17, 2012
No prior knowledge required! All are welcome, so feel free to forward the
invite to your friends not in the Google Group. This is a perfect
opportunity to meet other Public Lab-ers, learn about balloon/kite mapping
to bring to your community (or project of interest), share your DIY
skills/knowledge or help us in an effort to map Tidmarsh Farms as they
begin their restoration
project<http://tidmarshfarms.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id...>
.
We're going to start collecting RSVPs here:
http://bostonplotsfall2012.eventbrite.com/
Planning page: http://publiclaboratory.org/wiki/tidmarsh-farms-meetup
We plan on mapping from 12PM until there's no more wind, we run out of
helium or we get hungry.
Re: Food/Potluck. everyone who wants to join in on the potluck, feel free
to bring some kind of side, snack or dessert. We'll figure out the main
dish, once I find out if we have a grill. :) It sounds like we already have
someone offering to bring a delicious leek tart!
Please let me know if you have any questions or ideas!
