Sir Matthew:
I regret I can not come out for this event, as I will be at School of the Musketeer at Fort Mifflin, Philadelphia, Pa.  I wish the two events did not overlap, as I would love to come out to MTT and the trip would not be to terribly long from where I live in York, Pa.  In any case, all who are going have a good time, I know I surely will. 

Sir Wolf:
ya i know a few people said they were going to the school that weekend. when you go, stop by Reconstructing History booth and tell Bob and Kass that "Chuck" says "HI!"

Sir Brian:
Sorry but my love and I have plans to attend NCRF this coming weekend!  :-\

Das Bill:
Afraid I can't make it yet again.

I feel that events like these (I'm thinking MTA in particular) are very poorly advertised. I haven't heard a thing about it until reading your post here, even though I know the event goes on every year. There should be advertisements in places like myArmoury and SFI, and they should be well in advance. (If I'd known about this at least a couple of days ago, I would have kept my schedule clear.) I would really like to attend one of these at least once. In fact, if I knew in advance, I could tell my students about it in advance. I think these events would get more people if that were the case.
