Northampton Ma. USA meet up May 17th
|
So I posted a call to anyone in the Western Massachusetts area or beyond that would be interested in a meet up. Now that it is a few weeks away I wanted to say we are a go for Saturday May 17th. I have put a call out to other photo forums and have got a few people showing interested.
www.northamptonma.gov/ is a great little artsy town. Lots of things to shoot and we should have no problem having fun. I want to say I am not offering any prizes or free give away. Just a fun few hours and a chance to meet the folks we chat with here and maybe learn something new.
The plan is to meet in front of the Calvin Theater at around 9am
The Calvin Theatre and Performing Arts Center
19 King Street
Northampton, MA 01060
(413) 586-8686
From the East or West
* Take the Mass Pike (I-90) to Exit 4 (I-91), following signs towards Holyoke.
* Take I-91 North to Exit 18 (Northampton Center Exit).
* At the end of the ramp, you will take a left onto Pleasant Street (a.k.a. Route 5 North).
* Take Pleasant Street approximately one mile to the stoplight at the intersection with Main Street in the center of town.
* Continue straight through the light. (Here Pleasant Street becomes King Street.) Calvin Theatre is on immediate right at 19 King Street.
From the North
* Take I-91 South to Exit 20 (Northampton/Hadley Exit).
* Follow the ramp onto King Street.
* Take King Street approximately one mile to the light in the center of town at the intersection with Main Street.
* The Calvin Theatre is directly on your left just before the intersection.
From the South
* Take I-91 North to Exit 18 (Northampton Center Exit).
* At the end of the ramp, you will take a left onto Pleasant Street (a.k.a. Route 5 North).

* Continue straight through the light. (Here Pleasant Street becomes King Street.) Calvin Theatre is on the immediate right at 19 King Street.
I am really looking forward to this even if it is just me and my Nikon buddy. If you have any questions post here or send me an email or PM.
Thanks and look forward to seeing you.

Still not sure if I can make it, but I'll let you know.
It would be great if you would put this on Upcoming -- it will help to spread the word and to keep track of photos from the day:

It is this weekend for anyone watching. We are a go and my friend and I did a drive buy of at least 5 locals for the morning walk about. If still interested please let me know. Looks like about 4 or 5 people so far but really enjoy having more.

My list of weekend chores is now as long as my arm, so I'm going to have to skip this meetup. I hope you have fun, and I'll look forward to seeing your pix.

That is a bummer!!! I promise there will be a next time. I am thinking of doing an evening gathering. Like twilight hours and some fun street light shots if all goes well tomorrow. Thanks anyway.
