I'd like to do a day-trip (Saturday only). I'm planning to bring kids
along (one 8-yr-old plus a scattering of 16/17-year-olds).

Hi, Folks.
As Eric mentioned in a previous email, I have insanely--um, I mean
enthusiastically--volunteered to be the R-SPEC Cruise Director--um,
I mean Social Committee Chair. My main goal is to plan a retreat in
the upcoming year. I will send out a survey in the near future to
get your input on that. Also, the Board and I discussed planning
some R-SPEC social gatherings this year--for example: movie
night(s), theater night(s), picnic(s), or even just meeting up at a
local coffee shop or pub once in a while. Something like a
progressive dinner (or dessert) might be fun. A mystery dinner might
also be fun. Our own novel writing month (I vote for June or July)
might be fun. I encourage you to send me your ideas.
Speaking of movies: is anyone interested in going to see The
Adjustment Bureau? If so, let me know if you'd like to meet up. We
could plan to hang out for a bit after to talk about the movie.
Also: coming up soon is EerieCon. It will be held April 29-May 1 at
the Days Inn Niagara Falls. Registration is $40 until April 18 and
$45 after that date and at the door. Here is a link to the website: http://www.eeriecon.org/2011/
Eric and I decided to go for the whole weekend. (It was cheaper to
use a AAA discount and pay in advance than to use the Con rate,
btw.) Anyone else planning to go? If you're going for the weekend,
Eric and I have room in our car. A few folks mentioned going up on
Saturday and carpooling. If you are (thinking of) going and would
like to ride with others or have room in your car for others, let me
or the group know and we'll try to arrange something.
Lastly, I don't know how soon it will be, but I'm also hoping to set
up an online calendar to keep track of R-SPEC and community events,
promote events, issue invitations, track RSVPs, etc.
Don't forget we set the clocks ahead tonight...
