Description

Join us up near Lake Ontario in Western New York (PRACTICALLY the Finger Lakes Region) at Lakeside Beach State Park! We'll have clue books available for folks that need them, so don't worry about printing up anything inside the park. This is always a family friendly occasion and we always have surprise out-of-town guest stars, so don't miss out. This year will have our usual double feature...a day event and a night one! The overnight camping experience will take place at the same park as the day event, making getting back and forth MUCH easier. If you'll be staying with us (whether for Saturday only or Friday and Saturday, be sure to ALSO sign up here so we know to expect you at the campgrounds: http://www.atlasquest.com/showinfo.html?gEventId=913

As usual, LBNY T-shirts and patches are still available! The shirts are through Cafe Press so you can order them yourselves at http://www.cafepress.com/lbwny and the patches (based on the logo from the shirts, but with more color) will be available at the event. They're $2 each, but if you want yours sooner, send that plus $1 Shipping & Handling via Paypal (contact us for our Paypal address!).

Update 6/14/09: We've picked all things astronomical for our theme this year (which means the skies, the stars, the planets, etc.). If you want to carve a stamp series, let us know! We can include it in the clue books we'll make in August.
