Hey nerdydave, I think Patch announced his retirement from OFC Calendar production last year. Know what you mean about missing the calendar, Bernie! I still have all my previous years calendars and lust over all of your Os!

Yes, I've retired and will miss it as well. It's gotten to the point where I have to pick up so much extra work anymore, that I truly just ran out of time for a project this size. And it doesn't help that I have a conscience that can't live with just throwing something together. Every member here deserves better than that.

Even if I had planned on doing the calendars this year, having Covid force all of my courses online (Teaching is my part-time gig.) would have killed any aspirations I had anyway. You wouldn't believe how much additional work is required to convert all of my in-class materials and build modules to any reasonable standard! And it's not like I had loads of warning or support from the colleges to do it.

Still, I wish I could keep the calendar project going. It was something I quite enjoyed. Hopefully someone in the future can pick up the torch though. If they do, I'll be on the buyers' list for certain.

In the meantime, I hope you are all staying safe and healthy!

What a crazy year!

I had offered to pick up the calendar duties from Patch, but then, like him, life got in the way.

I am still willing to take up the yoke, but it's not going to happen for this year's calendar.

From all I heard, Patch did a great job with the calendars. But when Brad passed away, I just kinda felt like the time of calendars (that I was a part of) had come and gone. Still feel that way.....

Yay Dan! Coming from your shop it's bound to be a great product, and a worthy torch passing from Patch's awesome work.

I miss them as well. Was just clearing a shelf in the spare room last week and came across a stack of them from 2006-2014.

I cringe a little every time I volunteer for something.

So there will be a next year? I heard it was canceled since this one was never really used.

So I may regret this....I may be able to pull this off...maybe not in time for Christmas - but close....it may be a one year commitment.... to keep the fire burning....in the mean time go ahead and say how many you would want - and the country they would be shipped to - and the top price you would want to pay turnkey each with shipping....I don't plan to make a dime, but I am not in a position to lose a crap ton of money either....touring pit orchestra gigs are few and far between....good thing I have a real job.

Heck, Mark, I'll pay $35 just out of curiosity to see what you can come up with on such short notice. Chalk me up for 1.

I think I set up a Google drop box last time. It got the job done, but there might be better ones out there.
