 Based on the last full weekend before
 Columbus day weekend here are the conflicts
 Anyone please feel free to check my
 calendar research.
 Hope this helps

  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,--
