The last Green Drinks event was a great time! We had about 15 people who had some very interesting backgrounds and conversations. If you haven't been it is a great experience to network & meet new people who are interested in similar topics. This month's green drinks event will be on a new time at a new place....6 pm at Chocolate and Vines 757 University Avenue Rochester, NY 14607 Phone: 585.340.6362. Kimie and Jamie Romeo are the current co/coordinators for the group. If you are an environmental enthusiast in the Greater Rochester area you probably know one or both. You also likely know this means our speakers/topics will be lively and networking opportunities plentiful. Kimie and Jamie encourage businesses to sponsor food at the events and are busy prospecting a few favorite gathering spots, as well as some key speakers. Chocolate & Vines offers artisan chocolates, European desserts, and a build-your-own gourmet cheese plate - all carefully chosen to pair with over 75 wines and beers available. Delightful organic, fair trade teas and french pressed coffees served.
So after speaking with the friendly staff over at Bay Creek Paddling Center (http://www.baycreek.c...) we have a few options. You can bring your own Kayak if you have one and launch off their docks for a $5 docking fee and paddle around the bay. For rentals I think it works out to $12 an hour. There is the option of taking shuttle bus to Ellison Park to put in for a 2.5 hour trip back to Baycreek. I think the paddling around the bay would work best for most of the group but we can always do the 2.5 hr trip if people want to do it! Please RSVP with Bay Creek for the 22nd if you plan to go cause spots fill up quick. Also, If you could let Rochester Green Living know by RSVP @ http://www.meetup.com.... Please feel free to call Peter at 585 200 0526 with any other questions or suggestions about the trip. Thanks!
Cheers,
Peter
