New York April Meet-Up

[Calzone]

I'd hate to miss a month, but because of the religous holidays, I'm thinking we need to have this months Meet-Up Saturday April 30th.

I'm also thinking that Puck Fair is a great location. The only bad thing about this date is that the cute waitress works on Sundays.

The time will be at 1:00 PM

Sounds fine to me... but I'm also fine with May 1 if that's an option...

Technically May 1st would mean that we skipped another month. Seems like we skip one per year. Not a big deal.

So the next Meet-Up is either the last weekend in April or the first weekend in May depending if we have it on a Saturday or a Sunday.

No big deal either way... let's see what everyone else wants. Remember the FEbruary and March meet-ups were pretty close to each other time wise.

Sundays are generally a lot easier for me. I have no problem waiting til the 1st of May.

Maybe we can do a group April shoot out in Queens or something and that'll be the meetup for this month.

I'm down for that... or up closer to your neighborhood.

There we go. Then the next Meet-Up will be Sunday May 1st at Puck Fair at 1:00 PM.

We anxious fast paced New Yorkers again skip a month, but last month we kinda had two Meet-Ups.

I have no problem with doing it in May but still calling it the April Meet-up. It is the same event, just in a different month.

Yeah, Im down for that too. We can start up in Marble Hill in the Bronx and cross over into Manhattan then continue down through the Heights into Harlem.

 

[jsrockit]

That sounds great Andre...

I'm sure I'd be ready to do this before the April meet-up.

Hello there! I'm a fellow NYC citizen barely joined the forum just before going off to Hong Kong for 5 weeks. Reading along here, wondering if the NYC group is mostly guys? Would I be cramping your style if I came to the meet-up one of these days 🙂 ?

 

[andredossantos]

The group is predominantly male but there are several female members as well.

You definitely would not be cramping our style, all are welcome!

 

[jsrockit]

Would I be cramping your style if I came to the meet-up one of these days 🙂 ?

No, not at all. You (and anyone else) are welcome to come to our meet-ups at Puck Fair or when we go out to photograph as well. Invite anyone you know who may want to go as well.

If we're going to mess with the calendar, next year let's skip the entire month of February. No, I don't mean the get-together. I mean the actual month itself. The weather is generally bleak and unfriendly so why not just move from January to March. For those of you into calendars, ours comes from Pope Gregory in 1582. Maybe it's time for something new. I nominate Cal to be Pope of the RFF NYC Calendar Reformation Conclave. Let's eliminate a month of Winter and add those days to Spring and Summer! Go Cal!

Turns out April 30 would have been better for me...

 

[HLing]

Thanks andresdossantos and jsrockit for the welcome!

 

[jsrockit]

No problem HLing ... it's usually a good time.

I've never had a bad time and I think I went to every one we ever had.

Generally we tend to drool over gear and laugh a lot. Also there are many talented people to inspire you. These meet-ups have helped me become a better shooter, but the GAS can kill you.

Anyway over all a lot of fun. That's why we tend to have them 11 months out of a year. Sometime inadvertently we skip a month, but its never planned.
