As we celebrate America’s 250th Birthday this year, you are cordially invited to join us for our inaugural Civics, Conversation & Coffee Series for an insightful hour of civic awareness and engagement in a non-partisan setting. This venue has its origins in our country’s founding, as colonists and early Americans met in a friendly environment, such as a tavern or village green, to discuss important issues of their day.
Our Civics, Conversation & Coffee Series will be all of that – and more.
Like our forefathers, we will provide a forum to bring neighbors together for civic awareness and engagement, except that we will be substituting a cup of coffee for a tankard of ale.
To keep the atmosphere casual, relaxed and engaging, please bring your favorite cup of coffee, tea or beverage to enjoy during the session.
Our speakers will share their expertise about important issues and what they mean for our community. Topics may include talks on local government, legislative updates, public policy, U.S. History and other interesting subjects that matter to you.
Presentations will be followed with a Q & A session where you will have the opportunity to have interactive discussions with our guest speakers and each other.
This is a great opportunity to get informed on the issues shaping our world today while connecting with others over a morning brew.
