This is the Event Page for Boston's PLOTS Tidmarsh Meet Up ##Nov 17th 2012 Mapping Meetup There have been a few requests for weekend mapping workshops on the listserv, and so in an effort to create a more active arena for skill sharing and collaboration in the Boston and greater-Boston area, Jeff and I thought it would be fun to organize a meet up -- similar to the recent LEAFEST in Vermont but more informal and for only half of a day. Our proposal for the first (of hopefully many more) Boston PLOTS meet up is **Saturday, November 17**, 2012 at Tidmarsh Farms in Manomet, MA. We'll have more logistical information soon, but let us know if you're available on November 17 to meet up at Tidmarsh Farms for a skill share/mapping session and potential potluck. Feel free to add your name below. ###Details **Date:** Saturday, November 17, 2012 **Location:** 137 Bartlett Road, Manomet, MA 02152 ([TidmarshFarms.com](http://tidmarshfarms.com)) - [Google Maps](http://goo.gl/maps/K3lEp) **Time:** 12PM until there's no more wind, we run out of helium or we get hungry **Contact:** email "plots-boston@googlegroup.com" or call/text Jeff's cell at 415 508 6769 or Jen's cell at 978-302-7908. Note: we'll be meeting at noon at **137 Bartlett Road** -- the proper address should be 139 but 137 is easier to see. The meet up point is a grey industrial barn that does not have a number. ###Interested in participating: * **RSVP** on Eventbrite: http://bostonplotsfall2012.eventbrite.com * Coordinate ridesharing in [this Google Spreadsheet](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0ApHa98Uz3IredHJkVDMwZjZOZElhNDF4SVl0UGMzbnc) * Coordinate potluck in this Google Doc **RSVPs:** * Jeff Warren * Catherine D'Ignazio & Family * Jen Hudon * Caterina Scaramelli * Caroline Howe * Jie Zhang * Anya Domlesky * Kate Sokol * Fiona Luhrmann * Ben Weeks * Sarah Williams * Luisa Beck * Susanna Pho * Kevin Siwoff * Glorianna Davenport * Don Blair ##To dos: * Find nearby coffee shops for sheltering afterwards * how will potluck work (indoor area?
