Default Montreal Meeting V 2.0

Hello again to all,
I'm pleased to announce there will be another meeting/seminar in the Montreal area coming up. It will be open to all members here and will be a great chance to meet fellow straight shavers and share your experiences face to face. There will also be a honing demonstration (by request) and an oportunity to try out some hones and stuff I'll be bringing. I also encourage all those attending to bring any equipment they feel is unique and worth sharing. All questions and requests are welcome.

This time, I also suggest we all bring our soaps, creams, brushes etc. if anyone wants to trade.

There will, once again, be a door prize supplied by me. Last time, other people offered up prizes, and I thought that was awsome. There is, however, no obligation to do so.


Date & Time:
Saturday, august 23rd, 10 am to 1 pm

Duration:
3 hours

Charge:
$10 (to cover space rental)

Location:
Good Shepherd Lutheran Church (fellowship hall)
1389 Victoria Avenue
Saint Lambert, J4R 1R4
(45°29'25.84"N , 73°29'40.59"W for those with google earth)


Please PM me to RSVP or if you have any questions/requests.
Special thanks (once again) to Richard for helping to organize this.

GREAT!!!

Hope I can make it, will do my best.

And it would be nice to have a shaving demonstration if time permits. See someone (expert) doing it for real might teach us some helpful tricks.

See you soon.

So far I actually have less confirmed attendees than last time
I'm hoping we have some drop-ins again.

Awsome that you're bringing stuff. I'll have some samples and giveaways too. I'm also bringing some wood so if there's any other restorers interested in trading materials we can do that too.

I'm looking forward to this.

Maybe because it's summer?

Personally, I can hardly wait.

Dan,
Thank you for a very informative demo. Was a real pleasure meeting everyone. I will be more than happy to help organize the next one if you wish. Jacques, thanks once again for your kind gifts. I tried out the hanging strop and it is a real pleasure to use.
