Event Details:
-Time: Noon to 7pm -Where: Veteran’s Memorial Park, Hudson, FL -What: an informal gathering of scribes to work on projects, have classes, exchange ideas and resources, and just socialize -SNQE site is indoors, and air-conditioned. -NO garb. NO fees. NO formal meetings. Lotsa FUN. Bring:
share, something for the pot-luck (or $ for eating out) plus your own beverages. We'll be there for lunch, and maybe dinner as well. We will have access to the kitchen, with microwave, stove (no cooking utensils or pots supplied), refrigerator and ice machine. There are three major grocery stores, four strip malls, at least five convenience stores, and a dozen or more restaurants & fast food places within three miles of the park. Note:
the rest of the park. By park rules, all children must be supervised while on site. There are extensive playgrounds, and a pool (I think there's a small fee) but someone must be actively watching over all children under 12. There will be some overnight crash space available. (There's always backyards for tents.) Let us know if you need crash space, especially if you want to come Friday night. Planned Activities:
Games : I have a few ideas for some unusual scribal-themed games. COS Library : See what we have. Make suggestions on what we might try to acquire. Drool over the pretty pictures. (Bring your own drool towel, please.) Classes!! : (whatever we can assemble by then!) Post your wish-list on the Scribe's list. Been planning one you want to teach? Here's your chance to try it out on a captive audience. Got questions about one you took elsewhere? Plenty of brains here to pick over. Directions:
SR 52 junctions with both US 19 and I-75. From I 75, go WEST 20.3 miles to Hicks Rd. You'll pass both US41 and the Suncoast Parkway- these are alternate N/S routes from Brooksville/Tampa areas if you prefer. Go north on Hicks Rd. 2 miles to the light at Hudson Ave. Continue past the light ¼ mile- the park is on the left. From US 19, go to Hudson Ave. (2.3 miles north of SR 52) and turn EAST. Go 2.8 miles to the light at Hicks Road (you'll go past Little Road). Make a left at the light. Continue ¼ mile- the park is on the left. There's a tank out front- you can't miss it. You may unload at the main door, but must park in the north lot. When you enter the building, take a left to the doors at that end of the hall (Rooms 3 & 4). If you need directions to I-75, Pasco County, or SR 52, email gwenllyan@aol.com The site is handicapped-friendly: no steps. Please let me know if you plan to attend, so I can tell the park how many tables I'll need for that day. |
