Title: Get Together 26
Post by: MicroNut on Jul 29, 2026, 07:29 PM
The 2026 get together is coming up soon, August 29th! at
First Christian Church
503 N. Main Street Ext Meadville, PA 16335
12-6.

I was wondering who was planning to come.
It is advertised in my church's newsletter. I could advertise elsewhere but with it also being the last day of the county fair, I don't think there will be a lot of response.
I have the week off to go to the fair and the World Coin fair in Pittsburgh so I can be available anytime Friday to set up.

I'm looking forward to meeting everyone, new and old friends and talk about our mutual interests.

Peter (@Steelcitygamer8) and I plan on attending.

I'll try to get a flier together soon.

I'll be leaving home on Friday morning, dropping my wife off a bit west of Pgh, heading up to Cleveland, and heading to Meadville. I'm guessing that we will arrive about mid-afternoon. I will bring some stuff, but nowhere near what I brought last year.

Me neither :) No more filling up the whole table. I'll probably just bring my laptop and my 2 FPGA boards since I am delving into FPGAs

I will be there, though I will not be staying in the area. That is, I will arrive for the meetup and return home that evening. I will bring an array of things.

Previously, there was discussion of an itinerary, to add some structure to the event. I remember discussion about presentations of current projects. Have we given any further thoughts to this?

My thoughts are that the first hour (12-1) should be to just catch up and chat (eat lunch?). Maybe have someone do some presentation at 1P. Not sure how long each block should be.
