NERBS- MA Gathering
Posted by: Michael Joyce (---.proxy.aol.com)
Date: March 14, 2006 04:52PM

Date: April 29th
Time: 8:30 am to ?
Location: Sterling, MA
Cost: N/A

In true North East Rodbuilders fashion we'll primarily focus on thread art. Guide wraps, trim bands, open wraps, and closed will be discussed and demo'd, along with some weaving and other spontanious topics like using VisualWrap, CP and finish and who knows what else...its an open forum and all are welcome.

Being late in April, there's a better chance for good BBQ weather and the date falls just before the striped bass show in catchable numbers. Because we don't charge a fee, all we ask is if you could help out with a food dish, desert, chips, drinks etc...Bring yourself, maybe some of your rods or shop hand tools, and an open mind.

There'll be a door prize drawing(s) and possiblly a rodbuilders fleamarket/yard sale for anyone interested in selling some of there"junk".

More to come

PS for those of you that thought this was going to happen April 1st......April Fools!!! lol

...sorry Ernie, my better half needed me to "yeild" that partiular weekend to her interests. After spending 5 days away in Charlotte during which the furnace broke, then caught fire and spilled oil everywhere...its the least I could do for her.

Hope the new date works for you.
