Heading for Hollywood?
Plymouth to open Plymouth Rock Studios

PLYMOUTH, Mass. (WWLP) - Massachusetts is one step closer to having its own "Hollywood." The state's environmental chief has cleared the way for a proposed movie studio in Plymouth to move to the design and permitting phase. Massachusetts Environmental Affairs Secretary granted Plymouth Rock Studios a final waiver to build an access road and related infrastructure. Plymouth Rock Studios is expected to include 14 sound stages, a 10-acre back lot, and a theater on a 242-acre site. Supporters say the project is expected to generate more than 2-thousand jobs and develop into a unique tourist attraction. WWLP news link

Plymouth Rock Studios has struck a deal to buy Waverly Oaks Golf Club as the site for what it says will be a world-class movie and television production campus. A formal announcement was expected today . “This is a beautiful site and completely different from anything in Los Angeles County,” Plymouth Rock Studios founder David Kirkpatrick said. “That’s what we were looking for, a habitat different from Los Angeles County.” Patriot Ledger news link

Weather or not!

CLOVERDALE CITRUS FAIR. This is another 3 day event and they are expecting tons of rain this weekend. Not a good weekend for vendors. Loads of rain for Whiskey Flat Days in Kernville.

We will be at the Chabot College Flea Market next Saturday and it is supposed to rain. Matter of fact, we have at least 9 days of rain coming up and that is why I like doing shows in Arizona. It rained twice during the four weeks we were there. Any time you sign up for a show in Northern California from Jan-Mar, you are putting your dollars at risk. The tough times get tougher! Going to have to head over to COSTCO and pick up those boxes of Cup-O-Noodles.

Craftmaster News new feature

CRAFTMASTER NEWS subscribers. New feature. You are now able to provide reviews of events you have done. Select a time period from last year and scroll down and find events you have done. Select one and then you will see an area at the bottom of the page provided for your reviews. Luckily, you might find other reviews also. Tim just started this and I think it's a great idea. I really love to hear what others have to say about their shows and it provides insight for me. It's a lot better than the reviews on the paper copies of CFG because you just don't see those 'one liners'.

If you want to read more reviews of events, please go to my website, Starving Vendors where I have detailed descriptions of many events we have done over the years along with loads of other information, etc. Go to the menu and choose Guide to Shows>Events and then choose the dates. We have just finished doing shows in Tyson Wells. Sell-a-Rama and the Arts & Crafts Show. I also have reviews from last year of upcoming shows.
