We're all set for the next FrankenFest on April 2nd 2022.
We had about 60 attendees at the last event - which I thought was perfect for our first event in the "new era".
This time around I'd like to encourage everyone to spread the word. Hopefully we'll see some new faces which will help the sales.

It would also be great if some folks could step forward and put on some seminars.
It doesn't have to be anything fancy - things like turntable setup, building cables, explaining streaming would be just perfect.
EDIT:
The mask mandate in West Boylston has lifted:

Here is the "for Sale / Trade" thread for AK subscribers:
Bill aka SpikeDart is our local liaison and he'll be keeping an eye on the local situation.
Once again we are renting the Masonic Lodge. It's a really cool venue with plenty of parking.
Address:
12 Church Street
West Boylston, MA 01583
We have the facility all day so the doors will be open at 10 AM for setup and we’ll wrap it all up by 5PM.
Obviously, we’ll be asking people to stay and clean up any mess.
Admission will be once again be a paltry $5 each - if you’re bringing along disinterested people (kids or significant others) they’ll be free - but anything you can contribute will certainly be appreciated.
You should enter through the front door and pay your admission fee after which you can use the side doors to bring in treasures for sale in the lower level function room.
There is parking in the side lot, on the street and in the field behind the building (if it's wet we'll need to take that into account.
We'll want to minimize on street parking so as to not upset the neighbors - but we can use what we need as necessary.
The upper level auditorium area will be used for auditioning systems.
There is also a medium sized and smaller side room that can be used for auditioning systems.
The lower level will be used for selling and there’s a kitchen area.
There are a limited number of tables - if you partake of them only take one - if you can you should bring your own as well.
Note - at he last event we had a vendor that refused to wear the mandated mask. In the unlikely event that masks are required that person will be asked to set up outside - we can't afford to get into trouble with our host.
There are a limited number of power outlets - if you need power for a system bring extra extension cords and power strips.
Appropriate snacks/drinks are of course appreciated.
Beer should be OK in moderation - but this hasn’t been an issue in the past and most of us are driving a fair distance so it’s best to watch your consumption.
Of course no smoking inside the facility.
