New England Paint Day

[Dilvish the Deliverer]

Well the New Year gets me thinking of years past and things to do in the coming year. So I think it is high time that we resurrect the New England Paint Day.

 

For those of you unfamiliar with the New England Paint Day, it is a get together of like minded individuals; to paint, share techniques and to just have a plain old good time.

 

On to the debate. As this is a New England Paint Day, we have to figure out the location. In the past, they have been hosted by individual painters and at game stores. I can set up a time with Pat at my FLGS (Citadel Games Cellar in Groton CT) or I can host at my house depending on the number of people. For those who were at the last CT paint day, the Citadel has moved down the street to a new location and has much better lighting this time around.

 

I am open to other locations if it is more convenient for the majority; someone else would just have to step up and procure a location. Right now I should be good for most weekends up until April.

 

So, who's interested?

I would love to make it, but four hours is quite a haul for me. I don't really do long road trips these days.

Hello, Friend! I'd love to come, but I am carless... if someone lives near ECSU and wants to carpool, I'll pitch in for gas!

[Silvervane]

I'd like to attend as well. Haven't really checked out the LFGS around the Albany NY area since I got back into painting with the bones KS. Though I like the idea of a New England Paint Day.

I would love to attend, but living in Phoenix makes that rather difficult...

That might be arranged. My daughter goes to ACT in Willamantic so if that's the campus you're at you're only 30 minutes away.

[Aard_Rinn]

Ooo! It actually is! That would be awesome, if it could be arranged...

That's why I haven't made it out to any of the NY paint days yet. I do have a comfy couch though. And one of the casinos is like 15 minutes away. Just sayin'.

 

What sort of dates work for people. I was thinking some Saturday in late January or early February.

[Aard_Rinn]

Sat. is good for me!

Oooo! It sounds like lots of fun.

It would be about a 2 hour drive from where I live. I might be able to make it, depending on exactly when you were thinking of doing it.

 

I'd love to suggest possible locations, but I do not have a better idea. I guess if there were way more people driving down from northern New England than from NY / CT, it might pay to move it further north, but you would know far better than I.

 

I know that I am busy on January 11&12, and on February 16, 22 and 23 (business + TotalCon)

I'm out of the country until May, so I'll probably have to sit this one out. Maybe a repeat over the summer?

Most definitely!

Sounds like fun, I hope everyone who can go has a blast!

[Qwyksilver]

Depending on the day, I may be able to attend. A 2 hour drive is barely more than some of my commutes.

[Chaoswolf]

Yup, sounds like fun to me. Where and when?
