Dartmouth Area Monthly Porcupine Meeting

[Vote Tyler Stearns]

Does the Plymouth Liberty Network count?

Does the Plymouth Liberty Network count?

YES! That is who I was thinking of but could not recall the name...
I've been 'under the influence' so forgive me, when are your meetings and I'll add them to the Liberty Calendar.

Our meetings aren't on a regular schedule...yet!  Next meeting will be at my house, but I need to sit down with my son and our calendar and figure out when we're going to be home at the same time and schedule it. 

I think we need to establish a consistent day/time/location. 
Question about location...the last meeting was at Rainey's house.  Next meeting will be at my/Tyler's house.  I think it's more comfortable & cheaper to meet at someone's home, but seems like it might be less intimidating to newcomers to meet at a more public place.  And, if we're going to publicize these meetings in hopes of getting more people to attend, then is it more appropriate to meet in a public place?

What do you think?

Doesn't really matter to us.

Well the other Porcs meet in pizza parlors or restaurants that have a lot of space...If there are not many of you, this would be a good idea. Then you don't have to worry about new people coming to your house that you don't quite know yet...

[Russell Kanning]

One consideration is that if you open up the meeting to any porcupines or anyone interested in the FSP, then you never know who will show up .... and if you want them in your living room.
It would be great if you set up a meeting once a month in Plymouth or wherever ... so we could promote it to outsiders and put it on calendars .... also keep talking it up in your regional forum here.

I am excited the Dartmouth crowd is getting regular meetings going. It will help visitors and movers.

I didn't know anyone was already meeting on a monthly basis before I suggested the meetup at Yama.  Maybe I just wasn't tuned in to it but I hadn't heard or seen it publicized.

I think it's a good idea to have the meeting at a public place so anyone can join, and you're right - Yama is a pretty small restaurant.  I just picked it because I thought not too many people would show up and they have superior sushi.

I think the Dartmouth area meeting should be held at:

Country Life Keene
15 Roxbury St
Keene, NH 03431

Hey Liberty Belle:
I hope you're not confused (or maybe I am)...the meetings I'm referring to are in the Plymouth region...

[Russell Kanning]

yea .... liberty bell, Caleb and the gang are just starting up the Dartmouth group. Happy Happy

[the_liberty_belle]

Aha!
My mistake, I misunderstood.

[CNHT]

Well whenever you guys decide to hold regular Dartmouth and Plymouth meetings let me know so I can post a recurring event on the NH Liberty Calendar.

[the_liberty_belle]

Will do!
