#150yearsofpostcards — October 2, Buffalo, NY area meetup
CITY/REGION: Greater Buffalo, New York area
DATE: Wednesday, October 2, 2019
TIME: 6-7:30pm
MEETUP PLACE: Lake Shore Public Library
Hi, There will be a meetup in Hamburg, NY to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the postcard. We'll be gathering in the meeting room of the Lake
Shore branch of the Buffalo & Erie County Public Library located at S-4857 Lakeshore Road (Route 5) in the town of Hamburg. The library is a blue
brick building with a wavy white roof, made to reflect the appearance of Lake Erie just across the street. It is easily accessible via the Thruway
(Route 90, Milestrip exit or Hamburg exit) or the Skyway. Hope to see you there! Diane Pawelski, Lake View, NY
We'd like to invite everyone organizing meetings around the 150th anniversary of postcards to do something a little bit extra on the day, if possible.
Here are some suggestions:
- Broadcast a little video message from your meeting, either live or by recording a video and uploading it. For example, sing or wish the postcard a
happy birthday, or show the world what your celebrations look like.
- Connect with another meetup happening simultaneously in another location, so that a small moment of connection can be established between the 2 groups of
postcard enthusiasts! Remember to reach out to the respective meetup organizer beforehand, in order to exchange contacts and sort out a suitable time.
- Take pictures and share them with us! Tag them #150yearsofpostcards or send them to us on social media or via email, so that we can share them with the whole community. We would like everyone to feel included and to show the world what the celebrations
of this special milestone look like.
Most of all, we hope you enjoy the event and this special day together — it's a birthday party, so remember to relax and have fun.
