Can a newbie, know-nothing about wrapping rods fool show up with beer, food, a blank and supplies and perhaps walk out with the seat and grips done, maybe a few guides, by his own hand??

Bump for catching da Billy's eye...

 

Thanks. The original plan was to try and get a place to hold quite qa few builders. The Food Fling location was recommended, but the cost to rent the space is going to require a large amount of people to attend & a fee for each. I made one contact while in Charlotte who said he might have a place to meet at further South NJ.

 

Since I'm not familiar wiht NJ at all, I'll see what he says and go from there. My time is very limited right now (and has been for several weeks) - so if anyone has any ideas it would be greatly appricated.

My fishing club rents the Taylor pavillion for our Xmas party every year. It's right on the boardwalk in Belmar, and about the same size as the Food Fling site. I think the cost is under $100 but you have to supply everything yourself, including tables and chairs.

If it's still the 25th I'm out -- she who must be obeyed just booked a trip to VT for us that weekend. That doesn't suck, but it's not like learning to wrap rods from B40 et alia! HappyWave.gif

Is Staten Island out of the question? It seems centralized enough to me (only cus' I live here). Seriously wouldn't it be just as easy to find some where here and not have travel. I don't know if that works for everyone confused.gif but just a sugestion. If you need me to do some leg work let me know and I'll check the prices of the VFW's in the area.

Rod Building is an addiction, the N.E.R.B.S. help feed that addiction.

This is not going to happen, but I will work with Sudsy on putting this together at a more convenient time next year. I have been given 2 sugestions for an affordable place to meet - thank you SUdsy and Ben Lippen. I've been too busy to coordinate this with such short notice, but hopefully we'll hype it up and get 50 guys for next year.

Billy, Interested in a Fall Date? I joined a boat club that has a decent hall (w/full bar if we want that) and a kegerator for a byo keg... Two big TVs for games too. cwm12.gif
