No Date Set Yet But Im thinking January and it will be at the Grosse Pointe Public Library Centeral Branch theres a cost of 5 dollars a person i can have up to 30 people so if you want to come we will need to hammer out a date of what time and were
i have a correction to make there is no cost i was thinking about a costume contest the room is free so whos interested
We have a prop party usually Febuary or March. We shouldnt have 2. I say let the people that have be putting it together keep running with it.
Jayyy9:
First of all, if it was you that sent Harvey and Jen and Nicole and her boyfriend my way, I owe you BIG. Those guys rock!
Second of all, if gpghosts wants to get proactive with the Michigan bunch, you go BOY-EEE! I'll be happy to show up and bring some stuff, but I believe that more people will attend [and be appreciative] if they have some personal effort and perhaps a bit of personal money [gasp!] invested in putting one together.
I do agree that a year between parties would seem to be a good idea, even more might be warranted to drum up more interest.
Anyhow, I'm more than happy to stand on the sidelines and cheer.
Best Regards,
JAS
thanks outlander i should talk to who ever it is that has the michigan prop party every year and ask if we can do two cause some might have made some new stuff and really wanna show it
Outlander, that was RPFer 'etheren' aka Jason who sent Harvey and gang to you. I know because I had lunch with Jason in Ohio on Saturday. LOL Glad your Halloween event went off so well !!!

Two years ago I had considerable help from Myxlplkt, Tripoli, and Hicks. Last year... Hicks paid for almost half of the hall rental but was unable to be more involved than that.thanks outlander i should talk to who ever it is that has the michigan prop party every year and ask if we can do two cause some might have made some new stuff and really wanna show it

The honest truth is that last year's turn-out was a bit disheartening and the old guard from the past two years would be more than happy to pass the torch along to someone with younger, hotter blood, or pass it back to those who were doing it before me.

If you plan it, we will come!
There is always time to see new faces and new props!
My nephew just asked me when the next party was going to happen.
I think I've got him hooked!

Well if you do decide to have this in January, it's all depending on the weather how many people will show. Even with the ones we've had in April, the weather has been sketchy the first two years, with snow happening. The first year it snowed so hard some people couldn't even make it out. Remember, we normally get people from Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and Canada coming in for these.
Also, a place that can have "up to 30 people" will not be enough space (unless the weather IS bad and only the people that live close by can make it.). The first year we did this, we had 55 people, the next year at least 70....and that's just the people, not counting all the table space needed to display props.
<div class='quotetop'>(gpghosts @ Nov 5 2006, 03:18 PM) [snapback]1351339[/snapback]</div>i have called several churches and they are gonna get back to me. i also conteplating using a Veterans Hall for the partyi might be able to find a church that can hold us

St. Luke's United Methodist Church in Rochester Hills allows outside groups to use their hall on Saturdays. ROBA meets there the last Saturday of the month.
Good luck
Considering most props we collect have to do with guns or edged weapons, as long as the churches are fine with bringing that kind of thing into their building, see what happens.
well i will check with them and if someone near grosse pointe wants to help out i would apreciate it
hey keep Me in the loop, I live in Lansing and would love to attend one of these prop parties.
have not seen any movement on this in a bit, are people still interested in getting together for this?
