Hey there! Sorry I haven't been chatty here, but I'll be there! As far as I know, it is just Aurora, not any of my little brood.
I think I'm bringing a baked potato bar- potatoes, sour cream, butter, cheese, bacon (or at least bits of it)... whatever else jumps into my shopping cart.
I want to eat caramel bars, so I'll probably bring those, too.
I'll have lots of dice game gifts, and hopefully I'll have a nifty craft to show off. I might ask for a little help pricing it, since there doesn't seem to be anything else like it online. It always excites and frustrates me when I can't find something online that I think sounds cool. How could it be possible that I invented something???? There's a whole world of crafty folk out there!

What are dog stars?
So the whole coloring contest is at the meet? Which is awesome, I just need to be sure I don't need to print something beforehand.
I probably won't make a custom, but I might have time to make a Pony Craft in the theme requested. (Flowers? Baby Blossom?) Can we expand that category? There usually aren't a lot of craft entries, but I will want to show off whatever it is!

Question: What about pets? Can I bring my dog?

I am pretty stoked with my entry for the craft contest. I have to figure out the best way to display it, but I have almost 2 weeks to figure that out, right?
I'm planning to bring hot dogs, plus buns and ketchup/mustard. If you want fancier things on your cheap hot dogs, you should bring it!
My garden is making green beans really well, so I'll probably bring a bowl of them for snacking.

Marla and Ellery are also planning to be there.
I'm excited for the custom contest- is it ok if I enter a plush?
Marla and Ellery aren't on the Arena, right? I don't know their handles, if they are.
Plush for the custom contest is fine by me, so long as Smash approves, since she's the host.
No, Marla and Ellery are on the facebook chat but not here on the arena. Thanks for adding us! --- If Smash wants to go with something catered instead of a potluck, just let me know. Bringing money or a side dish is a lot easier than a crock pot of pork!

I will be there! I'm not sure if Foxfire wants to go, and I'm pretty sure Lincoln won't be there, so put me down for one for now. Marla and Ellery are also planning to be there.
I haven't discovered any new recipes lately, but I'm happy to bring a pulled pork that we can eat in sandwiches or tacos or whatever.

And I'll bring some stuff for the raffle. Ponyqueen, do you have that roll of tickets yet? I know I have one here, but yours is closer.

When I win the megamillions, i am going to buy a hotel. Or a school. And our pony meets will be even more legendary.
About 12 hours to go! I really truly can't wait to see you all! And if you're not able to make it, I will miss you!

You're on the chat! There were links, but it's been a while.

PonyKing and I are pleased to announce our intention to attend this event. We would require but one table, and shall contribute to the banquet, variety of sustenance to be determined in the near future.
Hey- I know last time you had trouble charging your car. My nephew, who lives across the street from the meet, has an electric car, and you can definitely charge there if you need to. Bring a cord? This is for anyone, of course, but you are the ones I know for sure have electric needs. I finally decided- the choice for the main raffle prize will be Munchy, Crumpet, or the Skyflier Porcelain.

We need an adresssssss 😁😁😁
203 Broadway Ave N, New Richland, MN 56072 I'll have some big ponies out front (YAY! I get to use these!) and maybe a sign. I have an extra Pony Meet Sign in my hall, I might as well use it! There are two doors- one at the front, one at the side. Both will be open and available, as long as the weather allows. If we have to close one, we can still prop it open for loading and unloading.

Kazzy, what are breakfast cookies?
Cookies made with peanut butter, bananas, honey, vanilla, salt, cinnamon, raisins, quick oats, and chopped walnuts. Or i can take out the cinnamon and raisins and put in mini chocolate chips, instead. 😁
Both! Do both! One for breakfast, one for a snack after we're all tired!

I'll be there! Which is good, I suppose, since I have the key! I don't know yet how many other humans will be attached to me. I'm also pretty sure Marla will be there with Ellery.
For me, personally, I don't know what food I will be bringing yet. I can do a pulled pork. I made a crock pot venison the other day that was amazing. I guess I can bring some meat! LOL! I'll probably also make a dessert and a side dish. It's easy for me to transport food, so I'll bring a few of the messier things. Leave the chips for people who have to drive all the way from Bemidji.
Address: New Richland City Hall 203 Broadway Ave N, New Richland, MN 56072
I've requested the site from 7 am to 9 pm on September 3. I'll be there at 7, and if there are still people there at 9, I'll be there to shove you out and lock the door. I will have a few people (Lincoln, Foxfire, assorted nephews) to help bring stuff inside. There are two doors, the side door is the easiest for loading. We'll make it as easy as we can. It will be easiest if you park near the door to load/unload, and then move your car to a different spot so others can load/unload. There is parking in the lot that surrounds the building and parking on the street.
Regarding tables, there are 25 banquet-sized tables at the site. If we somehow need more than that, we'll figure something out. For now, if you need a table, we shouldn't have any problem getting you one. Maybe mention if you need a table? I'll start a little tally here: Tables: Aurora: 1 Table Wizzer: 2 Tables Marla: 1 Table Aimee: 1 Table, but if we need an extra she can bring one
Regarding food: We have a full kitchen, with a stove, sink, and real life plates and silverware. We will need to wash these when we are done, so if someone is a dishwashing fool, have we got fun for you. There is a fridge, and I checked the box that said we were not serving alcohol, so no kegs. There is a pop machine in the hallway, but sometimes it is disappointing.
Regarding the site: There are restrooms at the site (with running water! yay!) and at least one entrance is handicap accessible.
Regarding the Raffle: I plan to bring a couple fun things to raffle off. The plan right now is $1 per ticket, and that money goes to help pay for the site. If anyone wants to contribute an item to the raffle, that would be awesome. (Maybe part of your ticket proceeds can get donated to the site?)
Much of the chatter about this is being chatted on Facebook. If you want to join our facebook chat, let me know! Message me here, and we'll go from there.

Hey, all! This will get updated on the first post soon, but for now, here's what we know. Where: Near the Mall of America, at Nimrodel's house When: Saturday, September 4 from 11-5 (set-up from 11-12)
If we go inside, masks will be required. Fortunately, I still have lots of masks that I got bored with and didn't finish, so I can make fresh ones for the meet!
More to come as we figure it out!
ETA: I was just reading through the posts and realized that I am going to have to remember what everyone looks like again. I'm so so sorry. After ten years or whatever, you could think I could remember.
