Andy Anderson 25 Posted April 4, 2018 Report Share Posted April 4, 2018 It is time to start thinking about the 11th annual Virginia Mini. In past we have quite often held it the third Saturday in May. If we stick to that date the mini will be on Saturday May 19. That date is flexible depending on availability of a meeting place. As of yet no one has offered to host the mini this year. If anyone is interested in hosting the mini now is the time to volunteer. Yes, there is some work involved in hosting the mini. You will need to secure a location and some other items needed that day. If you are interested in hosting the mini please contact me via this thread or by private message.

Paul Glancy 10 Posted April 17, 2018 Report Share Posted April 17, 2018 William, I met you last summer in Tenn. at Christmas EXPO where you were teaching a class on over the top displays. I am the one who asked the question what did your new wife think of your massive hobby. I got a good laugh. I have followed you from Christmas Carolina to your giant Park display for the fire dept. and your talent and imagination is unbelievable.. There are about 20-25 of us who have been meeting in Ashland Va. and Richmond Va. for the last four years. Matt has been renting for 5 dollars a person a private school gym just off I-95 in Ashland. Every year we look for new opportunity to find a new host. We have had three members compete and two members win the great Christmas Light Fight. Most members drive less than two and one half hours We all bring food ,enjoy a great lunch share a few videos give some big hugs and by four we are heading for home. I worry that you are over four hours west from central Va .William you are more than welcome to stay with me in Fredericksburg if you come to Ashland. Andy I am hoping i haven't chased William back to NC. Link to post Share on other sites
wbottomley 15 Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 Oh no. I had a great time at the Expo with everyone. I love Q&A sessions. It's a way we all can learn. If I make it up there to one... I may have to take you up on that offer. But... I'll probably have one in my neck of the woods for everyone in this region. Link to post Share on other sites
Stephen Blue 25 Posted April 19, 2018 Report Share Posted April 19, 2018 3rd weekend in May would work well for me. On 4/12/2018 at 10:06 PM, Andy Anderson said: Any interest in hosting the mini? I could likely come up with a facility down my way (Gloucester or Deltaville) if people want to travel this way - I'd have to check on the availability of the facilities I'm connected to. But I really like the RVA location as being very central to get the most people involved. Link to post Share on other sites
