[SGVLUG] Bad news -- BC is closing and we need a new meeting place - Suggestions

[Janet Reinhold]

Are you all located in Pasadena?

 

In GLENDORA – the Peppertree Café on Route 66 has a meeting room. It can accommodate your group. It has a screen that pulls down from the ceiling and tables you can lay out for a head table (or speaker’s table) and for a group. It’s free but you need to schedule it. You can ask that they take the lunch orders before your presentation, then serve them afterwards. One of the groups I belong to uses this one & Kathy is waitress.

 

Another one that I heard about recently was in SAN DIMAS. The IHOP there has a meeting room. I don’t know how it is set up but there is a Writer’s group who uses it, and it too is free but most attendees order lunch there.

I've used the Seventh Day Adventist Hospital cafeteria in Eagle Rock for meetings.  It's quiet, and there is a lot of space.  Parking on the street, or pay.  Someone could check out Huntington Memorial cafeteria for suitability.  

 

I think Cameron's may have a meeting room.   

 

Thanks,

I'm the speaker. I'll have my evenings free by then, so I'll be there regardless of the venue. I don't happen to have any ideas for a meting venue, unfortunately. I should really get out more. The only place that sprang to mind was McDonald's. There wouldn't happen to be a way for us to meet at the PCC campus, would there?

See you in a few weeks,
Dan

Hi all,

 

I heard from Cheryl from Burger Continental. They are shuttering their doors permanently.  We will have to find a new venue for our future meetings.

 

Please help us find a new place.  Our next meeting is April 9th.  I don't know who our next speaker will be.

 

We need a place that would accommodate about 30 people.  We meet on the 2nd Thursday of the month, but we can change the date if we really have to.  But we would prefer not to.

 

We do presentation meetings, so we want a layout that would allow people to face the speaker and a screen to project on that is visible to the audience.  We have our own projector, so even a white wall would do.  Another nice plus is if there is decent wireless.   

 

One place James and I will look into is the Pasadena Central library auditorium.  However, we will be at risk of being bumped in favor of library events.  We can also try the Hastings Branch library, which is a little on the small side.  But it is pretty late in their reservation cycle, so I don't know if they already have meetings scheduled for our Thursdays.

 

Suggestions?  Find us a place for April 9th, and that will give us some time to worry about the venue for our future meetings.

 

Lan
