Thread: Mermaid MeetUp!!!

  1. #1

    Red face Mermaid MeetUp!!!

    Hi everyone just wanted to make a post now just in case if anyone *is* interested it gives you plenty of time to look and see if you’re interested in joining! I’m hoping to be able to get a big group of people to do a mermaid photoshoot (which doubles as a body positivity shoot) and swim at the San Marcos river in September! Anyone is welcome to come and join I thought it’d be a fun way to find new people to work with, meet, and a new style to shoot for all of the photographers that will be joining us!💗 any questions please let me know! I’m just trying to gauge how many people are interested before setting anything up as I know a lot of people work and may need to travel! ☺️

    Awesome! I am local to the San Marcos area and am stoked to have more mermaid friends come up to swim with! If anyone wants to plan an earlier trip up to swim together as soon as it warms up a little I'd love to meet any of you and I'm always up for a dip in the river.

    I'm also the Director of Mermaid Programming for Mermaid Society SMTX and am super excited to see more and more mermaids planning to join in the fun in September!!! We hope some of you will also join us in our year round activities and Educational Outreach Efforts. Reach out via fb or the website if you'd like to get involved.

    Omg yes definitely do you mind sending me your Facebook page so I can spread awareness in the cosplay community as well? ☺️

    I'm not far from San Marcos at all! I'm probably a lot younger than most people interested in attending, but I'd love to come. I might not have a super-duper-snazzy tail, but I'd be super happy to meet some more mermaids in my vicinity!

    It's also really cool to know there's another mermaid in the local cosplay community!

    Omg yes this sounds awesome! Been wanting to have some close meet ups! Since most are in Dallas and Houston.
    Earlier sounds great too because seems like the water starts getting cold the end of August or could just be me being west of San Antonio. I’m Texas raised so 60 degree water is not for me

    I don't know where I'll be or what I'll be doing in September, but unless I'm out of state (unlikely) I'll do my best to make it there! I don't get to go to meetups very often because they're usually in the Dallas area and that's a little further than I want to drive. (without a lot of advance notice, anyway) I have a waterproof camera myself, it's not a fancy one, but I'd really like to take pictures as well as swim.

    I'd totally be down for an earlier date too. My current job ends at the end of July, so anything before that I should be able to make it to, at least if I have enough notice.

    I may be depending on the date. Idk if I can get any mer friends where I am to go. Anyone up to letting me rent a room in their home to silence my fear of bed bugs from hotels?

    Did we ever decide on an earlier meetup ? I’d love to hear some ideas? Especially during warmer weather!

    I would be interested in a San Antonio meetup in late April. Thoughts?

    Late April would be too soon for me. What's the water temp like (I'm used to 60s) around then? Are we wanting a weekend or weekday thing?

    Mermaid MeetUp!!!

    Late April San Antonio is fine with me. Indoor ? Cause I think it’s still pretty cold then since we don’t have the humid like on the coast to keep the water warm.
    Weekday or weekend is no problem either.

    I can definitely go but I'd need to know what day soon cause if it's a day I work then I'd have to tell my job ahead of time

    Late April should work for me too, if there's enough notice.

    Would it be IN San Antonio or around it?

    Honestly I think April in San Marcos is too cold for an outside meetup. Growing up in SETX (Crystal Beach Galveston area) we do not have the humidity like on the coast. So unless we’re looking at indoor I think we should push this back to June or July?

    I’m okay with either option.
