First Team Event - May 25th!

Thanks to our very accomplished and generous team member, Jaime of Wooditis , we have a place to hold our first Team Event. Jaime owns and operates a workworking school in North Las Vegas and has offered space in her facility for us to meet.  This is just for those of you who are interested in meeting up, and I know there are a bunch of you in the Pahrump/Boulder City are who may not be able to swing the drive.  I'll try and have a Henderson area meeting at some point and also a meetup in Pahrump for anyone interested.  Also, for those team members not interested in physical meetings, no worries.  We'll just stalk your Etsy shop.

For our first get together, let's plan on Tuesday, May 25th at 7pm.  If possible, please bring an item you've created that represents your craft to display on a table.  Please be sure mark your item with your shop name. and we can ask questions and then just mingle, eat, swap crafty war stories and learn to adore each other.

Also, because we are not charging membership fees for this group, I'm hoping a handful of people coming would be willing to bring some sort of dessert or drink (soda, juice, whatever). We'll provide the cups and napkins. You bring enough for ten and hopefully if a few people bring treats, it'll pan out. I'm ceaselessly optimistic.

The room we are meeting in is big enough to fit all of us, however there are limited chairs.  If you would be more comfortable sitting, please bring your own camp chair to use.

Jaime's shop is located in North Las Vegas at 2267 W. Gowan, in units 106. It's a modern warehouse facility and has ample parking.  At the driveway, you will see a big red-white-and-blue "For Lease" sign, pull in there, and it's about halfway back on the right, in unit 106. Feel free to bring a friend or two if you are nervous about the rest of us turning out to be ax murderers. Actually, we are holding this in a woodworking shop so who knows what kinds of saws Jaime has or what she keeps in her woodchipper...

Juuuust kidding. If you think you can come, please respond to this post or email me. Also, if you think you can bring a dessert or drink, please let me know as well.

Thanks again, Jaime! Can't wait to meet you guys.

Sounds great, and thanks for setting it up. Hope to see at least a few of us there. I'm heading up from around Boulder/Sahara, on the east side.

I would be interested but I just joined the LV Crafters Guild and that is the night of that meeting. Maybe another...

Sarah said...

What bad luck about the Crafter's Guild meeting! You'll have to be our inside source on what they are up to. Maybe we could even do some joint events with them.

Working and living in Pahrump doesn't leave enough time to get down there - maybe one closer to home or on a weekend.

We will definitely be there. We'd be happy to bring some munchies or other needed items. Just let us know what would be best. We are coming from Henderson, so if you need a ride, I should have room for 1 or 2 more. Can't wait to meet you all!
