Personally, I've made wonderful friends through Makers Local 256, not to mention tons of inspiration and real-world know-how. I don't say that lightly. We rock! You rock!<br></div><div><br></div><div>So, enough of the sappy stuff. Here's how to help us celebrate:</div><div><br></div><div>What: ML256 Turns 10!<br></div><div>When: 6:30pm, March 10th, 2018</div><div>Where: The shop! Clearly!

thanks, Norm!), a birthday cake for the makerspace (boy that has a nice cadence to it), and the vending machine will be on free-vend. Come hang out, eat, reminisce about the days of yore, and ruminate about your projects-yet-to-be.<br></div><div><br></div><div><b>Also, we need volunteers</b> to bring decorations and dinnerware. If you would like to bring something, please respond to this thread and specify what you are bringing. If you're looking for a theme or guideline, pick birthday stuff, but anything will do! <br></div><div><br></div><div>So come on down to the shop as we band together, as we look forward to the next 10 years of <i>us</i>: <span class="inbox-inbox-st"></span>more circuitry, more woodworking, more software, more cosplay, more everything.<br></div><div>More stories. More making.</div><div><br></div><div>See you there.</div><div>--</div><div>Jake<br></div></div></div></div>
