Northampton Ma. USA meet up May 17th

vievetrick · 05-01-2008, 05:36 AM

So I posted a call to anyone in the Western Massachusetts area or beyond that would be interested in a meet up https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/gatherings-events/23245-western-massachus...april-may.html Now that it is a few weeks away I wanted to say we are a go for Saturday May 17th. This will not be specific to Pentax as I have put a call out to other photo forums and have got a few people showing interested. Of course I would be happier if more Pentax folks could make it

.

City of Northampton: Home is a great little artsy town. Lots of things to shoot and we should have no problem having fun. I want to say I am not offering any prizes or free give away. Just a fun few hours and a chance to meet the folks we chat with here and maybe learn something new.

The plan is to meet in front of the Calvin Theater at around 9am

The Calvin Theatre and Performing Arts Center
19 King Street
Northampton, MA 01060
(413) 586-8686

From the East or West
* Take the Mass Pike (I-90) to Exit 4 (I-91), following signs towards Holyoke.
* Take I-91 North to Exit 18 (Northampton Center Exit).
* At the end of the ramp, you will take a left onto Pleasant Street (a.k.a. Route 5 North).
* Take Pleasant Street approximately one mile to the stoplight at the intersection with Main Street in the center of town.
* Continue straight through the light. (Here Pleasant Street becomes King Street.) Calvin Theatre is on immediate right at 19 King Street.
From the North
* Take I-91 South to Exit 20 (Northampton/Hadley Exit).
* Follow the ramp onto King Street.
* Take King Street approximately one mile to the light in the center of town at the intersection with Main Street.
* The Calvin Theatre is directly on your left just before the intersection.
From the South
* Take I-91 North to Exit 18 (Northampton Center Exit).
* At the end of the ramp, you will take a left onto Pleasant Street (a.k.a. Route 5 North).
* Take Pleasant Street approximately one mile to the stoplight at the intersection with Main Street in the center of town.
* Continue straight through the light. (Here Pleasant Street becomes King Street.) Calvin Theatre is on the immediate right at 19 King Street.

I am really looking forward to this even if it is just me and my Nikon buddy. If you have any questions post here or send me an email or PM.

Thanks and look forward to seeing you.
