Comment by Laurie Prindle on July 18, 2012 at 6:07pm: We had a nice turnout at our May mixer which included some friends from the Sustainable Business Alliance, our sister program in Alameda County. We talked about the importance of promoting local businesses in our sustainability efforts. We'll be meeting in the San Ramon Valley in the fall. Stay tuned for more information...

Comment by Laurie Prindle on January 24, 2012 at 11:41am: Our meeting in January was small but some good contacts were made that will help us to increase attendance next time. We enjoyed our time at Steeltown Coffee & Tea in Pittsburg. It's a very comfortable - good sized space. Drinks are yummy! Check out live music and other events at steeltowncoffee.com.

Comment by Laurie Prindle on November 6, 2011 at 7:55pm: Our October mixer was a success. I think there were fifteen of us including 10 of the "usual suspects" as well as several new people. Sundong Kwong of Green Remodel Forum gave a great presentation on practical things we can all do to become more sustainable. We're looking for an appropriate venue in East County for our next mixer in January. I have a few ideas but I'm open to suggestions.

Comment by Laurie Prindle on September 20, 2011 at 8:29pm: Our next event will be an evening mixer on Tuesday, October 18, 2011 from 5pm to 7pm at The Fig Tree (formerly Nibblers) restaurant in Pleasant Hill. Please see the events page for more info.

Comment by Amy Erez on August 24, 2011 at 9:40am: Looking forward to it. It's an exciting time for a new way to meet like-minded people.

Comment by Sheila Hill on August 23, 2011 at 8:59pm: Great! I went to the Slow Foods Delta Diablo Green Drinks Third Thursday last week at Jack's in Pleasant Hill - it was nice (happy hour till 6:30). They also have a roving venue. And there's The Fig Tree (where Nibbler's was). See you soon!

Comment by Laurie Prindle on August 23, 2011 at 8:44pm: The Green Business Network of Contra Costa will resume regular meetings in the Fall with a somewhat different format. We'll have a quarterly evening "mixer" at a different venue in different areas of the county. Our first mixer will be on Tuesday, October 18 from 5 - 7 pm. Place TBD. Stay tuned...more info will follow.
