San Luis Obispo/five Cities/central Coast California

[arandur]

Fountain Pen Day is coming soon, and I am curious, if anyone located in the San Luis Obispo/Five Cities/Central Coast of California area is interested in a meetup on Friday, November 2, 2012.

Post here or send me a PM, and we can get something arranged!

Depending on my work load I might be interested, where and when were you thinking? I live in the Five cities area and SLO or south county would be easiest for me.

If late afternoon or in the evening works best for work schedules, then perhaps sometime after 6pm. As for location, I was thinking in downtown San Luis Obispo might be the best, perhaps at one of the cafes/coffee houses.

I am watching you and your progress. I want to know what you do. We are sponsoring an event 11/2/13 which will include a live calligraphy contest, calligraphy class and fountain pen art work contest. Although the Calligraphy sessions will the live, we are thinking the fountain pen work be submitted in advance.

That sounds great. The meetup I am arranging is relatively informal ...more of a time to bring pens and inks...to show, share, trade, sell, or anything people want to do. Plus, I hope that by holding it in a public place, we can attract some people and promote fountain pens to them.

 

If there is enough response, it might become a regular meeting, as this area of CA does not have its own pen club.

Good work and good luck. I hope you will allow me to follow your communications. I wish you could use the Madonna Inn as a place to meet. The name would self promote your event.

Bump. Do we have anyone else interested?

[arandur]

Having received only one response, I think that this will have to be postponed until a later date than tomorrow.

Hang in there. WE are still working on next years event. We are securing a large room to house the competitions.

I would LOVE to be a part of a FP group up here in SLO county. I would happily travel to any SLO county city; currently I'm in south county. I hope this idea of a group or meetup is still active! *fingers crossed!*

Sadly, I just moved from SLO county about two months ago, but perhaps there are other members, who are still interested in meeting!

Is there anyone on the Central Coast (SLO, 5-cities, North County) interested in meeting up?  I know this is an old thread but thought I'd give it a try..
