[Cynnabar] Searching for a new Meeting site.

[Kay Jarrell via Barony]

I don't see a barrier to the room. I was speaking directly to the owner.
She mentioned that other groups use the space for meetings. I explained we
were planning on 3 Mondays a month.

There is a long tradition of service and fraternal organizations meeting in
restaurants.  Lions Clubs, Optomists, Rotary... in fact Cynnabar did a
short series of talks on historical topics for the Chelsea Rotary Club 20
years ago.  We would be following in this path.

I am proposing we try this for our next meeting, and see if it enables more
or different people to attend. Perhaps this will revitalize our
decision-making process.

What other questions should we All talk about?

Thanks,
Kay
