> [@Someone](#): > > When and where are the parties? 🙂 What about organizing a virtual international party here in the forum on October 16th? Maybe starting at a specific time. It could be a no-topic chatty thread in which everyone can share photos of TWP merchandise, ThimbleCon memorabilia or simply cool images about TWP. @RonGilbert could promote the event on social media and maybe also distribute a few gifts. 😛 @All : Would you attend a virtual ThimbleCon anniversary event, have some fun and hope for gifts? 😛 ---
