I believe the 6th of August 2016 would be better since that is a Saturday. ;) I'll start working on some design ideas. :)

I'd love to plan to go next year. It's a bit of a drive but since I've got time to plan ahead maybe I can work it out. I'd have my girls in tow. I'm sure they'd love it. How many people usually attend out of curiosity. I've never been to one and tend to shy away from groups of people I don't know but a pony meet seems like it would be fun. Plus I'd love to see some of the talented artists work firsthand.
Also is there a brag or pic thread from this years meet so I can peek through and see how it went?

It would be great if you could come Jenny! Attendance varies- usually between about 12 and 20-something, this year was on the low end of attendance.  It's never too crazy, more like a friendly gathering, we swap ponies, do some crafts, visit and eat food :D

I didn't think to bring my camera this last time so I don't have photos!  But here is an album from our first year to give you an idea:   https://picasaweb.google.com/troellchen66/PonyS

I think there's actually a pretty good range of ages! Some of us bring our kiddos too.  And let's be honest, we're really all about 10 at heart. ;)

I'm sure you wouldn't feel out of place Ponyshoes. I've not been to a meet but everything I've heard of pony people says they're all very welcoming and accepting of all ages. The meet seems like a very laid back friendly environment.

Definitely a huge range of ages- you are not going to feel out of place- it is a very informal fun event, in fact people often bring their moms, friends, kids-
