Past Nottingham Brony Meet-up - 7th April 2012

Copy paste from Merriweather - UPDATED VERSION

Trottingham Brony Meet-UpIf you are viewing this, then you have been automatically invited to “The Trottingham Brony Meet-Up”…Interested?
Well then, here are the details:
When: April 7th, 2012
Time: 11:30am – 6:30pm
Meeting: Old Market Square, South Parade, Nottingham – NG1 2DT
Venue: Hilton Nottingham Hotel, Milton Street – NG1 3PZ (7 min walk from meeting point)
Capacity: 150 people (200 max.)
Entry Fee: Hah! Well, you’ll be pleased to know it’s FREE!

Extras:
- A separate bar for those who want to wet their whistle.
- Projector Use
- Access to tables and seating
- Tables can be used for merch stalls for those wanting to flog their hard work (if so, can you contact us in advance so that we know you are selling merch and that we can secure a table for you to do so for the meet).
(We are still organising and coming up with more ideas, so expect updates of the extras in the near future.)

Do your bit:- The bar at the venue will be selling drinks of all kinds, alcohol included. Please drink responsibly as we do have those of a younger age to consider as well. Have fun, of course, just know your limits.
- Drinks, merch and such will cost money (duh!), so don’t forget to bring some along with you! We don’t want you to waste away!
- Cosplay is welcomed, of course. Clothes are a must. No naked bronies!
- Donate! Do you have a bit of change lying around? Well, to make 2013 even better, we ask of you to help us so that we can get that financial head start.
- Be friendly! I don’t want to see any fights breaking out over that last Twilight Sparkle sat at the table.
- Talk to people! It’s not a must, obviously, but there’ll be lots there, so if you see someone sat on their own, go socialise and make it a great meet that everyone will remember!
- Please, try not to be late. I can understand traffic jams and train delays but if you’re local, know your distance and plan out your routes. We set off for the venue at 12pm. Still, if you are late, don’t worry too much, I or another member of the team will wait around for a bit.
- This, might I say, is a pretty swanky venue, so please clean up after yourself if you drop any wrappings of any sort. We want to make an impression and keep it all nice and clean.

Pre-meets and After-meets:The pre-meet is for those arriving early to either help set everything up, or because they have awkward times of arrival. This will be before the designated meet-up time of 11:30am.
The after-meet is for those local to Nottingham and can leave later. We won’t put a lot of effort into the organisation with this and will probably discuss it at the meet itself.

Wrap-up:We have been informed by the hotel that we need to be outta there by 6:30pm, no later. So please follow directions when prompted to pack up and leave. We will probably stop at around 6pm to give us time to say our good byes and wrap-up the evening.

Put names to faces:We will have labels for those who want to write their name down, but if you could do that yourself it would save us a lot of time and would be appreciated! I will also try and get around everybody to have a chat!

Transport:We have a Train Station conveniently placed not far away from the meeting point, so train travel is not a massive problem but the cost, but that’s for you to sort out. Car travel is welcomed of course; as there is a parking block just opposite the hotel (we will get prices soon). Bus travel is ideal for those closer to City Centre.
That’s pretty much it, a lot of information, right? Well, a lot of effort has been put into this and we need to fill up those spaces, so please confirm your attendance A.S.A.P! An idea of numbers is always important!

If you think you will have any trouble getting there, please contact me on Skype: IAmMerriweather or you can PM me for my mobile.
Thank you for reading and we hope to see you there!
Keep your eyes peeled for more updates!
