tl;dr: Next Meetup 2/20 @ New City Brewery @ 6pm, Intro to Locksport rescheduled for 2/27 @ River Valley Co-op, new survey coming next week
Hi All,
So the snow was a bit of a no-show this week, but better safe than sorry, I suppose. Our next meetup is Tuesday 2/20 from 6-8 at New City Brewery for casual chat, sharing ideas, and whatever else comes up. The Intro to Locksport Talk & Tinker is rescheduled for the following Tuesday, 2/27 at the Easthampton River Valley Co-op from 6-9 pm, so whether you’re just curious, an expert, or anything in between, come on out! We’ll have the big screen going for easy access to videos and other helpful resources, picks & locks to try out, and lots of great discussion about what it’s all about.
With all the pieces coming together to bring MakeFixHack to the next level, we’re going to be putting out a new survey in the next week to help guide our next steps. This will be a public facing survey that will both help us gauge interest in our existing and the surrounding community and increase awareness of our project, so we’ll have new flyers available at the next Talk & Tinker as well as links to share with friends on whatever platforms they can be found on. More details and links coming in next week’s newsletter, so keep an eye out for it.
If you haven’t joined us on Discord yet, but are looking for a way to communicate with other members of our growing maker community, as well as all sorts of other interesting people in our area, you can connect here: https://discord.com/invite/kgf75wjf There are channels for everything from native plants to alternative transportation, local events and town politics, as well as making, crafting, repair, and so much more. Just remember to stop into #introductions to say hi and help everyone get to know you.
Be safe and keep making things!
