Up Opportunity

Hello there folks!

A wonderful game by the name of Serenity Station has a few leftover props that we would greatly like to get our hands on, and which they have been willing to let go to a good home (in other words, us). However, we've got to transport them ourselves from Pepperell, on Route 3 towards Nashua, about an hour northwest of Boston.

As such, next weekend I am looking for a few folks to help me retrieve said items from northern Mass and bring them back down to the Boston area, to my place in Belmont, to store until it comes time to bring them to game. We're talking some big props here, people size, and so we're either looking for a big truck, a few trucks, or renting a truck. If it comes down to renting one, we'll still be looking for a few people to help us move stuff around, and UP will be commensurate to cost of the whole endeavor/your contribution.

If you're interested and have time to help next weekend, or a truck to lend, let me know here or via private message.

Thanks!

-Josh

P.S. I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone at game!

Hi there everyone!

Updates:
We have a truck! Hooray! Now we just need people to help move stuff. There will be UP for those who wish to give a hand, it will be in the afternoon this Saturday. Please post here, we will have more details soon as to where we will be leaving from, but it will likely be T accessible from the Red Line or else the 73 Bus in Belmont.

Thanks!

T accessible from the red line = I will be there. :3

Might be able to do the 73 bus.

You can catch the 73 bus at Harvard Square, if you're taking the Red Line. You'll want the Waverly Square bound bus. It runs about every 20 minutes and, provided we're leaving from where I assume we're leaving from, is a ~10 minute ride into Belmont. Very doable.

Ok, so here goes: plan will be to leave 393 Belmont St in Belmont (right near Payson bus stop, across from Golf Course) at 11:30 am, noon at latest, arrive in Pepperell by 1:00 pm or so. Load, hopefully be done by 2:00 pm, maybe grab Lunch, head back, arrive back by 3:00 pm or so. I will be driving unless someone wants to volunteer to do so, I have space for up to five friendly people in my car.

My cell is Seven eight one six zero eight five four four five in case you need to reach me.

Looking forward to seeing people!

PS If you have not posted here and decide to show, please call ahead so I know to expect you. Thanks!

It's an hour long drive... much more fun to talk Larping with people! Probably won't need more than 4 total so we have two for each end of these things as worst case scenario.
