CITY/REGION: Kennesaw, Georgia MEETUP PLACE: JOANN Creator Space at 501 Roberts Ct. Kennesaw, GA 30144 DATE: Saturday June 3rd TIME: 1:00-5:00 ET MEETUP PLAN: Meet & make friends with local Postcrossers and sign/stamp as many cards as you want. Bring your go-to decorating supplies as well as stamps & addresses if you have recipients ready to go.
There will be a take some/leave some swap area with postcards, washi, stickers and anything else from the Postcrossing universe that you’d like to add.
As of yet, there aren’t any specially-designed meetup cards, but if you have a design in mind to commemorate the first metro Atlanta meetup that any of us can remember, feel free to share!
Kennesaw is a bustling college town with a little something for everyone. No shortage of retail or restaurant choices. If you’d like to make a day of it, I found a car show sponsored by Kennesaw Police benefitting Special Olympics that is taking place at Kennesaw First Baptist Church from 8:00-12:00.
That would be a hike, but I literally thought the same thing about the meetup in Pensacola, FL. Do a search under the “explore” tab. I was pleasantly surprised how many people in my city have accounts.
Hi! Welcome to Postcrossing! I’m viewing the forum from my phone, and there’s a rectangle that said RSVP. Once I tapped it, it changed to “going”. The rectangle is blue now. I can’t remember if it was blue before or not.
Hi! Thanks for the reply. I wonder since I am new & don’t have postcards registered yet, maybe it’s not allowing me the RSVP option? As there’s not one.
Awww. Aussies are the best!! Ours has just a little bit of border collie mixed in.
WOW. I can’t believe we’re going regional! I’m bringing samples of some of my favorite washi tapes along with some postcards and stickers that I don’t see myself using, though they might be treasure to someone else. A sort of swap area? You can just bring yourself and we’ll be ecstatic to see you!
I’m still debating on if I will make the drive from Knoxville! I will definitely let y’all know one way or the other before June 3. I am hoping to make it, I was SO excited to see a meetup in driving distance! This is the first one I have seen in diving distance of Knoxville since I started Postcrossing last summer!
@thetinylibrarian I saw on a TikTok recently that there were a few others in the Knoxville area. I was thinking about trying to plan one for here but I’m VERY self-conscious about my ability to do so!
I would have loved to have gone!! I’m in the restaurant industry so Friday and Saturdays are no gos for us. I wonder if you would consider Sunday to meet everyones needs?
Hi again, Friends! The forum defaulted to GMT without me realizing, but we’ll be sticking with the time from the original description (1:00-5:00 ET).
The take some/leave some table is taking shape, and Lyndzforg designed a fabulous commemorative card! Can’t wait to meet you guys!
It looks like I’ll be able to make it. I don’t have the tourney brackets yet, but we start early so I should be there well before the meeting ends.
