SW MI Prop Party in Grand Rapids 5/31/08

On my way as we speak, will se ya all there.
I'm looking forward to meeting some of you today. I have 14 tables set up and we'll have a picnic table or two indoors for those that want to brown bag a lunch (or else to eat their Mc Chicken).

When you come, you'll want to go in the back side door next to dock door #8. I'll have a sheet on the main door pointing you in the right direction so you can find it.

If anybody that's coming has items they'd be willing to donate as door prizes, we can always use more. Thanks in advance!

I'll be taking pictures of the event to share with those who can't make it.

See you there! (If you don't know where, just go back to the first post!)

It's 5:00 now and I'll be packing it in a little earlier than planned, so if anybody is reading the board wondering if it's worth the trip for just a bit, we're already packed up. I'm looking forward to the next gathering.
Thanks to all who were able to make it, I enjoyed hanging with you all!

I was going to go, but I ended up having to work today and then forgot about it. Make sure to post a bunch of pics though!
 
A great time was had by all, the children present had a blast with the R2D2's

I had a great time, It was great to see some of you again and meet others for the first time. Lots of cool props on display and a bunch of R2's. Cant wait to do another one in the area. Hopefully next time i can bring more stuff though...

Sorry I had to miss this one; it looks like it would have been a good time and I would have enjoyed meeting everyone. Perhaps next time I won't have family/church commitments and will be able to show up. :(
 
I've uploaded all of my images, and a small video of Ben Lewitt's R2 in action.
It was a blast, thanks all for coming. Perhaps we can do this again next year. I'll have to think of good ways to remind people so that we have an even better turnout next time.
If anybody else has pictures they'd like to share, please do.

This is going to take a bit of doing. Unfortunately, the place I uploaded these is for my use only or some nonsense. Why I'd want to upload pictures and not show them to anybody is beyond me... I signed up for AT&T DSL recently, and haven't figured out all of the things I can do (or not) yet.
 
Awesome pictures. Seeing all you guys made me a little home sick.
The nerd community isn't too strong here in Maine. Redneck community is pretty serious though.

Good to see some pics of familiar faces.
 
WOW! that looked like a great place for a prop party.

Hopefully it will be there again next time.

Ok, I found a free host. We'll see how well this works.

I'm not sure how the video link here will work. If it is just a DL of unspecified file type, you'll need to add the AVI extension.

Hopefully we can do this again next year!
