Official "NAME"
Did you know that our OFFICIAL name is simply
"OLD SCHOOL SATURDAY?"
(no other words included---haha)
Please help us by CORRECTING YOUR FRIENDS if they make the simple error of calling our event "1st Sat" or "2nd Sat" or any other variation. This will help them to be accurate...and it will help them to AVOID MISSING OUR EVNTS (because they "think" it is scheduled on a specific day of the month---LOL).

In fact, we actually have a United States Federal Trademark registered as:
"Old School Saturday"
(yep, we're THAT serious--smile).
Scheduling
Did you know we may schedule an OSS event for "ANY Saturday" of the month---not just on a specific Saturday? Yes, yes, yessssss.... our events may be scheduled on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th Saturday (it may change month-to-month).
Our event is simply called "Old School Saturday"
(not O.S. "First Sat, Second Sat, Third Sat"----LOL).
The best way to KNOW WHEN the next event is scheduled is to join our e-list and/or visit our website often (smile).
