Awesome!

Well it is getting closer to when we can book the room!  It can be booked 12 weeks ahead so hopefully we can book on May 14th!  (I didn't book RIGHT away last year and we lost our first choice date)

omg You've got to get the date! I've already booked airline tix! :freak:

Oh don't worry- we will get the date-  I booked a couple of weeks after the slot opened last time, THIS time I'll book the same day !   Plus I know a lot of people have made travel plans already so even if we can't get the location (very very unlikely) there are back-up plans.   Another library- or even my house! (I have a HUGE crafting area now that would be perfect).

Also-  people-  the things I usually have for the Pony Party are very low key!  If anyone wants to add some more organization/events/projects-  please do so!!!!    I will absolutely NOT be hurt if someone seizes control!  Otherwise- the way it usually goes is we sit around and swap/sell/buy ponies, chat, color, craft, snack-  there is a brief pause for the custom contest voting and winner announcement, another for the coloring contest voting and winners,   aaaand-  that's about it.

Does anyone have a projector screen?  It would be pretty cool if we could project a MLP movie!

Would anyone be interested in a gift swap game? We play a fun one at our regular meets. It's way fun.

A gift swap sounds fun! As long as the budget isn't too high. :) I'm actually thinking of trying to customize a pony for this.

Oh wow, i'm sorry to report that the Maple Valley room was IMMEDIATELY BOOKED on August 6th- that is the day we wanted it.

I'm pretty bummed, I know that area was really close for many of you.

How do people feel about having the pony party in Seattle?  I actually have a nice large space and actually, we could then put on MLP movies.  However, you will need to PM me or email me for my address.  I live in North Beacon Hill, cross streets 15th and Hanford. Parking is okay, or you can get there from the light rail, 36, 60 and 39)

We can also set up the swap meet in the yard, I imagine August 8th is probably going to be pretty nice.

I'll check into some alternate locations as well...

OMG I just looked up Seattle park reservations, picnic reservations- and the cheapest one for one of those "shelter" things at the park is $130!

There is a library room available in White Center-  but... it's not very scenic out there, and kind of far for everyone, and not on the light rail or bus lines.

So I'm thinking my place!  We just had a party for 50 here so I think we can accommodate a  pony party even with a good turn out.

Looking around, it seems most of the large rooms are booked at every King County library. People must have caught on to how cheap it is to rent them (free).  I think there are probably a lot more events in the summer when kids are out of school...  but I had no idea how competitive it would be.  We're still 3 months out and reservations JUST opened!

I just stumbled on our Facebook group-  TOTALLY had forgotten about that.  I'll keep it updated until the party!

So there's a button making shop in my town that just started offering tshirt printing and are running a promo for $10 a shirt if we can get an order of 10 or more! Would anyone be interested in ordering a pony meet shirt?? I'll cross post in the Facebook group too.

Hmm, are you sure she asked to be added? I just checked and there are no pending requests.  If you'd like to send me her name on facebook or email address, I'll be happy to manually add her.
