Re: Where to hold meetings..

by Tim Keller

David, The issue with the Worcester Public Library is that they close really early, like 5:30pm and if we want to go later we have to start paying. Tim.

I can finagle most any night except Wednesdays. Thursday is easiest here. So a vote to stay Thursdays. I will second the vote for closer to Worcester or South. Leominster requires 50+ minutes of farm lands tour each way and logistics to leave earlier. Leaving earlier is harder with sport after school pickup and other commitments.

For me personally, Worcester area and south of there is the best match. Other areas become difficult. Thursday and Wednesdays usually good, Fridays a bit less.

Tim Selfishly Leominster is closer for us. We can make any evening, whatever works for others works for us. I have access to a conference room at Deven’s MA to host meetings if that is of interest. Its right off route 2. Not as convenient for food place thought this Mexican restaurant gets great reviews. https://www.mybandoleros.com P.

I see what looks like a bunch of people using wireless earbuds when doing a video chat. I am wondering if anyone would share their opinion about them, pros/cons, and if you recommend any certain ones (hoping not a budget strain). Ron
