 Hello
 Tim,
 I looked at the
 calendar and at CAMA's website. They schedule their Fall
 Festival on the last full weekend of September. We
 traditionally schedule Steam-Up for the Saturday before
 Columbus Day weekend. This year they were the same weekend.
 Not sure how often this calendar fluke will happen. (
 someone want to check?)
 For 2019 our date should be October
 5th and the CAMA Fall Festival the weekend
 before.
 We probably
 can let the boiler cool down on this steam-up before
 planning the next one but Oct 5th would fit with tradition
 of the past 20 years or so.

 I too am quite pleased
 that things went so well. One thing we have already
 discussed is changing the date. The steam and air tables
 were sparsely populated this year, in part due some
 exhibitors doing Kent instead of us. It was also the Sound
 Lab reunion In New London some folks went there instead. I
 worked there for 23 years and wished I could be at the
 luncheon.Tim

 Hi Everyone, 
 What a great year at Steam
 up!  
 All of the
 volunteers, our own crew, the Boy Scouts, Tom Day and his
 friends, and our new head chef Steve all deserve a great big
 pat on the back and a thank you for helping out with such a
 great day!  Thank you to everyone who helped clean up and
 break down the day too, we're really blessed to have
 such a dedicated group.
 While it's all still fresh in
 our minds I'd like to try and collect any data possible
 from the day as it will help with planning for next year. 
 We have great data on exactly what was sold for food.
 Knowledge on exactly what came and went in the way of coffee
 and donuts is much less certain.  I don't know exactly
 how many donuts were purchased and left over.  Jeff, if you
 know what the count of boxes was, or simply the dollar
 amount of the order it would be helpful.  Ken, if you could
 check with Claudia on how many dozen were left over, and
 which varieties seem to sell out quickly that would be
 helpful.  Also, I should have turned the counter function
 of the coffee pot on so it would keep track of how many pots
 were brewed. I didn't.  If the new larger cups were
 used almost exclusively then I could count how many are
 missing from the case.  Suzy, it would be helpful too to
 know what you had bought for cream and milk to have that
 info for next year.
 Also, any comments that anyone has
 about what needs improvement or anything particularly good
 or bad from our visitors would be great to hear
 about.
 Thanks,--
