Coffee and Beer with Think Local First!
Beginning in June we are changing things up a bit here at Think Local First. Our members have spoken and coffee is good, but beer can be better! So, beginning June 21st we will be at The Corner Brewery in Ypsilanti from 5 to 7 pm. All are welcome to stop by have a beer, share a thought, and learn more about TLF.
What does that mean for our Even Thursday Coffee Hour? We decided that was too complicated so we are moving to a First Thursday format. We will be at Zingerman's Next Door from 8 am to 10 am on the first Thursday of every month beginning June 6th.
Now we have two options for members and interested folks to stop and have a conversation. Our Executive Director will be at both events so look for her when you stop by. We look forward to seeing you soon!
