There are a number of SDL and other peer network folks talking about a potential casual meet up in association with Living Future 24 (next week in ATL).

In the interest of Julie McCoy-ing this thing into being ...

Who: All y'all ... any Peer Network folks who are in town for LF24 (or local to ATL).

Why: Connecting is everything.

When: It looks like there are two offical evening events on Wednesday, so perhaps Tuesday would be the better date for this?

Where: I am scouting for an appropriate location in ATL, close to Centennial Park. We need a casual bar with some scale ... this gathering could wind up being a dozen of us or as many as three dozen or so.

Send me your suggestions and thoughts ... any/all ideas are welcome!

Shifting gears:
It seems like WED evening might be a better time to catch more folks ...between the reception (at Omni, I believe) and the after hours (a Lyft ride away at Northside Tavern).

We'll find a location walkable to Omni for a meet up 7-830pm.

At present (and with gratitude to the ATL folks who helped me out), Park Bar or Der Biergarten are the leading contenders ... anyone with personal intel about the practicality of a meet up of unknown scale at one of those, feel free to weigh in before we nail this down.

Here's the plan ...

Building Green Peer Networks Meet Up / aka Rogues' Gallery
Wednesday, 8 May / 7-830pm
Park Bar, 150 Walton Street, ATL
https://www.parkbaratlanta.com/

Please spread the word. A couple of us will try to get there a little early and corner some space on the patio or at one end of a room.
(We do not have a reservation or private room at the moment. Rogues wing it ...)

If you have questions (or want me to put this on your calendar with an invite), LMK:
