Hey... we were on a break!
| News - Meetings |
"What's happened to West Cork Open Coffee"? I hear whispers of it on the online grapevine... and the lack of activity here and through other online channels is perhaps making people wonder.
But West Cork Open Coffee is alive and well. The truth is, in the immortal words of Ross from Friends, "We were on a break!".
Earlier in the summer regular attendees decided that we'd hold off on meetings in July and August to accommodate other commitments and scheduling conflicts during school holidays (many of our members run their own businesses from home, and holiday times mean a lot of schedule juggling).
We'll be kicking things off again in September -- middle of the month, middle of the week, middle of the day as usual -- or the second Wednesday (08th) of September at 12:30 in the Kingfisher Bar at the Celtic Ross Hotel in Rosscarbery.
At the moment this will be our usual informal gathering for a coffee and some business related banter -- but if any of you would like to invite a speaker to chat to us about a particular topic, or want to present/discuss something specific with the group please feel free to make suggestions / arrangements and we'll slot it in accordingly.
So... I look forward to seeing you all in Rosscarbery in September, and we'll keep things rolling on a monthly basis from then on.
If you want to chat about West Cork Open Coffee or anything else feel free to contact me: you'll find me in lots of places online.
All the best,
Calvin!

Personally I'm happy enough to keep it as an informal networking get together with some group discussion/brainstorming thrown in. If you'd like something more formal, or a speaker on a particular topic, by all means feel free to volunteer / organise one. Just use the comments / forum below and the Google Group to keep everyone up-to-date. Look forward to seeing you all next Wednesday -- and don't forget, Open Coffee is open to anyone, so feel free to bring a friend or two along to say hello.

Wednesday 13th January, 12.30pm Betty Brosnans (The Gallery upstairs) 58 Pearse Street, Clonakilty I've held off reminding everyone about this meeting thinking that the weather or kids home from school might bring cause to cancel or postpone, but I'm going to be in town anyway myself, so we can hold some kind of meeting with anyone that can make it. Many thanks to Dermot Sullivan, who is letting us use his Gallery for the meeting for January and February, as the Celtic Ross is closed. At least we know there be good food and coffee available for those that are interested. We'll hold off on having a guest Q & A session until another meeting, but can have brainstorming and informal networking. Hope to see you there! Discuss (4 posts)
