Fwd: New events: Ballistics day and workshop evening (talks) Options

[Martin Raynsford]

Seems a bit quite round here recently in terms of making stuff, perhaps a few of you could be convinced to knock up a tennis ball flinging device and head on over to Northampton come the August bank holiday. We've had interest from Nottinghack and the London Hack Space so even if you didnt make anything it'll be a good place to socialise and make connections with the other groups.

The date is set for the 29th August at 2.30pm on the racecourse. If anyone wants to come and needs a contact in the field then email me and I'll give you my phone number. I've also included a couple of posters for the day if anyone feld the need to put them up somewhere

NortHACKton ballistics day is a week today, so far we have 2-3
trebuchets some tennis ball mortars and a few secret plans that will
be revealed upon the day (and possibly banned if Matt's last
suggestions are anything to go by). We've got visiting members from
NottingHack and London Hackspace so it should be a good day.
It's 2.30 pm on the racecourse (http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?

You're all welcome to come and join us (I know Jim MacArthur was keen
but waiting for more people from Cambridge).
