Northeast Chiff and Fipple gathering?

Hi all-- it’s pretty much time to think about the third annual Northeast gathering of the Chiff and Fipple clan. Both previous outings were loads of fun and everyone seemed to have a great time.
Any suggestions as to time and place?
Walt Sweet has kindly offered the Sweetheart grounds, where we met last year. Lovely spot, with a swimmable creek and tours of the Sweetheart factory. Plus, there is a dance hall on the grounds where we could go in case of rain.
If people wanted to come to the NY Capital district, there’s a park called Peeble’s Island right at the junction of the Hudson and Mohawk rivers which is really nice. They have one covered pavilion and I could check if it’s still available at any time this summer.

I’m taking a summer school course which meets at odd weekend intervals. Once dates start getting suggested, I’ll chime in again on that.

Let’s do it!

Gaah! Don’t tell me you’re going to do it while I’m on vacation this time!

However, since I haven’t touched my whistle since the last time we met, that might not be such a bad thing. I’ve been dulcimating more than whistling (mostly because the community is more accessible for me), and even that is a generous assessment.

Go for it, let’s see if it’s in driving distance and I will try to make it!! Maybe Tyghress can give me some knitting tips…

I would totally consider driving up there.

Do it!

I already posted in the Whistle forum thread about my availablity. One more thing, L.E McCullough hosted a session around here in April (I think) and asked when the next one was going to be. So I think he may come again.

Since I’m in the process of moving up to NY, maybe I’ll be able to make it this year. That would be very cool! :party:
