!northamptonbronies Thanks everypony for coming and bringing tasty things and awesome things and offering the use of your house and GENERALLY BEING AWESOME! Just made it home after some shopping and driving through a nice little thunderstorm. Gonna get settled and then upload pics/vids and write up everything. Second meetup will probably happen in the fall on Smith College campus!

!northamptonbronies The Northampton, MA brony meetup is not getting cancelled! Yes, a hurricane exists, but it's not going to get to Western MA until Sunday. Currently there's only a 30% chance of rain predicted for Amherst/Northampton! Nothing worse than your genetic New England summer rain/thunderstorm. We will meet next to the Academy of Music at 2PM as before if it's not raining horribly, and if it does rain we will move to Harold's Ice Cream. Unless I91 is closed off completely (highly unlikely since I've driven on it in heavy snowstorms before) I will be there so there will definitely be a meetup! To me, "rain date" means "let's have another meetup next week or something" so don't worry if you think the weather's too bad for you to make this one. Feel free to e-mail me at sparklepeep at gmail.com or text me at 802-387-0413 if you're lost or if you're not sure where everypony is. I got myself a smartphone.

!northamptonbronies i'm thinking we should make a rain date just in case seeing as there's a hurricane coming.
Friday, 26-Aug-11 22:14:08 UTC from web -
!northamptonbronies ya ok. I'll be there unless flooding starts to occur.
Friday, 26-Aug-11 20:12:28 UTC from web -
!northamptonbronies Yeah, I'd feel real bad if we just barged into MM. At least if we are in Harold's they could get some business from us. So let's make that our rain location! Regardless, I will be at the park area around 1:30 or so. If it is raining I will stick around and direct folks. Also, am in the process of making a batch of poni buttons which I prolly will have to sell (at cost).

!northamptonbronies Modern Myths is busy on Saturdays, I believe. I think Herolds might be the place, seems like it could hold us all, at least temporarily?
Friday, 26-Aug-11 12:02:56 UTC from web -
!northamptonbronies those two are good ideas but also Modern Myths or A to Z might work. I know some employes at A to Z. But also maybe somewhere around Thornes market might work. If measures are desperate I have an uber backup spot which I shall not mention unless needed

!northamptonbronies Wow this is gonna be epic. Got e-mails from five folks who saw the announcement on ED. That with @rainbowsprinkles @zslasher000 and @trotpilgrim and friends (and me I guess) it'll be almost like 20 people!
Friday, 26-Aug-11 01:44:25 UTC from web-
!northamptonbronies Gonna need a rain location, though. Anypony got ideas of where we can at least gather indoors for a little bit to decide where to go? How about Harold's or the garage?

A brony on dA wrote to me about the !northamptonbronies meetup and it turns out that not only do we live in the same town but I literally ran into him in the dark once. Like, physically. Bam.

@sparklepeep !northamptonbronies Awesome, great idea! And thoughts for activities, aside from awesome arts and crafts? I was thinking we could watch some PMVs, maybe hold a spiderses reading?

!northamptonbronies One week until the first meetup omigosh! Let's meet next to the Academy of Music in the park-ish area at 2PM. We will sort out where to go (if necessary) afterwards. I personally think it'd be awesome if we spent at least an hour in that park so we can be all like "HEY NOHO PONIES ARE INVADING YOUR PERSONAL SPACE!!!" @rainbowsprinkles will bring coloring pages and activity books and cupcakes. I will bring a stash of coloring supplies (I am a teacher and have a shelf full of them) as well as some pony buttons to give away. If possible I will bring a button maker and some supplies so folks can make their own buttons from colored pages. I will get some Vermont apple cider and if possible cider donuts. Also: I will bring a FlipHD for documentation purposes, and will have supplies in case folks wanna embroider ponies. =)

I got myself a Twilight/Celestia throw blanket today! <3 Also, a few activity/sticker books for the brony meetup !northamptonbronies
Monday, 15-Aug-11 04:28:02 UTC from web-
@rainbowsprinkles Yay!

@rainbowsprinkles I'll bring my activity books and some buttons to !northamptonbronies too.

@sparklepeep oooh! Buttons!

!northamptonbronies 3 of my friends confirmed they're gonna be there. Two of them are under 21.
Saturday, 13-Aug-11 23:09:13 UTC from web -
!northamptonbronies I've sent a message to Equestria Daily, hopefully that will generate some more interest!
Monday, 08-Aug-11 16:32:42 UTC from web -
!northamptonbronies Here's a proposal: on 8/27, we meet in the park like area next to the Academy of Music around 2pm. We'll figure out how big the herd is and then we will either move to @rainbowsprinkles friends' house or to the Moan and Dove or ???.
Monday, 08-Aug-11 03:43:58 UTC from web-
@sparklepeep !northamptonbronies Yeah, we should send Equestria Daily a message, let's get as many ponies as we can! As I said earlier, we'll be making cupcakes and there will be coloring books! Any other ideas for activities?
-
@rainbowsprinkles !northamptonbronies I think we should have a massive Winter Wrap Up and/or At The Gala sing-a-long. I think I'll bring apple cider.
-
@sparklepeep !northamptonbronies that is a fabulous idea!

!northamptonbronies Hay guys! It was great to meet those of you that could make it to the Boston meetup yesterday! Unfortunately your first Northampton meetup is scheduled the same day I'll be staffing BroNYCon so I'll be busy, but I hope to make it to a future event; you're only an ~hour drive from me! Speaking of which, we're just starting up an Albany, NY area meetup group, hoping to have some fun times. Join up if you're willing to make the hour drive over here for some herd mentality now and then. http://www.meetup.com/Bronies-Albany/

!Northamptonbronies My friends and I are all >21. There's eight in my group, including myself. His place can accommodate a few, we can bring in some more tables and whatnot if needed. The more the merrier, I believe, so if you have a way of getting more people then I believe it would be appreciated.
Monday, 01-Aug-11 01:04:52 UTC from web -
!northamptonbronies Also is anypony in the herd so far <21 years old? If not we could meet at a bar in the mid afternoon when it is not crowded.
Sunday, 31-Jul-11 16:20:52 UTC from web -
!northamptonbronies How many ponies are we looking at here? Do we want to advertise this? Am trying to see what kind of space we need here.
Sunday, 31-Jul-11 16:19:27 UTC from web -
!northamptonbronies The 27th it is!
Sunday, 31-Jul-11 15:59:09 UTC from web -
!northamptonbronies @sparklepeep Sadly, the 13th is bad for them. August 27th works for all of us, how about you?
Sunday, 31-Jul-11 00:35:06 UTC from web-
@rainbowsprinkles !northamptonbronies The 27th might work for me, too. None of my friends can do the 13th.
