Hey all,
I've learned that the library in my town is open to the public for
hosting club meetings! More info:
Some of the benefits I can think of for having meetings at the library
include:
- Free hosting
- Free public wifi
- Free on-site parking
- Low noise levels
- Projector and whiteboard are available
- Books, music, movies, etc, are available for checking out

- Adjacent to many restaurants, most having outdoor seating
- Has EV charging stations nearby
- Access to well-maintained walking trails and public parks
Cons:
- Conference room capacity is capped at 10 occupants
- Meetings must end 15 minutes before library's closing time, so would
have to end at 8:15PM
- Many restaurants might be closed by 9PM
I could imagine going back to our usual monthly meetings, from 7:00PM
to 8:15PM on Thursdays, then walking over to one of the restaurants
next door for food and drinks. I can personally vouch for these local
establishments, all reachable within a 5 minute walk:
What do you think?
