my house-well we'll get dh to give

you those. I'm lucky if I can back out of my driveway & go in the

right direction!!! LOL!

Looking forward to meeting you Debbie!

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?

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. TIA, rox

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

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.

Maybe next year............rox
