From jvcabacus at yahoo.com Tue Oct 29 01:32:14 2019 From: jvcabacus at yahoo.com (Joe VanCleave) Date: Mon, 28 Oct 2019 23:32:14 -0600 Subject: [ABQTypers] November 3rd Fall Type Out At Pennysmiths Paper Message-ID: Dear Fellow Typists; I enjoyed our October meeting at the Albuquerque Press Club, and was sorry to have left early. I hope you all had a good time. For our November meeting, we will be having our semi-annual public Fall Type Out event at Pennysmiths Paper on Rio Grande. It will be held on Sunday, November 3, 2019, from 1PM to 4PM. I expect a very similar turn-out like we?ve had in the last few years. Kevin and I will be setting up around 12 noon, so come early if you can. In case you haven?t attended one of these public events, the meeting is held on the covered breezeway adjacent to Pennysmiths Paper, on folding tables. You should bring some warm layered clothes in case the weather is chilly. We will be having people from all walks of life trying their hand at our typewriters, so it represents a good opportunity for us to interact with people who may not be familiar with typewriter operation. Please bring several machines if you can, and be prepared to interact with a wide variety of people. I will bring some typing paper, but please bring a bit of your own, if you can. I will also bring some correction tape, and will have ribbons available for people to purchase, if needed. We will also have a table set up for electric machines. Typewriters represent to us more than mere writing devices, but a philosophy of sustainability and self-sufficiency in this age of constant distractions. These public events are a great opportunity to spread the word about typewriters as aids to creativity and inspiration. You?ll also find that kids love our typewriters, so be sure to assist the little one in their safe operation. I will be putting notice of this event in the ABQ Journal and Alibi. It?s already been put up on the Facebook Antique Typewriters Group, but I will also publish it as a local event. Let your friends know about this event, it?s a great opportunity to meet new people. In fact, many of our current members first found our group through these public events. I am also soliciting any ideas or advice for making these events more fun and educational. Please contact me directly with any questions, at: jvcabacus at yahoo.com Sincerely, Joe Van Cleave 505-296-5646 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Sunday night is my last performance of The Vagina Monologues, and as I am working early voting days, I need all the "break" time I can get to recoup from our grueling work days. I will rejoin the happy band in December (if we have a meeting??).
