RMNP Regional Shindig (Meetup)!

Hey @RMNP photographers, the shindig is back and is open to all current and past NPN members! @Brent_Doerzman and I are organizing this event which has been a huge success in the past. Brent has generously offered up his work space to host the event again, the last one was in 2014!

We would love to see a shindig happen in other areas as well, please contact me if you would like to volunteer to host your own shindig!

What it is

The shindig is a get together for NPN members to meet face to face, drink some beers and have a laid back good time with friends, and to meet new friends. We will have a white elephant print exchange which is optional to participate in. There will also be giveaways of books, ebooks, and more…

What to bring

  • Bring your own beer, soda, water
  • Bring some munchies like chips, cookies, veggie plate, etc.
  • A camp chair if you want to sit, most people stand though.
  • One of your favorite prints for the print exchange, if you want to participate. Can be a loose print, framed, duraplaq, whatever suits you. You pick the size. Please cover your print so it is a surprise!
