I am new to California...just moved here from Colorado. Looking for like-minded pen accumulators to have occasional gathering to share stories, inks, paper...

Pen Posse gathers regularly in Millbrae... Like, next Sunday (01 May) for example!

 

Were you a part of the Colorado Posse? I got to be there when that group was birthed!

A ship can have a berth at the pier and I suppose you could say it berthed there.

 

A Posse is born.

What's the "drill"?....do we pay for venue/take a collection? Or just expected to buy food at Cafe?

Do we have access to a sink, for sharing inks? (If so, I bring inks, vials, etc.)

 

Looking forward to meeting!

I'm curious too! I live up in Oakland, but might be able to make the trek down to Milbrae. I haven't been to one of these before.

All you pay for is is your lunch.

Bathroom is near by, for washing and dumping ink.

Pretty much anything goes, within reason, just don't wreck the place.

Lots of discussions and "show and tell."

Just don't get to close to Farmboy, he has a big box of NOS modern FP, RB, and Ballpoints for the Posse. His head is likely to explode! :yikes:

If Gary starts dancing on the tables, it's best to just back away and let him do his thing...

I also called a special Pen Posse for the Flax Pen Faire on May 21st. Flax has now moved to Oakland, so this will be the first time we meet at the new location.

 

There is also a Pan Pacific Pen Club Meeting in Foster City on May 14th.

 

We'll skip Mother's Day weekend but probably have another Pen Posse on the 29th. I'm still working on the winery Pen Posse. I'll have more details once I talk to Phil Moss.

I am in the east bay. Any news of meetings still going on.

Yes. Last week was a Pan Pacific Pen Club meeting in Fremont. This week is an event at Peyton Street Pens. Next week there will most certainly be something at Peters in Millbrae. If you want to scare the locals just start a thread and call a Pen Posse for Peters Cafe on Sunday from 1 PM to ? Like a flash mob, people will just show up.

The next normal Pen Posse meeting will be May 7th at Peter's Cafe in Millbrae. I'll make the formal announcement later in the week.

Watch this section for posts by AltecGreen or someone else.

 

We are coming up on the SF Pen Show, so meets will be happening more often as we get closer to the pen show date.
